Myths and Maidens new on Coconet TV

Myths and Maidens, a documentary directed and produced by WIFT member Lisa Taouma, is premiering on the Coconet TV on Nov 20th 2024!

Myths and Maidens is a love letter to fafine Moana, looking at some of our trauma, challenges and inequities across Pasifika, and how in the face of this, the celebration of ourselves is an act of colonial resistance. 

Myths and Maidens was an official selection for Hawaiʻi International Film Festival 2024 and Pasifika Film Festival 2024. Congratulations to the team of this powerful story! Additional WIFT members who contributed to this project are, researcher Litia Tuiburelevu and executive producer Kay Ellmers.
