Tira Akina

The wildly funny and touching story of a lonely Hawaiian girl and the fugitive alien who helps to mend her broken family.

When they're hired to recover the lost treasure of Columbus, married scuba divers Sebastian and Dani think they've hit the jackpot. But as they get closer to the fortune, the couple begins to suspect their employers have their own agenda. Hitting upon the real plan, the two come to the chilling realization that they may be expendable and that there's much more than riches at stake.

Set in rural Hawaii, a Native Hawaiian girl must confront her father after he enters her beloved pet in a dog fight. The film explores the cultural and socio-economic strife that burdens many communities in Hawaii, but at its heart, it is a coming-of-age tale of a young woman who makes the difficult realization that to save her family, she must stand on her own.
