The prize
Following its premiere screenings at the NZIFF, My Year With Helen returns to New Zealand cinemas for a general release on August 31. With unique access to high-ranking candidate Helen Clark, award-winning filmmaker Gaylene Preston casts a wry eye on proceedings as the United Nations turns itself inside-out choosing a new Secretary-General. An observational documentary, My Year With Helen travels alongside Clark as she works on global development issues as head of the UNDP while also campaigning for SG and staying in daily contact with her 94-year-old father back in New Zealand.
“The film conveys how tough it is to break the remaining glass ceilings. May it motivate future generations of women to keep at it!” - Helen Clark
