- 1:55Speaker 5: the Yeah, well did you just say O, how do
- 1:59Speaker 5: you remember that?
- 1:59Speaker 6: We were.
- 2:01Speaker 1: All right?
- 2:01Speaker 4: Yeah, honestly when when the other ceremony and there came
- 2:06Speaker 4: and and and the then animation of that, it's it's heartbreaking.
- 2:11Speaker 4: It's like, wow, nowhere else could they exist? And then
- 2:17Speaker 4: like when we saw the film and they did the
- 2:20Speaker 4: other we reach our hands because we wanted some as well.
- 2:27Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's that that the spirituality of the.
- 2:33Speaker 4: It's a gift of the land and to enrich our
- 2:36Speaker 4: bodies to send you.
- 2:38Speaker 7: Forward and that acknowledgement.
- 2:41Speaker 2: Yeah, and beautiful And it's not giving anything away to say,
- 2:47Speaker 2: you know, this is about unification of people across them one.
- 2:50Speaker 2: How did you feel seeing that walker coming across the horizon? Timura?
- 2:55Speaker 7: Well, that's what That's a big part of this film
- 2:57Speaker 7: to me, is the.
- 2:59Speaker 1: An open tire, you know, pushed that back right back
- 3:02Speaker 1: in the early times when they were making a movie
- 3:04Speaker 1: about Mowana, but it was Aubitaiah.
- 3:06Speaker 7: They said, hang on, doesn't he This is about the
- 3:08Speaker 7: way finders, these this is about our ancestors that could
- 3:12Speaker 7: traverse the oceans guided by the stars, the currents, and
- 3:17Speaker 7: these people could read the signs. So it's it's awakened
- 3:20Speaker 7: ourselves to those elements again and those special qualities, our
- 3:24Speaker 7: toupun ahead again. Now when our queer returns, you know,
- 3:29Speaker 7: to me, that's a sign that you know, we feel
- 3:32Speaker 7: our ancestors are always with us, for guardian, for guidance, for
- 3:37Speaker 7: if we can read the signs and tap into those things.
- 3:39Speaker 7: So and in some levels, very spiritual, very touching. When
- 3:43Speaker 7: Moana puts her hand in the ocean, it takes me
- 3:46Speaker 7: back to who taught our Nina on Thompson's and all
- 3:49Speaker 7: our new navigators of this modern era. And it goes
- 3:53Speaker 7: back to that Tohuna Mao from Indonesia that forgotten the
- 3:58Speaker 7: name of the island he's from, but he is one
- 4:00Speaker 7: of the ones that passed on that knowledge.
- 4:02Speaker 1: So so it encumbasses. Yes, of course, the drama, humor, humor,
- 4:07Speaker 1: even the Rocks performance and he's.
- 4:09Speaker 7: Speaking a little bit of someone.
- 4:10Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 4:11Speaker 1: Yeah, the language we had to talk at language in
- 4:15Speaker 1: there from So yeah, that's very much a highlight. Just
- 4:19Speaker 1: the music of tobacco, the rhythms, and it's just proud
- 4:24Speaker 1: to be Polynesian.
- 4:26Speaker 2: Yeah, and Michael to even so, I think your incritible character, Martani,
- 4:32Speaker 2: I just want to I just quote Tim weird it
- 4:34Speaker 2: for you last night. He said, you were like Beyonce,
- 4:36Speaker 2: like that song that your song depor and and what
- 4:40Speaker 2: is it in English? I don't know, get lost? Get
- 4:42Speaker 2: lost really because you know there's different ways you can
- 4:45Speaker 2: interpret it, but that was that's an anthem. How did
- 4:50Speaker 2: you come at that song?
- 4:52Speaker 8: Oh? Random?
- 4:54Speaker 3: Straight like a whole team, you know that took it
- 4:58Speaker 3: was a whole processor, you know. I think the first
- 5:01Speaker 3: time we did it was last year, so maybe over
- 5:03Speaker 3: the course of a year. I think it was about
- 5:05Speaker 3: three studio sessions. Each of those sessions were about four
- 5:09Speaker 3: five hours long. A couple of tweaks here and there,
- 5:13Speaker 3: but but I had a beautiful vocal coach here in
- 5:16Speaker 3: Cheri who really does keep me believing that we could
- 5:19Speaker 3: we could hit it and stay healthy over that give
- 5:23Speaker 3: us a line or two.
- 5:25Speaker 2: Give loss Carlos and lose.

- 5:55Speaker 2: one of thel Mardy originally as a sixteen year old.
- 5:57Speaker 2: That's really been the foundation for it because it's about
- 6:00Speaker 2: it's about it's about building capacity as well, isn't it this?

- 6:56Speaker 8: the original affairs always get like.
- 6:58Speaker 2: That you've never had experience of that team, you've never
