Synopsis:
Imagine a world where a little boy can grow up to be the woman of his
dreams, and a young girl can rise to become a leader among men.
Welcome to Kumu Hina's Hawai'i.
During a momentous year in her life in modern Honolulu, Hina Wong-Kalu, a
Native Hawaiian māhū, or transgender, teacher uses traditional culture to
inspire a student to claim her place as leader of the school's all-male hula
troupe. But despite her success as a teacher, Hina longs for love and a
committed relationship. Will her marriage to a headstrong Tongan man fulfill
her dreams? As Hina's arduous journey unfolds, her Hawaiian roots and
values give her the strength and wisdom to persevere, offering a new
perspective on the true meaning of aloha.
