![]() ![]() ![]() In many ways, the success of the film The Piano paved the way for New Zealand-born director Jane Campion. It is also often considered as special since the romantic (and erotic) scenes were directed by a woman, which was very unusual at the time. The film is set in the 19 th century, but looking back, the film can also be seen as an interesting representation of the time in which it was made. The rugged country can be considered a character in itself. The Piano is a big screen beauty shot in picture-perfect New Zealand. At first, Ada despises George, but slowly their relationship changes, propelling them into a dire situation. Ada suffers anguish and loss when Stewart sells her piano to a neighbor, George, as the piano at least provided her with some means of communication.Īda learns from George that she can get her piano back by giving him piano lessons, but only under certain conditions. Life in the rugged forests of New Zealand's North Island is not what she imagined, nor is her relationship with her new husband, Stewart. ![]()
