LI'A: The Legacy of a Hawaiian Man is the first film by filmmakers Eddie and Myrna Kamae. It premiered in November 1988 at the Hawaii International Film Festival, and was the Closing Night Film at the 1989 Pacific Rim Film Festival. This one-hour documentary is about the music of Hawaii. It is also the story of a place, the Big Island's legendary Waipi'o Valley, and a man whose music was nurtured by that place. Born in 1881, Sam Li'a Kalainaina was a man of an older time whose 94 years bridged two centuries and two ways of life.
Li'a's music inspired Eddie Kamae to preserve this man's unique legacy on film. Eighteen years in the making, this was the first film directed by Kamae, a widely respected performer, singer and a musical legend in his own right.
Combing interviews, spectacular scenery, and original songs performed by Eddie's band, The Sons of Hawaii, Li'a is a touching tribute to a gentle-spirited and unforgettable man. As was noted in CINEVUE Magazine (New York, 1990), " . . . the film imparts a deep sense of the traditional Hawaiian balance between the people, their music, and the land. It has the important (and rare) touch of a filmmaker who has taken the time to truly understand his subject."
