A Woman's Tale
1991 · 1h 33m · Comedy, Drama · Australia · Rated PG-13 (US)
Uplifting and intimate look at the last days of an elderly cancer victim. The film is even more relevant as it was written specifically for the lead actress, Sheila Florance, who was in fact dying of cancer as she created what is essentially a self-portrait.
