Being a Samoan myself but born and raised in the West, I was surprised at how great this movie captured the roots and essence of Samoan culture.. unlike Broken Promises another Samoan film. I really connected with this one and found it 100% accurate in details of casual Samoan lifestyle. Whether they still commit to sitting under mats waiting on forgiveness I'm not to sure but the film really made me feel I was living my culture and Samoan people know it's usually "the good" that comes out victorious. This film is great I watched it with my partner he enjoyed it (European) and the kids in my family that aren't really familiar with the Samoan culture didn't take their eyes off it and laughed away at the cultural parts.. that makes this film funny.. I hope there's more to come like this film in Samoa.
