Guardians of Ua Huka

Overview

A short film passion project about the remote island of Ua Huka which is part of the Marquesas islands in French Polynesia. Home to two critically endangered birds, the ultramarine lorikeet and iphis monarch, as well as its wealth of cultural heritage, this island relies on guardians to protect and maintain it. Tuhuna is a guardian, working with the community to preserve all aspects of island life and conserve it for the next generation.
