A program of films by the Armed with a Camera (AWC) Fellowship for Emerging Media Artists class of 2023. This year’s cohort is comprised of filmmakers of Pasifika descent who have produced 6 heartfelt pieces from the diaspora. From a kitchen in Utah to the ‘āina of Hawai’i, the ties that bind them together as children of the moana are ancestral connection, family and a little food for the soul.
Stunning Hawai’i backdrops frame this touching drama about a Tongan brother and sister at rugby practice. Recovering from a recent injury and rejected from another University, Alofa is ready to give up. Meanwhile, her brother Malu races against time to encourage his sister and pass on valuable life lessons before it’s too late.
