Typist Artist Pirate King at Galway Film Festival

  • Galway Film Festival Merchants Road Galway, G, H91 YX82 Ireland (map)

Directed and written by acclaimed British auteur Carol Morley, this film shines a light on an obscure female outsider artist through an imagined road trip across a modern yet quasi-mythic England.

In a last-ditch mission to get recognition for her talent, Sunderland-born artist, Audrey Amiss, played brilliantly by Monica Dolan, persuades her psychiatric nurse, Sandra Panza to take her on a road trip back to where her story began – but with so many deviations along the way, will they ever make it?

Typist Artist Pirate King is a testament to female creativity both in form and in content. Oscar winner Jane Campion is Executive Producer.
