Celia, directed by Amanda Millar, captures the legacy and final days of social advocate, world-class storyteller and international author Celia Lashlie.


 

In Amanda’s first feature film, Celia Lashlie talks openly about her life, her work and her dream of a better New Zealand.

It explores the transformational effect of this one charismatic woman in the lives of some of the most at-risk people in the country.

Following sell-out screenings at NZIFF in 2018 and a general release, it’s available to stream on DocPlay and Beamafilm, and to rent from NZ Film On Demand, AroVision and Apple TV.
