Aunty and the Star People

Filmmaker Gerard Smyth has completed this outstanding full-length documentary about the life of Jean and her work with the children. It is screening in the NZ International Film Festival in Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch, Dunedin, Nelson, Hawkes Bay, Tauranga and Hamilton.

See the trailer http://www.nziff.co.nz/2014/wellington/aunty-and-the-star-people/ and find a screening near you on the nziff site.

It will help Jean’s and the Trust’s work if you let your friends know about the film and the Karunai Illam Trust website.  Apart from Jean’s travel costs and other incidental expenses, no-one is paid as all work for the Trust in NZ is through volunteers; over 90% of all donations to the Trust is sent to the home and children in India.
