An empowering celebration of identity, acceptance and Hawaiian culture based on the true story of a young girl in Hawaiʻi who dreams of leading the boys-only hula troupe at her school. Ho`onani feels in-between. She doesn`t see herself as wahine (girl) OR kane (boy). She`s happy to be in the middle. But not everyone sees it that way. When Ho`onani finds out that there will be a school performance of a traditional kane hula chant, she wants to be part of it. But can a girl really lead the all-male troupe? Ho`onani has to try . . . Based on a true story, Ho`onani: Hula Warrior is a celebration of Hawaiian culture and an empowering story of a girl who learns to lead and learns to accept who she really is--and in doing so, gains the respect of all those around her. Ho`onani`s story first appeared in the documentary A Place in the Middle by filmmakers Dean Hamer and Joe Wilson.
