In between growing frustrations toward cleaning up after an endless parade of tourists and reflections on a traumatizing memory, a voice rises from within a soft-spoken Hawaiian janitor down on the sidewalk in Waikiki. This narrative short film is inspired by a collection of poetry published posthumously featuring the work of Kānaka Maoli poet Wayne Kaumualii Westlake (1947-84).
Down on the Sidewalk in Waikiki was directed by Justyn Ah Chong.
Down on the Sidewalk in Waikiki runs for 20min, and was released in 2019.
