Summary:

"Campion is one of the few women film-makers working today who has managed to create a unique body of work. A true independent film-maker, yet she also attracts Hollywood superstars to her films. This book covers Campion's remarkable career, reflecting on the influence of her study in anthropology as well as her formative years growing up in New Zealand."--Publisher's description.
