WIFT NZ Events

This screening is for TAURANGA

Chelsie Preston Crayford, actor, writer, and force of nature, has made her debut feature film, and we're celebrating! Join us for a special WIFT screening of Caterpillar (2026), bubbles in hand, followed by a Q&A with some of the women who brought it to life.

Set in an early-2000s Wellington household, Caterpillar follows three generations of women navigating love, ambition and change. Single mother Maxine (Marta Dusseldorp) is chasing her filmmaking dreams on a shoestring. Teenage daughter Cassie (Anaïs Shand) is figuring out who she is. And grandmother Huia (Lisa Harrow) quietly faces a dementia diagnosis, retreating into a tender fascination with monarch butterflies as her mind begins to shift.

If you've ever juggled a creative dream with the demands of family life, this is guaranteed to hit close to home.

After the screening, stay for a Q&A with Georgina Condor (Producer), Lisa Harrow (Lead Actor)

The Q&A will be moderated by Emma Powers

$18 for WIFT members, $22 for Non-members
