Mid-16th century Tahiti sets the stage for this mythic story of a young girl who yearns to dance as part of the privileged Arioi Tribe. The magical movements of the dancers mimic the rhythms of the earth, nature and Woman. But the young girl finds herself part of those very same rhythms, an extraordinary sacrifice is expected.
Growing up Poeti dreamt of becoming a dancer within the sacred Arioi tribe. Now she must decide if she will make the ultimate sacrifice to remain amongst them.
