A state of siege

Malfred Signal leaves her life of stifling gentility (as an art teacher in a South Island private girls school), and decides to live out her dream - painting alone in the remote North. One terrifying night, beset by a prowler, but confronting only her own image at every step, she relives her past. A State of Siege articulates a tense and strange poetry of life, in a social and spiritual backwater. Where the apparent uniformity and calm holds unfamiliar experience and unknown dangers.
