Maui Boyz - Hawaiian Sup'pa Men

Deutschland 2007 Dokumentarfilm

Maui Boyz – Hawaiian Sup′pa Men

There is an island where men remain boyz and legends become alive.

Maui Boyz tells the story of ten locals from the island of Maui. Despite how different their lives appear in the beginning, the documentary leads to the realization that this place is a unique world in itself – and that every single individual represents a piece in the almighty "Aloha Spirit".

The lifeguard, Archie Kalepa, provides insight into his life, led in the tradition of the "Hawaiian Waterman". The "Paniolo", Greg Friel, shares his experiences in what it means to choose the way of the "Hawaiian Cowboy". While we follow the group Ekolu to their musical appearances, or get to know the workers in Maui′s sugarcane fields, Robby Naish and a handful of other surfers long for the world famous "Jaws" wave at Maui′s North Shore.

All these men have one thing in common: they have remained boys-at-heart.
