Noho Hewa is a brilliant, incisive, and complex expose of colonialism (American and other) and its devastating effects on Kanaka Maoli, the indigenous people of Hawaii, and their land.

Albert Wendt, author, poet, scholar and painter

Deftly combining a powerful critique of militarism, environmental degradation, tourism and cultural annihilation, Noho Hewa should be required viewing at every school, university, and military academy.

Gayatri Gopinath, professor at New York University

“Noho Hewa” in Aotearoa!

“Noho Hewa” will tour in New Zealand for two weeks as part of the Aotearoa Film Festival with screenings in Auckland, Rotorua and Porirua August 10 – 19!

UPDATE:

Mahalo nui loa to Merata Mita, Russell Harrison, Kate Cherrington, Kelly Martin and every single person at Te Wananga who made showing “Noho Hewa” in their country such a rewarding experience!  Aotearoa is gorgeous and so are our Maori cousins who, by the way, Iʻm pretty sure were born singing in 3-part harmony!

May update

The San Francisco Film Society is now the Non-Profit Fiscal Sponsor for “Noho Hewa.”  Mahalo to Michele Turnure-Salleo for her help in setting this up and to Kimberly Hancock for her encouragement.

On May 9th, “Noho Hewa” was screened at Kamehameha Schools Kapalama campus for students in the Scholar’s Program and their parents.  It was an honor to be able to show the film that day and talk-story with these families.  I believe that’s the best way to see the film, with ohana, so that there can be a lively kukakuka afterwards.  Mahalo nui to Jasmine Stein for arranging the screening and to everyone in the Scholar’s Program for doing such important work on behalf of Hawaiians.

Mahalo nui to Clyde Namuo at the Office of Hawaiian Affairs for some much needed support and to Bernadette and Chanetelle for taking care of the administrative process.

Aloha and mahalo to Kev and Ev at the Forward Foundation for facilitating the OHA grant.

Also, mahalo nui to Kimberly Hancock and her ohana for the kind support from Silicon Valley Community Foundation.  That fabulous grant was facilitated by the San Francisco Film Society.  Mahalo to Michele at SFFS.

‘Noho Newa’ viewing: Documentary follows Hawaiians’ plight

“Ethnic cleansing isn’t just something that they do physically to people, it’s something that happens in the mind.”

This was said by Haunani-Kay Trask in an onscreen interview in the documentary “Noho Hewa.” Haunani goes on to say that ethnic cleansing establishes within a people’s mind-set that “You have no place to live. You do not have a home, so you do not exist.” This manao (thought) is what Anne Keala Kelly is trying to capture in her first feature length documentary, “Noho Hewa.”

Molokai Dispatch 1/26/2009

Noho Hewa: Wrongful Occupation

As Hawaii prepares to celebrate its 50th year of statehood, a film that portrays militarism, sovereignty, and the loss of native Hawaiian culture comes at a particularly poignant moment for Hawaiians. Winner of the Hawaii International Film Festival’s 2008 Halekulani Golden Orchid Award for Best Documentary, Keala Kelly’s film “Noho Hewa, The Wrongful Occupation of Hawaii,” has an important message.

“If you really love this place, you need to watch this film,” says Molokai resident Hanohano Naehu of the 73 minute film.
