The terminally ill patriarch of a Hawaiian family is confronted by the mistakes of his past when his semi-estranged family steps in to care for him in his last days. Inspired by stories from his own family and by traditional Hawaiian end-of-life rituals, Christopher Makoto Yogi's latest feature is profoundly tactile in its imagery, and the storytelling moves at a pace that matches the slow and cyclical nature of the remote island on which it's set.
