Moana

[projekktor id=’26168′]

Disney’s newest animated feature, Moana is a fantasy adventure directed by John Musker and Ron Clements (The Princess and the Frog, Aladdin). The film, with a plot grounded in the stories and traditions of the Polynesian people, stars Auli’i Cravalho, Dwayne Johnson, Rachel House, Temuera Morrison, Jemaine Clement, Nicole Scherzinger, and Alan Tudyk.

From Walt Disney Animation Studios comes “Moana,” a sweeping, CG-animated feature film about an adventurous teenager who sails out on a daring mission to save her people. During her journey, Moana (voice of Auli‘i Cravalho) meets the once-mighty demigod Maui (voice of Dwayne Johnson), who guides her in her quest to become a master wayfinder. Together, they sail across the open ocean on an action-packed voyage, encountering enormous monsters and impossible odds, and along the way, Moana fulfills the ancient quest of her ancestors and discovers the one thing she’s always sought: her own identity.

“I connect with Moana in many ways—growing up on an island, as well as the way I love the ocean,” says Cravalho. “She is braver than I am though—literally sailing so far out of her comfort zone. I hope to push to new horizons like she does.”

Moana is rated PG.
