White
Lies
(2013)
Johnny's
comments:
White Lies is a drama
about Maori medicinal
healer/midwife Paraiti
(Whirimako Black) who when
on a trip to the city is
approached by housemaid
Maraea (Rachel House) to
help with the pregnancy of
her mistress, Rebecca
(Antonia Prebble from
Outrageous Fortune and The
Blue Rose). Rebecca wants
to get rid of the child
that she is almost at full
term with as her currently
absent husband does not
know of this pregnancy and
would not approve of it.
Their meeting is prickly,
so Paraiti declines to
help even with the promise
of being paid well. But
when Paraiti sees what
happens when one of her at
risk pregnant patients is
handled under 'white'
conditions, Paraiti
decides to help Rebecca to
make things right. But,
there are a few secrets
about the pregnant, ones
that are so damaging that
would lead to Rebecca
being exposed and with her
husband coming home in a
matter of days, the birth
needs to happen quickly.
It doesn't help that
Paraiti and Maraea clash
constantly over the care
of Rebecca.
Interesting look at Maori
culture clashing with
white culture that is well
acted and has a
surprisingly hopeful
ending despite tragedy.
The birthing scene is very
full on, so it's not for
the faint of heart.
In the interviews on the
DVD, Antonia mentions at
least a half a dozen times
that she had a problem
with the nudity in this
movie and took a long
while before accepting the
role. So, here are her
first nude scenes...
