A moʻolelo (story) that paints the portrait of a Kanaka Maoli (Native Hawaiian) woman, Shereen Balles, as she nurtures her traditions, language, land, and heritage. Woven together through her lei-making and enchanting voice, we intimately explore her lived experiences as a Kanaka Maoli, and what it truly means to live, breathe, and be Aloha ʻĀina – a Lover of the Land.
