Film Festival+2014 WAIROA MĀORI FILM FESTIVAL +2014 KAHUNGUNU MARAE, NUHAKA, WAIROA, AOTEAROA QUEEN’S BIRTHDAY /MATARIKI THURSDAY 29 MAY – MONDAY 2 JUNE 2014 ANCIENT SPIRITS BECKON / THEME INDIGENOUS FREQUENCIES / WWW.KIAORA.TV WWW.KIAORA.TV Above: RangImoekaus Left: Rob Makaraka in Inc’d Below: Home (Australia) Pumanawa The GIft THE SIGNAL & THE NOISE: MESSAGE FROM THE FESTIVAL DIRECTOR It is a great privilege to welcome you to Wairoa. Welcome to our hau kainga, to Nuhaka anD Morere, to be among the people DescenDeD of Kahungunu anD Rakaipaaka to rest anD finD sanctuary in film. Photo: MoniqueDelatour We gather in the sacreD space of the Māori Marae with clarity in soul anD purpose, with Dignity we adhere to tikanga anD cultural practice that is ancient. Aniwaniwa,Waikaremoana, Wairoa Ancient spirits have beckoneD us here to Wairoa anD from this we converse, create, anD collectively explore future worlDs yet to be known anD ancient stories yet to be tolD - On Screen. We at the Wairoa Māori Film Festival recognise Māori, Pasifika anD international inDigenous film makers as global leaders in the expansion of 4th Cinema Paradigms as first espouseD by our great leaders, Rangatira of Aotearoa anD worlD cinema. Aue! We look back with Dewy eyes as we commence the journey forwarD. As Festival Director, I am privilegeD to travel the worlD on an inDigenous film kaupapa. In Canada last year I attenDeD imagineNATIVE Toronto. I was fascinateD how the native peoples of Toronto have a cultural presence in a vast metropolis that is the film festival capital of the worlD. However, in such a crowDeD meDia market, a “Native Voice” is just one fractal among many in a vast manDala of multiculturalism anD urban tribalism. In Canada, the natives of Toronto struggle to preserve their Reo, which in some cases is only Down to a hanDful of speakers. What a comparison is Aotearoa: here at home, Māori are uniteD with one Reo anD a subset spectrum of living Dialects; on the telly you are now more likely than not to see a brown face when you switch on (Master Chef!); anD in little olD NZ our Māori films are recogniseD as not only among the best critically, but also as the leaders in our national box office roll call. The theme of the Wairoa Māori Film Festival this year is InDigenous Frequencies. Along this theme, there is a set of inDigenous meDia art works, anD a Native Signal Symposium throughout the festival that will occur both after every screening anD online at our new weblog, www.kiaora.tv. There is something magical about Wairoa anD Nuhaka. Away from the hustle anD bustle of cities anD airports anD flight paths anD motorways you can suDDenly hear anD see things you woulDn’t otherwise. The pulse anD heartbeat of Papatuanuku. The vastness anD infinity of the stars anD sky of Ranginui. The glow worms in Morere forest, the native birDs of the Nuhaka village, the roaring sea of Ureti beach. Our hope for this year’s festival is to cut through the Noise to finD a Native Signal. In an increasingly mechaniseD anD alienating worlD, we as ChilDren of Papatuanuku anD Ranginui gather each year in Wairoa to attune to inDigenous frequencies, to Discover a Native Signal amongst the noise of global film paradigms. We are seekers of an attunement to Indigenous Frequencies. A mechaniseD anD technological worlD can be alienating, but the tools of Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Tumblr etal enable us as native peoples to instantly connect anD responD, like birDs in one vast forest. For five magical Days, these pulses anD beats, these inDigenous frequencies anD native signals will emanate from Kahungunu Marae, Nuhaka, Wairoa, Aotearoa. Join us at the Wairoa Māori Film Festival 2014! Nau Mai! Nau Mai! Haere Mai ki te Taurima Whakaata Māori I Te Wairoa 2014!

The story behind the waIata. This film celebrates the waiata Kotiro Māori E, which is oft times recognized as an anthem for descendants of Rongomaiwahine and Kahungunu. It also acknowledges the origins of the rangi (tune) of Kotiro Māori e. The mele (song from Hawai’i) Kaulana Nā Pua was written by Eleanor Kekoaohiwaikalani Wright PrenDergast in 1893. She wrote it for members of the Royal Hawaiian Band who protested the overthrow of Queen Lili’uokalani and the Kingdom of Hawai’i. Kaulana Nā Pua is a Hawaiian patriotic song. The use of the tune from Kaulana Nā Pua for the waiata Kotiro Māori e has been a point of contention for some Kānaka ‘ōiwi (Native Hawaiians) Due to the context of which Kaulana Nā Pua song was written. It was a time when American business men and their allies attempted to annihilate the people from Hawai’i. Uncle Tommie Taurima, as he is fonDly known sheds light on his intention for using the tune of Kaulana Nā Pua when writing the waiata Kotiro Māori e. This film is about increasing understanding between Kānaka ōiwi and Tangata Whenua. It is also about acknowledging the significance of indigenous female political leaders, Queen Lili’uokalani and Rongomaiwahine.

    Journal of Religion & Film Volume 16 Article 9 Issue 2 October 2012 10-1-2012 Whale Rider: The Re-enactment of Myth and the Empowerment of Women Kevin V. Dodd Watkins College of Art, Design, and Film, [email protected] Recommended Citation Dodd, Kevin V. (2012) "Whale Rider: The Re-enactment of Myth and the Empowerment of Women," Journal of Religion & Film: Vol. 16 : Iss. 2 , Article 9. Available at: https://digitalcommons.unomaha.edu/jrf/vol16/iss2/9 This Article is brought to you for free and open access by DigitalCommons@UNO. It has been accepted for inclusion in Journal of Religion & Film by an authorized editor of DigitalCommons@UNO. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Whale Rider: The Re-enactment of Myth and the Empowerment of Women Abstract Whale Rider represents a particular type of mythic film that includes within it references to an ancient sacred story and is itself a contemporary recapitulation of it. The movie also belongs to a further subcategory of mythic cinema, using the double citation of the myth—in its original form and its re-enactment—to critique the subordinate position of women to men in the narrated world. To do this, the myth is extended beyond its traditional scope and context. After looking at how the movie embeds the story and recapitulates it, this paper examines the film’s reception. To consider the variety of positions taken by critics, it then analyses the traditional myth as well as how the book first worked with it. The onclusionc is, in distinction to the book, that the film drives a wedge between the myth’s original sacred function to provide meaning in the world for the Maori people and its extended intention to empower women, favoring the latter at the former’s expense.
