The Hawaiian Legacy Series, which now includes nine documentary films, released between 1988 and 2007, with two more documentaries to be completed in 2010 and 2012. Since 1986, Hawaiian musician and film director Eddie Kamae and his wife, film producer Myrna Kamae, have devoted their lives to helping ensure authentic Hawaiian cultural continuity through the films. Their goal is to document for posterity the music, language, people and places of old Hawai‘i.


IN PROGRESS:

MY TEACHERS & ME Release date 2010

FEEDING THE SOUL Release date 2012



“Eddie Kamae’s popularity as a musical renaissance man and leader of the seminal band Sons of Hawai‘i, has been eclipsed by his appetite for filmmaking and his ability to capture voices of Hawai‘i’s musical and cultural legacies.”
