Stepan and I just saw one of the best movies we've seen in a long time. It was Whale Rider, a story about native people of New Zealand, a stubborn patriarchal hierarchy, generational conflict, and struggles to honor traditions and ancestors in a modern world. The music was phenomenal and the movie was beautifully filmed. Go see this movie and if you tend to be even the slightest bit emotional at movies be sure the take a whole box of kleenex.
