Good daughter, beautiful.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
What emotional moments though, Dave, are you sure with me
that one of the scenes that we can say is
in one or two was really special to you?
Speaker 4 (01:48):
Which one?
Speaker 5 (01:49):
Oh Man, try to give you a line the cover
the Yeah, well did you just say O, how do
you remember that?
Speaker 6 (01:59):
We were.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
All right?
Speaker 4 (02:01):
Yeah, honestly when when the other ceremony and there came
and and and the then animation of that, it's it's heartbreaking.
It's like, wow, nowhere else could they exist? And then
like when we saw the film and they did the
other we reach our hands because we wanted some as well.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
Yeah, but it's that that the spirituality of the.
Speaker 4 (02:33):
It's a gift of the land and to enrich our
bodies to send you.
Speaker 7 (02:38):
Forward and that acknowledgement.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
Yeah, and beautiful And it's not giving anything away to say,
you know, this is about unification of people across them one.
How did you feel seeing that walker coming across the horizon? Timura?
Speaker 7 (02:55):
Well, that's what That's a big part of this film
to me, is the.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
An open tire, you know, pushed that back right back
in the early times when they were making a movie
about Mowana, but it was Aubitaiah.
Speaker 7 (03:06):
They said, hang on, doesn't he This is about the
way finders, these this is about our ancestors that could
traverse the oceans guided by the stars, the currents, and
these people could read the signs. So it's it's awakened
ourselves to those elements again and those special qualities, our
toupun ahead again. Now when our queer returns, you know,
(03:29):
to me, that's a sign that you know, we feel
our ancestors are always with us, for guardian, for guidance, for
if we can read the signs and tap into those things.
So and in some levels, very spiritual, very touching. When
Moana puts her hand in the ocean, it takes me
back to who taught our Nina on Thompson's and all
(03:49):
our new navigators of this modern era. And it goes
back to that Tohuna Mao from Indonesia that forgotten the
name of the island he's from, but he is one
of the ones that passed on that knowledge.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
So so it encumbasses. Yes, of course, the drama, humor, humor,
even the Rocks performance and he's.

the music of tobacco, the rhythms, and it's just proud
to be Polynesian.

I just want to I just quote Tim weird it
for you last night. He said, you were like Beyonce,
like that song that your song depor and and what
is it in English? I don't know, get lost? Get
lost really because you know there's different ways you can
interpret it, but that was that's an anthem. How did
(04:50):
you come at that song?
Speaker 8 (04:52):
Oh? Random?
Speaker 3 (04:54):
Straight like a whole team, you know that took it
was a whole processor, you know. I think the first
time we did it was last year, so maybe over
the course of a year. I think it was about
three studio sessions. Each of those sessions were about four
five hours long. A couple of tweaks here and there,
but but I had a beautiful vocal coach here in
(05:16):
Cheri who really does keep me believing that we could
we could hit it and stay healthy over that give
us a line or two.

and sea calls and sometimes you're like, nothing can be
the original affairs always get like.
Speaker 2 (06:58):

been in a sequel. That's not so good.

for them to all be there this period.

I looked over and they're all sitting there, and they're
all older, and I saw I saw the little children
that me and bron made. I saw those those images,
and like I cried. I tried to them, and I
