This short film submitted for the Italia Biennale Architectura 2021 offers a small glimpse into the contemporary story of Hawai‘i’s extraordinarily adaptable and resilient ʻĀina (land, landscape), through contrasting natural textures and atmospheres, and with a prospective vision and voice shared by kupuna (elder, grandparent, ancestor), makua (parents, grown folk), and keiki (child, little one) alike. – Simon Bussiere
