Armed with just his suitcase and a sax, musician Alex Zhang Hungtai returns home to Hawaii after nearly a decade, taking refuge in a Buddhist B&B with a woman named Akiko. As the two grow familiar, they embark on a journey of musical discovery.
Christopher Makoto Yogi’s debut feature is a wonderful tribute to a place, pushing against Hollywood’s erasure of Hawaii with affection and contemplation. Starring Alex Zhang Hungtai from the band Dirty Beaches, the film is a musical dream that feels both immensely personal and culturally expansive.
