Overview
A short film by mixed generation creators about a reclusive hoarder forced to confront the ghosts of her glamorous past.
Dorothy, a 51 year old transgender woman lives quietly in a rural beach town with an outrageous garden and fading memories of a vibrant past.
Her life changes when a bold teenager approaches her after a confrontation. His curiosity stirs Dorothy’s buried grief.
Memories of a life left behind and a partner she lost to HIV/AIDS begin to resurface. As they dive deep into her hoard of eclectic keepsakes, reality begins to blur, giving way to a surreal world that triggers tensions.

ALL DONE! Congratulations!!! 🌼 ⭐️
Kia ora lovely donors,
Thank you so much for backing our fabulous film. Your support means more than we can say. In times like these, supporting creativity and storytelling is incredibly important, and it’s heart warming to know there’s a community willing to stand behind local voices and local stories.
Because of you, we’re now able to move forward with the next stage of the journey. Over the coming month we’ll be deep in storyboarding, script revisions, rehearsals, prop making etc... as we bring everything together for the shoot!
Please keep an eye on our socials for behind the scenes updates and progress as the film takes shape 💖
All the aroha,
The Fly By Ms Magpie crew
