Vincent Ward is back at the helm of the film "River Queen" after being asked to direct post production of the movie in London according to The Dominion Post.
Cinematographer Alun Bollinger had replaced Vincent Ward in November as director of the film. Even though Ward was unable to finish the last few weeks of principal photography, the production team maintained contact with Vincent and followed his set plans during this time. Ward developed the story and co-wrote the screenplay.
The feature tells of a young woman's search to find her kidnapped son during the height of the wars between colonial troops and Maori. Shooting of the Anglo-New Zealand co-production finished at the end of November and the film is expected to be completed by the end of March 2005.
