Directed, filmed, and edited by Anthony Banua-Simon; produced and written by Michael Vass, Anthony Banua-Simon; original music, Mike Cooper; executive producer, Steve Holmgren; photos provided courtesy of Kaua'i Historical Society.John Allen, Bam Bam, Anthony Banua-Simon"The Hawaiian island of Kauaʻi is seen as a paradise of leisure and pristine natural beauty, but these escapist fantasies obscure the colonial displacement, hyper-exploitation of workers and destructive environmental extraction that have actually shaped life on the island for the last 250 years. Cane Fire critically examines the island's history -- and the various strategies by which Hollywood has represented it--through four generations of director Anthony Banua-Simon's family, who first immigrated to Kauaʻi from the Philippines to work on the sugar plantations. Assembled from a diverse array of sources -- from Banua-Simon's observational footage, to amateur YouTube travelogues, to epic Hollywood dance sequences -- Cane Fire offers a kaleidoscopic portrait of the economic and cultural forces that have cast Indigenous and working-class residents as "extras" in their own story."--DVD ; English 5.1 or 2.0.Best Feature Documentary, Indie Memphis Film Festival, 2020Grand Jury Award for Best Documentary Feature, Los Angeles Asian Pacific Film Festival, 2021Jason D.
