6 Thursday January 11 2024 Director ‘determined to raise awareness’ WONDEROUS WOMEN: Though I Walk (2020) was Cameron’s first documentary, which follows four Christian women who have experienced breast cancer. • From page 5 “I’ve had a lot of response throughout, and I was surprised, gobsmacked really, at how many people want to talk about their stillbirths. “When you get pregnant, you spend a lot of time with the baby even before it is born. Nine months of waiting in anticipation and excitement. “Every parent wants to celebrate their child’s birth but when one loses them, it seems no one feels comfortable to even say the baby’s name. “I believe parents need this space to talk about this trauma and still celebrate their baby. People have thanked the family for being brave, and they feel like they’ve been given a voice.” Cameron said she underestimated how much this documentary would affect her. “As a friend, it was not a good feeling watching my friends through my camera, reliving their pain,” she said. “But at the end of the day, once the film is done, I get to walk away. That is it for me. The family though, has to live with it, and that’s difficult.” Cameron also said Ben Collins, in particular, has a special reach with father figures of those going through the same situation. “Ben is a typical tradie-rugbylike bloke, who was openly crying and very emotional during the interviews. I hope the film encourages other fathers to speak out and be vulnerable,” she said. “In Christchurch alone, about 60-70 babies per year are stillborn. My eyes are open and I am determined to advocate and raise awareness for the families who go through this. “I hope The Garden Room creates conversations. Grayson has such a legacy now; because of him, this story was able to come to fruition.” Cameron finished raising more than $20,000 in December, on the Boosted crowdfunding platform, for post-production colour and sound design so the film can be released into cinemas. ‘Trauma can be so isolating and telling their hard stories gives me a purpose, because if it’s not me, who else?’ – Kirsty Cameron Award-winning colourist Damian McDonnell from Wellington has worked on titles including Our Flag Means Death, Elvis, Mortal Engines, The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies, and several Marvel films. He will be working on the film with Ben Edwards from Lyttleton, who was named producer of the year at the 2017 New Zealand music awards and will work on the sound. Said Cameron: “Damian approached me and offered his skills at over 50 per cent discount of his usual rate because he believes this is a story that needs to be told. “How incredible is it that he will be working on my little Kiwi film?” It is not the first time Cameron has wanted to tell a story about trauma. Her first documentary, Though I Walk (2020), follows four Christian women on their journeys through breast cancer and tackles the question: “Where is God when your world falls apart?” In her final year of studying for a motion design degree at Ara, Cameron directed and produced the film which was featured on New Zealand, Australian and American television. “Originally, Though I Walk was meant to be about five minutes long. I had a dear friend who went through breast cancer and needed to have a double mastectomy. “I wanted to tell the story of these women’s journey, and how they coped with a new sense of self-identity. The four women who were featured in the film made it the success it is.” Cameron said there is a premiere in the pipeline for next year, to celebrate The Garden Room regardless of whether it gets into festivals. • To find out more about The Garden Room, go to https://www.facebook. com/thegardenroommovie • To find out more about stillbirth, go to https:// www.sands.org.nz For Almost EVERY WAY You Can Hurt It… There’s an Elastastrap or Thermastrap to help it. • Clinically developed to assist injury management. • From shoulders, backs and elbows to knees and ankles. • Easy to put on and take off, never too tight or too loose. • Find the one that suits you now - and get back to doing what you love.
