Noho Hewa Film Showing

The Hawai‘i International Film Festival’s 2008 Halekūlani Golden Orchid Award for Best Documentary, NOHO HEWA comes to the campus of the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa.

Anne Keala Kelly’s “raw portrayal of issues that shape the political, economic and cultural world of Hawaiians. The film provides a contemporary look at the impact of militarism, tourism and real estate, making critical links between these seemingly unrelated industries via their collective power to force Hawaiians out of their homeland economically, politically and culturally. It frames desecration of Hawaiian burials and sacred sites as an intentional tool deployed by the American system and questions the role settlers play in the dispossession of the Hawaiian people and disruption of their inherent sovereignty.”
