Whale Rider
This fascinating movie about a young Maori girl who was blemished because she was born a girl contains a compelling, intriguing cultural examination about the old versus the young, women versus men, tradition versus change. A riveting, well-reviewed almost fable-like tale of coming of age contains a haunting narrative by the young girl, music, sound, and a connection to ancient myths and legends. This is a must movie for anyone who is interested in different cultures, about the conflict between generational families, about our connection to our past history, and about being a young girl who must face her own destiny with courage and assertiveness. Nine out of ten stars.
