“Cane Fire examines the past and present of the Hawaiian island of Kauaʻi, interweaving four generations of family history, numerous Hollywood productions, and troves of found footage to create a kaleidoscopic portrait of the economic and cultural forces that have cast Indigenous and working-class residents as “extras” in their own story.”
Mahalo to the 300 people who came out to see Cane Fire with us at these two community screenings. Mahalo to the owner of Kukui grove cinemas for the incredible donation of allowing us to use this space. Big Mahalo to the film creator @anthonybanuasimon for sharing his art with Kaua‘i and the world. Mahalo to our partner orgs and Council member Mason Chock for moderating Q&A. And last but not least, mahalo to those who shared their mana‘o for this film and the ‘ohana whose vulnerability allowed all of our kaiāulu to open their eyes and be inspired toward change.
