    MOANA: THE RISING OF THE SEA With leading Pacific artists from the University of the South Pacific, an EU-funded Europe-Pacific climate change Bergen Pacific Studies Group Department of Social Anthropology project produced a world class drama performance. Moana: The Rising of the Sea toured Europe in 2015. University of Bergen Professor Edvard Hviding, Executive Producer of Moana: [email protected] The Global Challenge: Climate Change and the Ocean Scientific scenarios of global climate change and sea level rise tell us that although the islanders of the tropical Pacific contribute the least to global warming, they are set to suffer the most from its effects. For anyone who lives on an island, surrounded by the deep, beautiful yet dangerous sea, it is a cruel thought that one day the island will be swallowed by the ocean, that ancient nurturing realm called Moana Nui in Oceania. How does it feel when the ocean forces you to abandon all that you hold dear? With Moana: the Rising of the Sea, islanders themselves set the scene for thought-provoking questions, answered in part by them through the accumulated wisdom of generations, while also calling Islanders are drowning as the sea invades the shore, and their families try to rescue them on the world to act on climate change. A performance of beauty, fear, hope and challenge, Moana: The Rising of the Sea addresses these questions in ways not seen on stage before.

Subtitle: A CDA of Disney’s representation of the Polynesian culture inside Moana Language: English Pages: 54 Disney is known for their family animation movies with a non-western or indigenous cultural background. Nevertheless, Disney is basically very influential for the perception of cultures by a global audience. Many studies have proven that Disney’s depiction of a certain represented culture has not always been that clean. Of course two side notes are that Disney does make movies from an American dominant perspective and second, there is no such thing as a ‘real’ or ‘correct’ culture. Now, with the movie Moana freshly released in 2016, Disney took a step in the indigenous Polynesian culture. This research uses a thorough Critical Discourse Analysis to analyse how Disney portrays Polynesia and the Polynesian culture inside four selected samples of the movie Moana. This analysis is combined with the theories and concepts of Americanisation, Disneyfication and cultural appropriation to find out mixtures of the portrayed Polynesian culture with American and Disney values.

It tells the story of Moana, a teenage girl and the daughter of the chief of a Polynesian village called Motunui. She is supposed to inherit the position of her father in the near future and, in order to be ready for that role, she needs to take part into the activities of her community. Yet, Moana is not interested in these activities. She wants to sail away, which she is not allowed to do because of a law enforced by her father that prohibits any inhabitant of Motunui from sailing past the reef. When the natural landscape of the village starts to deteriorate due to external forces (crops become infertile and fish disappear from the area), Moana feels that she needs to go on a trip beyond the reef to restore the natural order. The film had an overall positive critical reception. Most reviewers agree on the fact that Moana breaks from the Disney princess tradition and its

  • Movie Review: 'Moana'
    Movie Review: ‘Moana’ By Joseph McAleer Catholic News Service NEW YORK – The same tropical setting that provided the backdrop for the 1949 musical “South Pacific” now lends its exotic flavor to the animated feature “Moana” (Disney). As for the feminism-friendly story of the movie’s eponymous heroine, well, as Rodgers and Hammerstein’s lovelorn Seabees so famously declared, “There is nothing like a dame.” The spunky heroine of Disney’s 56th animated film is a 16-year-old Polynesian princess (voice of Auli’i Cravalho) who seeks not a boyfriend but a grand adventure on the high seas, all to save her world from destruction. There’s no mistaking the entertainment value of “Moana,” gloriously rendered in 3- D, with a delightful array of characters and toe-tapping songs co-written by Lin- Manuel Miranda of Broadway’s “Hamilton.” The film also offers good lessons about family, friendship and the need to be responsible. But Christian parents may be concerned to find that Jared Bush’s screenplay is steeped in indigenous mythology. “Moana” presents a view of creation at odds with the biblical account, and could confuse impressionable minds. Well-catechized teens, however, will likely slough these elements off as mere fantasy. As “Moana” tells it, in the beginning was not God but a comely goddess named Te Fiti, who commanded the oceans and brought life to the world. Te Fiti was joined by a demigod (half -god, half-human) named Maui (voice of Dwayne Johnson). Maui had a nifty talent of pulling islands up from the sea with his trusty fishhook.

Disney's Gender Messaging Abstract Gender in Disney is defined differently through various forms of characterization. The tudys focuses around the messages Disney portrays about gender. Through gender messaging, Disney has left three common recurring themes (Notions of Romance, The Real Housewives of Disney, Is what’s on the outside what’s on the inside?). Disney also has undergone transitions within these themes throughout different time periods (labeled as Classical, Transitional, Contemporary). The changes that have occurred throughout these time periods have been recorded and are valuable in looking at the gender-related cultural scripts of the past. For Disney has changed its interpretation of gender only as much as society let it. Cover Page Footnote Brian Zirkle, Sociology, was the faculty mentor for this Honors contract.

  • Disney Princess Formula Undergoing Much-Needed Transformation by Megan Lunny, Central Bucks East High School
    Disney Princess Formula Undergoing Much-needed Transformation By Megan Lunny, Central Bucks East High School I, like most people my age, was raised on a diet of baby formula and Disney movies, and, as a learned veteran of tiaras and glass slippers, I would like to consider myself something of an expert as far as princesses are concerned. Growing up, a veritable portion of my wardrobe consisted of tiny princess ball gowns, and it is entirely possible that I have cemented the lyrics of "Beauty and the Beast" into my memory — even now, I could quote verbatim any number of show tunes sung by lamps and clocks. But time turned, and I grew out of princess ball gowns and into a new frame of mind. Singing along like a puppet in a tiara had never proved particularly hard, and I began to wonder if I really knew the lyrics I sang, if I understood at all the movies that had sculpted me. Belle wants an adventure, she treks through the woods, she meets a guy, she loves the guy; it’s a story as old as time, cue the credits. Ariel wants to be a human, she loses her voice, she meets a guy, she loves the guy, blank screen. Cinderella is a little less ambitious than Belle or Ariel — she mostly just dreams of being free from the auspices of a domineering stepmother and two preening stepsisters. She puts on the shoes, she meets a guy, she loves the guy, she loses a shoe, she finds the shoe, she meets the guy again, happily ever after ..
