Synopsis

*Shortlisted in the Oscars Best Animated Short category*

Long ago, four transgender healers travelled from Tahiti to Hawaii. A monument to their mystical powers still stands on Waikiki Beach, but their true story has been hidden from history – until now.

Prize for Best Animated Film An ancient tale of the spiritual power of the large boulders on Waikiki beach comes to life in an enchanting film. The animation here serves an ancient, almost forgotten tradition, which is reborn in a beautiful, magical film.
