Hawaii\/USA, documentary, 24min, 2011. Dir: Dean Hamer & Joe Wilson. Japan Premiere!<\/u><\/p>\n

Synopsis:<\/h4>\n

Eleven year old Ho’onani dreams of leading the hula troupe at her inner-city Honolulu school. The only trouble is that the group is just for boys. She’s fortunate that her teacher understands first-hand what it’s like to be ‘in the middle’ – the Hawaiian tradition of embracing both male and female spirit. Together they set out to prove that what matters most is what’s\u00a0in your heart and mind (from Hawaii International Film Festival).<\/p>\n
