“Ola” is an eye-opening feature length documentary that explores factors that affect health other than genetic predisposition and individual behavior. It highlights the power of communities to heal, how society must re-examine what it means to be healthy, and showcases individuals who bring hope to communities across Hawaiʻi. It is directed by award-winning Matthew Nagato and premiered at the Hawaiʻi International Film Festival in April 2013.
