Kia ora Evangeline,
ReplyDeleteThe trailers for 'Whale Rider' really were quite sad, weren't they? The film depicts a story about a young girl who is fighting for the right to be recognised as the chief of her tribe (iwi). I would love to know what you would rate the movie out of 5 (1 = bad movie, 5 = excellent movie). What rating would you give it?
I would also love to read a summary of the movie in your own words. Are you able to replace the above summary with your own version? I'd really love to read your ideas rather than someone else's :)
Cheers,
Rachel
