I was so inspired by the movie `Whale Rider` that I did some individual research on the Maori people. I`m facinated with the tradtions passed along to even the most modern generations of Maoris. I would engourage everyone to see this movie for it`s moral message.

It was an extremely interesting and best movie ever in today`s society. Shows several aspects of courage, faith, love, and care.

An extreming moving movie which accurately portrayed Maori life in the small communities. Just brilliant. I loved it!
