"The island is asking us to become more aware." Music Box Films has debuted an official trailer for an indie documentary titled Eating Up Easter, which first premiered at the Hawaii Film Festival a few years ago. The doc film is made by a native filmmaker and is all about "the most isolated community in the Pacific" - an island known as Easter Island, the place where the giant stone carvings of people are found. Located off the coast of Chile (but really right in the middle of the Southern Pacific Ocean), the official local name of the island is "Rapa Nui". The film exams how the island is changing in modern times, and shares stories about lessons learned from their past to solve environmental and social challenges brought on by booming tourism and rapid development. Looks like a fascinating "inside" look at how fast the world changes before our eyes. ›››
