4 stars (Very Good) The moving true story of NZ politician Sonja Davies early life, a young independent socialist embarking on a career in nursing during World War II. Terrific performance, and a lovely tribute. ~GenXGirl
0 star (Not rated) I look for NZ movies to buy, mostly to send overseas as gifts. I ordered this and watched it . It is captivating and beautifully produced. There are so many issues raised, all based on an autobiography. I will send one and order another to keep. ~ETC
