Subject: [K-list] Whale Rider

A couple weeks ago I was happy to shed light on a most moving film
called 'Rabbit Proof Fence'.
Well believe it or not I have just finished watching a work of art of
the same caliber
and inspiration.
It is called 'Whale Rider'.
Though not a true tale like 'Rabbit Proof Fence'
it is a fable/myth working on many levels of archetypes
that run so deep it reaches the soul.
Works of art just as these two films are extremely rare in my experience
and to be blessed enough to come into contact with such wonderful feats
of expression
even once in a lifetime, let alone twice in the span of several weeks
is something to be thankful for and share.
If you happen to be touched, inspired or moved by this film
by all means please let a friend know about it
and pass along the vibe.

Description:
There is a legend that Paikea rode on the back of a whale and led his
people to New Zealand.
Since that time tradition has decreed that the first-born male
descendant will become chief of the tribe.
Then Pai is born...and she is a girl. She grows up within a close-knit
village which retains the tribes
traditional spiritual relationship with the sea and their warrior
values. Although loved by all, Pai faces
rejection from her grandfather, Koro, who is brokenhearted that there is
no grandson to carry on the line.
