Haunting Douglas
Aroview: Mesmerising exploration of renowned New Zealand contemporary dance performer and choreographer Douglas Wright, featuring generous excerpts of his work with companies such as Limbs, The Royal New Zealand Ballet and Paul Taylor's dance company in New York.
Wright is a challenging focus for a documentary owing in part to his aversion towards celebrity and personal revelation, but dir. Leanne Pooley manages a sincere and fascinating incorporation of this into her film, creating an unmissable and powerful portrayal of a remarkable artist.
