Works about this Work

An Interview with Clara Law Kathryn Millard (interviewer), 2001 single work interview
— Appears in: Senses of Cinema , April-May no. 13 2001;
'I remember seeing Clara Law's film Floating Life at the Sydney Film Festival in 1995. I was charmed and amused by its particular take on suburban Australia, moved by its musings on the quest for a sense of home. And drawn to its sense of poetry and design. I re-visited other films by Clara Law. The almost breathtakingly beautiful Temptation of a Monk (1993) and the intriguing Autumn Moon (1992). I spoke with Clara recently about her new film, The Goddess of 1967.' (Author's introduction)
