Description

WORLD PREMIERE Aliah and Kehau take on the male-dominated practice of building Hawaiian hale, traditional thatched structures—a personal and political effort as they reclaim cultural traditions nearly lost to colonial erasure.

The first screening will be followed by a Q&A with director/producer Aukai Ligairi.

All in-person screening venues provide sound amplification headphones upon request with venue management. IFC Center can also provide a T-Coil loop for compatible devices.
