Writer-director Carol Morley reimagines the life of forgotten British artist Audrey Amiss in this typically inventive feature, starring Monica Dolan and Kelly Macdonald.
Typist Artist Pirate King puts forgotten artist Audrey Amiss on the map. Inspired by her extensive archive of diaries, letters and art, the film weaves real events into an imagined journey as Audrey goes on a road trip with her psychiatric nurse. Filled with adventure, humour and compassion.
