HAWAIIAN OCEAN FILM FESTIVAL

Saturday August 23rd
@ Sunset on Hanalei Bay
(7:30 pm - Aku road at Weke)

Featuring films about:

Marine Resources, Ocean Recreation, and our
Cultural Connections to the Sea

"Bad Neighbors"
Shows marine creatures doing all the things
we do to their homes — the ocean — to our home,
from over-fishing to polluting.
The take-home Message is:
Would we want this to happen to our home?
Then why do we do it to theirs?

“Once Upon a Tide”
A live action and animated tale about a time when the
people were under a spell, that made them forget
about the ocean. Told through the unique voice of Academy-Award
winner Linda Hunt, this mystical fairytale
inspires us to recognize the importance of ocean conservation.”

Made by the Center for Health and the
Global Environment, at Harvard Medical School

"El Mar Alma . . . and a land that cradles the sea"
Follows professional free surfer Dave Rastovich on
a ground breaking journey along the coastline of
South America’s Chile.

The challenge: to ride the huge winter swells that pound
Chile’s rugged coast and use his celebrity status within
the surfing world to promote marine mammal conservation
and the preservation of our fragile coastal environments.

“The Wayfinders of Polynesia”
Starring Nainoa Thompson of the Polynesian Voyaging Society,
the travels of the voyaging canoe Hokule’a,
a replica of the ancient vessels that explored the Pacific.
The crew uses the ancient methods of celestial navigation
and the direction, size, speed, and distance between
waves to find the islands in a vast sea.

The film was made by Andrew Gregg and Wade Davis,
an Explorer-In-Residence with National Geographic,
who began filming in 2004 in Hanalei Bay,
and followed the story to Polynesia.
