Makana, a young Native Hawaiian man, struggles with his tenuous connection to his Hawaiian culture. When his girlfriend dies during childbirth, he is forced to complete a traditional indigenous birthing ritual with his girlfriend’s overbearing father.

I was born and raised on the Windward side of O’ahu, first in Kailua town and then in Kahalu’u where I currently reside. I’m Native Hawaiian and Tahitian on my mother’s side and while I get some Asian ancestry from her, most of it comes from my dad who is Chinese, Japanese, and Okinawan. I am a filmmaker here in Hawai’i, mostly screenwriting, but I also produce a lot of documentary work as well.
