Marti: the passionate eye traces the dramatic personal story of Marti Friedlander, one of New Zealand’s leading photographers, alongside the major social changes she recorded. She has photographed New Zealand’s best-known artists in their studios, collaborated with Michael King on a famous series of Maori portraits, and documented many protest activities including the Springbok Tour and the Women’s Movement. Marti talks frankly about the art of photography, her life, and the fascinating people and events she has portrayed.

Marti won best documentary at the Jewish Eye - World Jewish Film Festival in Israel in 2006 and was selected from over 600 entries as one of only 20 films to partake in the Berlin DOKU.ARTS Festival last year.
