Acclaimed film director James Cameron says investment and innovation, especially in the film sector, is the key to Wellington’s future.

Cameron spoke at Vision for Wellington’s inaugural public event and said the capital’s film sector sets it apart from other cities in New Zealand - but needs more financial support from the Government.

SPADA President Irene Gardiner says Wellington's film sector brings more money into the economy if a film performs well - and she agrees with Cameron's sentiments.
