Te Korero: Myths and realities from the South Pacific Islands
In the Maori language, Te Korero means stories. This film, which is part musical, part documentary, tells some of the stories of the South Seas, entirely in the words and music of the Pacific peoples themselves. There are myths of the creation of the universe out of darkness, legends about the epic migrations across thousands of miles of oceans, and songs and dances about the realities of today -most especially the new migration of the South Pacific people, forced on them by the pressures of the modern world.
