Na Kamalei: The Men of Hula

Beyond the stereotypes of "grass skirt girls," Na Kamalei: The Men of Hula explores a resurgence of men who dance the hula. It follows legendary master hula teacher, Robert Cazimero, and Halau Na Kamalei, the only all-male hula school in Hawai'i, as they journey to compete at the world’s largest hula competition. Celebrating the 30th anniversary of their school and competing with some of the oldest male dancers at the competition, Robert and his men are out to prove that the renaissance of male hula is not over. Na Kamalei tells a story of Hawaiian pride through the exploration of male roles in the hula tradition.
