Tanna
“Two tribes. One love.”
Wawa (Marie Wawa) is a young woman of the Yakel tribe on the island of Tanna in Vanuatu, and she is in love with Dain (Mungau Dain), the chief's grandson. A war with the neighboring Imedin tribe pulls her into a peace settlement, one that promises her to a man she has not chosen. Martin Butler and Bentley Dean filmed it on Tanna itself, with the Yakel people playing versions of their own lives.
