‘Caterpillar’ hits cinemas today 🐛
Set in an early-2000s Wellington household, three generations of women navigate love, ambition, and change. Single mother Maxine chases her filmmaking dreams, teenage daughter Cassie faces growing pains, and grandmother Huia quietly grapples with dementia, retreating into her fascination with monarch butterflies.
Directed by Chelsie Preston Crayford in her feature debut, ‘Caterpillar’ is a tender, female-led story about family, resilience, and transformation, brought to life by Lisa Harrow, Anais Shand, and Marta Dusseldorp.
🦋 Catch the trailer at NZ On Screen.
