Noho Hewa Trailer

November 2nd, 2009 · No Comments

In the Hawaiian language, hewa means wrong and noho means to occupy. This documentary is a contemporary look at Hawaiian people, politics and resistance in the face of their systematic erasure under U.S. laws, economy, militarism, and real estate speculation. It is a raw, unscripted story that makes critical links between seemingly unrelated industries, and is told from the perspective of Hawaiians.

Noho Hewa is the first feature length film produced by Hawaiian journalist and filmmaker Anne Keala Kelly, who directed, shot and edited the film over the course of six years.

In 2008 Noho Hewa won the Hawaii International Film Festivals Award For Best Documentary.
