"Award-winning director Madeleine Hetherton-Miau’s latest offering is an
evocative and hard-hitting documentary with a strong message.
Mozart’s Sister
investigates the life of Maria Anna Mozart, the older sister of the more famous
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
The film portrays a sensitive and well-researched investigation into Maria
Anna’s life – illuminating how the draconian attitudes that prevailed during
her time condemned her to a lesser life than her brother, even though she was
similarly talented.
It also reminds us of the importance of championing women musicians today, as
“if we don’t encourage women now, it (discrimination) only repeats”."
