Noho Hewa showing at UH Manoa
The Hawai‘i International Film
Festival’s 2008 Halekūlani Golden Orchid Award for Best Documentary
NOHO HEWA: THE
WRONGFUL OCCUPATION OF
HAWAI‘I
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.”
