“Moana,” a Disney film, chronicles the journey of Moana Waialiki, a spirited young Polynesian girl. Determined to protect her island home and people, Moana embarks on a bold oceanic voyage, joined by the demigod Maui. Their journey is fraught with encounters with mythical creatures, daunting challenges, and the revelation of ancient truths. The film’s original soundtrack, featuring songs by Lin-Manuel Miranda, Opetaia Foa’i, and Mark Mancina, was a chart-topping success.
“Moana” stands as a timeless narrative of bravery, self-discovery, and the significance of embracing one’s culture and ancestry.
