FLAME OF THE PACIFIC: A LEGEND OF PELE DVD-R - SALE

#V015

“Adapted from the legends of Pele and produced in the Isles of Paradise, this tale is handed down through generations by the Polynesians”. So begins this 1934 tale of love and courtship in the South Seas, set amidst idyllic island scenes of daily life; a courtship that is interrupted by the intervention of Pele, fire goddess of the Kilauea volcano.

As an old woman, Pele is filled with evil desire for the handsome island chief and transforms herself into a beautiful young girl to seduce him. But the chief already has a sweetheart: the lovely Lani, who dances her sensuous “Hula of the Flower” for her beloved to the strains of the steel guitar. Not to be outdone by her rival, Pele dons a grass skirt to compete for the chief’s affection. When the chief chooses Lani, jealous Pele seeks revenge. (26 minutes)

MOANA OF THE SOUTH SEAS VHS DVD MOVIE - SALE

MOANA A ROMANCE OF THE SOUTH SEAS DVD MOVIE - SALE

#V060D

Legendary film director Robert Flaherty’s 1926 utopian vision of the Polynesian customs, daily life, and coming of age ceremonies that center around Moana, a Samoan youth and his family. Beautiful artistic filming on location in the Samoan Islands with local native islanders give the film its authentic idyllic quality.

Moana, his brother Pe’a, and his betrothed Fa’angase gather food for the village feast in tall coconut trees and lush taro fields until they are interrupted by a charging boar, that they subsequently capture. Their spear fishing is viewed through crystalline waters where a huge sea turtle is wrestled into their canoe amidst crashing waves. Back in the Village, mulberry bark has been gathered to pound into tapa cloth, food is being prepared, and fires are started with coconut shells. After a kava ceremony, the elders and the tufunga (tattooer) prepare Moana for the painful tattooing ritual he must endure. He is then anointed with oil to perform the lively Siva dance of betrothal with Fa’angase.

This film follows Black Grace's journey from Cannon's Creek, a small town outside of Wellington, New Zealand to the prestigious Jacob's Pillow Dance Festival, the oldest one of its kind in North America.
