Gillian Armstrong documentary about flamboyant design pioneer, Florence Broadhurst, who was born in outback Australia, 1899. The story of a wallpaper designer might not sound interesting, but the critics say it is due to the strength of the characters. A singer and dancer in Shanghai in the 20s, Broadhurst ran her own fashion design company in London in the 30s, and made an entrance into the Sydney social scene as a painter and charity fund raiser later on in her life.
At the age of 60, she began her most successful incarnation as designer of bold, exotic wallpapers. She was murdered in mysterious circumstances at the age of 78 in Sydney, a crime which has never been solved.
