a poem

A beautiful crafted poem about initiation into adulthood of a Maori girl. Seductive scene by scene, for the fears about the radical change, for the steps of ritual and the tempt to return to habits of old age, for the comunity of woman and for the fair - courageous answer to the first challenge.

In short, beautiful acting, lovely atmosphere, precious songs, inspired construction of tension.

And, sure, admirable end about a form of reborn as member , with large rights, of comunity.

The simplicity of story can be considered the main virtue . For the wise embroidery of symbols and myths, for the realism and magnificent end of the process. And, sure, for the lovely work of young. Amy Kahumako Rameka.
