“a haunting love story with classic undertones, affording a glimpse into a little-known culture.”~The Hollywood Reporter

Aroview: A fact-based "Romeo and Juliet" tale that took place on the island of Tanna in Vanuatu in 1987, this is a splendidly realized and moving tragedy where personal and communal will seem at irreconcilable odds.

The first feature film to be shot in Vanuatu is performed by a cast of non-professionals drawn from the Yakel tribe.
