NOHO HEWA: The Wrongful Occupation of Hawaii
Premiering at the Hawaii International Film Festival
Monday, October 13, 6:15 PM, Dole Cannery, Honolulu
This film connects the military occupation of Hawai’i to the fraudulence of statehood, the Akaka Bill, homelessness, desecration and more.
Featured interviews: Haunani-Kay Trask, Kaleikoa Ka’eo, Noenoe Silva, Keanu Sai, J. Kehaulani Kauanui and others.
It’s important for people to come to this screening because they can vote for the film— and any attention this film gets shines a light on the issues represented in the film— and will help bring those issues to a larger audience outside of Hawaii.
“Noho Hewa” can and should be used to further our collective causes here. It’s not often that a feature length film represents actual Hawaiian matters or has the opportunity to be seen by a worldwide audience. Any chance we have to get our issues known beyond the local, corporate and haole owned media should be siezed.
Your support for this film will be appreciated and I hope to see everyone there.
Mahalo nui,
Keala
