Desc: Hokule'a: Passing the Torch: Directed by Phil Arnone. With Lopaka Kapanui. The Polynesian Voyaging Society's canoe Hokule'a journeys thousands of miles across open ocean to deliver the ultimate gift to their teacher... Satawalese master navigator Mau Piailug. Their gift is a new voyaging canoe, the Alingano Maisu, built specifically as a "floating classroom" to pass on an ancient body of navigational knowledge to the next generation of Micronesians. Hawaii's legendary navigators: Nainoa Thompson, Bruce Blankenfeld, Chad Baybayan, Shorty Bertlemann and Chadd Paishon are honored in an ancient ceremony known as "Pwo", then sail on a goodwill voyage to Japan to spread the message of peace. Filled with stunning, never-before-seen footage by Paliku documentary film maker Na'alehu Anthony, "Hokule'a: Passing the Torch" is a dramatic, informative and loving account of this amazing historic voyage.
