Canvas of Oceans explores the world’s largest celebration of Pacific culture. From the team behind The Pacific, Alice Lolohea and Johnson Raela are in Hawai’i for the 13th Festival of Pacific Arts and Culture (FestPAC).
From musical and dance performances to traditional and contemporary arts interspersed with moving conversations, Canvas of Oceans captures the essence of FestPAC. This film tells a story of celebration, preservation and the challenges faced by many Pacific communities grappling with the after-effects colonisation as they strive to protect their cultural identity.
