Of special interest to y'all could be 2 movies, "Velvet Dream" which is a docu-drama that is revolving around the elusive beauty if a south seas maiden as depicted in a black velvet painting. There is also a film called "Skin Stories" which traces the origins of tattoos. There are many other films involving hula, music, surf, the hawaiian language and history. http://www.hawaiiculturalfoundation.org/events/2003/pacifikafilmfest/index.html Please visit this site, it gives the schedule and contact info, I am sure tickets for most will be availiable at the door. Join us if you can. Mahalo!
