Whale Rider
Whale Rider The Maori have been living in New Zealand for a very long time. ... For example Pai told the story of Paikea and it’s whale and all the people came together in the marae and celebrated that. ... The people of Whangara believe that Pakedia, their ancestor, rode on a whale to New Zealand after he got shipwrecked. ... The people of Whangara try to save them, but Pakkedia’s whale, the leader of them, is nearly dead. Pai helps him to get into the water and thenm she rides the whale like her ancestor did. ... I really enjoyed watching “Whale Rider” because it is a film that goes to heart and shows the nature of the Maori.
