Hero image for Daffodils

Daffodils

Film (Trailer) – 2019

How well do you know your parents? It's easy to forget they were once young, beautiful, crazy things.
– Maisey Williams (played by musician Kimbra)
When I first saw Daffodils the play I thought it was a piece of work so beautiful, so powerful and so inherently cinematic, that I knew this was an endeavour I could pour my heart and soul into.
– Director David Stubbs, New Zealand Film Commission press release, 21 February 2018
I think there is a freshness about Daffodils in terms of our culture and music that will appeal. It has a strong classic storyline with the universal themes of love and regret and involves great Kiwi music. We are confident it will appeal to people overseas.
– Director David Stubbs on Daffodils, Stuff, 7 October 2016
