Monica in the South Seas
2023 · 1 hr 12 mins
Finnish filmmaker and artist Sami van Ingen is a great-grandson of documentary pioneer Robert Flaherty, and seemingly the sole member of the family with a hands-on interest in continuing the directing legacy. Among the materials he found in the estate of Robert and Frances Flaherty’s daughter Monica were the film reels and video tapes detailing several years of work on realising her lifelong dream project: a sound version of her parents’ 1926 docu-fiction axiom, Moana: A Romance of the Golden Age.
Directors: Sami van Ingen, Mika Taanila
Cast: Monica Flaherty, Robert Flaherty, Frances H. Flaherty, Le'iataualesa Vaiao Ala'ilima, Sarah Hudson
