Helen is a documentary that explores the life and political story of former New Zealand Prime Minister Helen Clark. Interweaving period archive and intimate interviews with contemporary footage of Helen Clark at her job at the United Nations, Helen tells the inside story of the woman who broke the mould, in her own words and those of her family, friends, colleagues, critics and political opponents. Her story takes us from a farm in the Waikato, to a flash job in New York. It’s both an extraordinary story and a very Kiwi one.
