Fiji – the Land and the Legends presents intriguing stories which reveal the rich cultural heritage of Fiji.
It captures the grand spectacle of Fijian custom and tradition at the installation of a Paramount Chief and features myths from the islands of Kadavu, Taveuni and Vatulele. It speaks of Pio Manoa’s poetic description of vanua, plus the imagination and mystery of ‘octopus of the night’.
We’ve released a new DVD that combines our 1976 film, Ten Times Empty with extra images and sounds of Symi, an idyllic small Aegean island that was facing change in the mid 1970s.
In 1976 the barren, sundrenched Greek island of Symi has two resources: the surrounding sea and the legacy of a richer past. Life centres on the small township set around a deep natural harbour where the cafes are exclusively filled with men.
