The “Best Global Documentary Film Creating Change” was presented on July 30, 2014, by the Pacific Talent Film Festival at the Toyota Museum in Torrance, California.
“It is an honor to be able to share Hawai`i A Voice For Sovereignty with the world and the journey of the people of Hawai`i," says Producer-Director Catherine Bauknight.
The Hawaiian’s struggle to protect the land and the people of the land continues as the US Department of Interior is now proposing that Native Hawaiians be recognized as a Native American tribe.
In June, 2014, an overwhelming percentage of native Hawaiians testified against the proposed rule during hearings conducted throughout the islands. After the film’s historic premier at the US Capitol Building in Washington, DC, Hawai`i A Voice For Sovereignty has received seven other distinguished awards during film festivals in Hawai`i, New York City, Berkeley, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and New Zealand. Hawai`i A Voice For Sovereignty continues its voyage around the world including screenings at the United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues in New York City, the Pigorini National Museum of History and Ethnography in Rome, and in smaller venues throughout the US and Canada.

In the article she speaks out strongly against the Akaka bill, which was passed in the US House of Representatives this week, and explains how its real purpose is to confuse, cover-up and legitimize the US takeover of Hawai`i.
We’re pleased to debut a brand new Voices Of Truth featuring Keala as she reveals more about the Akaka bill, what it would do to Hawai`i and what it takes to make an award winning documentary like Noho Hewa actually happen.
So why was the Akaka bill rushed through the US House of Representatives? Why was the language of the bill kept secret until less than 24 hours before it was voted on? And who was managing it all behind the scenes? Find out all this and more this coming Wednesday on Free Hawai`i TV.
