The name Audrey Amiss will be unknown to most of us. This is because until filmmaker Carol Morley, director of acclaimed films Dreams of a Life and The Falling, discovered eighty-four boxes of Amiss’ uncatalogued work when she was awarded the Wellcome Screenwriting Fellowship, Amiss had gone completely unnoticed by the British art world. Typist Artist Pirate King, Morley’s recent feature, remedies this. Based on Amiss’ life, the film is a fictional imagining of a trip Amiss takes with her psychiatric nurse, Sandra, to present her work to a gallery in Sunderland, Amiss’ birthplace and the sight of an incident that left her with severe mental health issues for the duration of her life.
