AGM details will be sent to members shortly via email, and film details are below:
Director Tony Sutorius describes this documentary as "Helen Kelly’s last year fighting injustice, with love". Sutorius (Campaign) filmed the renowned trade unionist as she battled lung cancer and continued advocating. Kelly was a staunch advocate for better safety standards in the Kiwi forestry industry, and sought justice through the courts for families of Pike River mine victims. This trailer shows Kelly's health deteriorating, but not her sense of humour — "shut the door, some of us don't have long to live" — and includes brief but harrowing footage from the Pike River disaster.
