Hawaiian-language love story airs tonight on PBS
KHET/PBS broadcasts a special Hawaiian-language love story tonight. "Ka'ililauokekoa," a Hawaiian legend about a Kauai chiefess, high chief and his magical flute, will be aired at 8 tonight (repeats at 9 p.m. Saturday).The film was produced by 'Aha Punana Leo, the Hawaiian Immersion program, and was done completely in Hawaiian, even behind the scenes. Kala'iokona Ontai, director of the film, said Hawaiian words were created for filmmaking techniques, such as "panning" and "zooming in," opening another career avenue for Hawaiian speakers.
The film will be followed by a panel discussion with cast and Hawaiian-language experts about the making of the film and how it affects the future of the Hawaiian language.
