Manoa DNA - “Our Hawai’i”

Administrator — Fri, 05 Feb 2010 03:20:54 +0000

There’s a feeling that I get when I walk through Hanapepe,
Oh the spirit’s calling out to me.
Mother nature whispers, birds begin to sing,
And the waves start to rumble, crashing on the reef.

It’s the smell of the ocean, when I wake up in the morning.
The sun peaks its head above Leahi.
The warm summer heat, blazing on the beach,
Gives me time to relax, with the sand beneath my feet.

People come, from far and wide,
Just to live the true Hawaiian style.
Share a moment that you’ve always dreamed,
In our Hawai’i.

Feel the Aloha, from Hanalei to Kona
Haleakala climbs up to heaven.
Grasp every moment, taste it oh so sweet.
Paradise is the answer, life is complete.

Noho Hewa Trailer

Administrator — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 06:58:45 +0000

In the Hawaiian language, hewa means wrong and noho means to occupy. This documentary is a contemporary look at Hawaiian people, politics and resistance in the face of their systematic erasure under U.S. laws, economy, militarism, and real estate speculation. It is a raw, unscripted story that makes critical links between seemingly unrelated industries, and is told from the perspective of Hawaiians.

Noho Hewa is the first feature length film produced by Hawaiian journalist and filmmaker Anne Keala Kelly, who directed, shot and edited the film over the course of six years.

In 2008 Noho Hewa won the Hawaii International Film Festivals Award For Best Documentary.
