- It’s ball season and hormones are on the rise at St. Valentines High. The new arrival of fakaleiti Lisa causes a stir, particularly with First XV Captain Mose. A web of entanglements are woven, and Lisa soon realises that behind every Prince Charming is a hater in the midst.
There is no tree big enough for the shade, the sass and the relevance of this coming of age story that looks beyond the hyena laughs, to the pain of the adolescent experience when you don’t run with the pack. Most importantly this based-on-a-true story of the traumas and triumphs of adolescence, speaks to the hearts of our rainbow aigas across the Moana.
The melting pot becomes a pressure cooker when rugby players, Island mums, gender fluidity and teenage microaggressions all converge in this South Auckland high school drama like no other.
This rangatahi story of gender and sexual identity affirmation has already won the hearts of hundreds of Pasifika school students in stage form, and is now brought to life on screen for audiences around the world!
This ground breaking dramedy puts Pasifika story sovereignty at the forefront, created and made by an all Pasifika team:
Written by Amanaki Prescott-Faletau and Leki Bourke-Jackson
Directed by Damon Fepulea'i and Ramon TeWake
Produced by Hope Papali'i and Elizabeth Koroivulaono
EPs Lisa Taouma, Nicola Anne Smith and Amanaki Prescott-Faletau

Im kind of disappointed this didn't make the BIG screens in cinemas and wasn't longer. ITS SO GOOD 😭
No Fr
oh wait the first time i watched this was in a cinema,, then my friend said it was on youtube, and here i am watching it again with my cousins,..
I KNOW RIGHT
Tonga 🇹🇴 💄
the actress who played Lisa’s mum needs an Oscar🥺 sent chills down my spine
Nahhhh cause frrrr 😭
Cried like a baby when we player her role. Real island mom right there.
She reminded me of my grandma it made me sad
Love tha part she’s dancing down the hallway 🥰❤️ so beautiful
Her name's Celia Pusiaki
Damn this destroyed me. I consider myself a strong straight tongan man with a very religious upbringing and if this movie taught me anything it was to never judge others, to put myself in others shoes, to think if that was my son or daughter how would i treat them? would i love them the same? to be more understanding. This movie made me so emotional thinking about the true consciousness of christ which is to be kind to be loving towards others even when we don't agree or live the same lifestyle as someone still be full of love because God will judge us all accordingly and at least i can say to him i tried my very best lord to be kind and loving to everyone. Thank you for this movie and the lessons it taught me.
😭
Always spread the truth even tho it hurts
lisa got you rethinking life
💯💯
Straight religious woman and same brother❤️
Can we get a Inky Pinky 2. Netflix should pick this up and make it into a series
True❤❤
Yes!! Love that idea.
ong
Yes I would definitely binge the series
tbh Netflix would ruin this gem! Or worse make it a full length series and leave us on a cliffhanger cause they cancelled it!
Watched this film with my mum who is a staunch catholic woman who found herself in tears as it's a story that relates to a lot of staunch christian pasifika parents going thru similar stories like lisa and her mum. The heartbreak, the hurt & the humour makes this such a great film to watch. My mum loved it and has been the biggest supporter to her lesbian daughter since the day she came out ❤ Thank u for releasing this film 🥺 Means so much x

Everyone be saying “Get a friend like Britney” instead of “We should be more like Britney” This was the film our diaspora needed! It’s about damn time! Finally we’re breaking barriers and generational curses! And we’re all in for it! 🌺💝💫
As a Polynesian Fafafine this hit home for me in many ways, Its so rare for Poly parents & ppl to be accepting of fafafines/fakaleitis/mahus cuz of the oldschool mindset & bc of whats been instilled to believe is right & wrong. What many ppl dont kno is that The Fafafine was always considered as a 3rd gender in Samoa & it was normal till Christianity came and brainwashed & took away many things from our traditions & cultures. This film showcased what many of us Fafafines experienced just by being ourselves n the hardships that we endure by living our truths instead of living a lie. Many of us since birth even growing up always just KNEW. Nowadays its being protrayed that its an "agenda" being pushed etc etc but folks dont realise this is REAL LIFE for many of us. Everyday we step out we risk our lives just by Being Who We Are. We grow up to always defend our selves & to fight (especially if you were brought up in rough ghetto areas) but regardless of the hardships we stand tall cuz we ALSO are warriors just like our ancestors. I wish more ppl understood us & how we just want to Live our truths. I wish Polynesian parents were more accepting of their gay children & would Love us for who we are & stop worrying about what other people would think of us, For its us who go thru the motions not them. I Love The Allys we have from the supportive brothers & sisters. This is a great film. Alofas from Amelika
Thats crazy that poly parents don't accept the fafafenes considering there's so many, is it just the old school parents cause these generation of parents I feel would be more accepting
Christianity didn’t brainwash us 😂 it set us on the right course with God. “Your truth” isn’t objective. Fafafines are to be loved like every other person, I agree but God taught us to love the sinner, not the sin
You can speak for yourself. Can’t speak for all of us. By the way. Christianity didn’t brainwash my culture. They delivered the Good News. In the Tongan culture. Fkleiti doesn’t mean gay. Fkleiti means, a guy acting feminine. Fksotoma means gay. Be gay by yourself. You don’t have to ask the world for acceptance.

Can we give the teacher a round of applause for being a supportive teacher
RIGHT!!! 👏👏👏👏❣
i need that teacher frfr
I met that guy in the city once , bro has heaps of accents 😂 an he's gay irl
Part of the script*
True❤❤
As soon as I heard Aaradhna I knew we were in for a treat 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 looks were served throughout the movie 😍😍😍😍
Singing at the top of my lungs😌
Frrrrrrr🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽
I started having a dawnraid kaaroke night after watching thiswith my friends💀✨
Lisa's bestfriend deserves an Oscar, she's a typical loyal islander bestie
I want a bestie like her fr
ikr brittany was so nice and she introduced herself to lisa's mum really well
She also got the Bakery 🎂
lmaoo@@jcf8880
Need more islander movies for the soundtracks alone 🔥
Frrrr 💯💯
YESSSSS
when it started off with they don’t know i knew it was finna have some nice tracks 🤭
Rrrriiiiigggghhhttttt!!!
literally !!
As masculine lesbian in a catholic Family this really speaks to me. Being the only lesbian out of my entire family still haven’t come out because I’m scared of the pain I’d cause. Only my parents and siblings know. My father still isn’t happy about it. It takes courage to step out like that I can’t wait till I have it.
Ify, Im mormon N when I told my dad he said he would baptize me again N always lectures me about how bein gay wont make yu happy. Buh Im slowly getting more comfortable with it N I pray yu build yur courage !
im glad you came out, hope they become open minded as time goes by. Thats how it was for me
so real, I'm lesbian but still I love God. Haven't come out to anyone except my sister, as she feels the same.
Mother's love never ends! Great movie, you can laugh as you related Mose and his friends and cry as well because that slap was too much toko😂❤🇹🇴
we love the support from the teacher. even though he doesn't fully understand the struggle he is willing to stand up for Lisa.
Closer to the window, leave the door open 😂😂😂 that’s it mama that’s how we do it 😅
He lucky he made it into her room shoot my dad would’ve had us outside sitting opposite sides w him in the middle
Funny😂
Closer to da window, Ia jump out too 😂😂
Lisa’s mum deserves an award 👏 This was a good watch if only it was a better ending but then again not everything ends in sunshine and rainbows 😅
The ending is sunshine and rainbows in fact more, the fact that she knows her worth and has got her mum in her corner now is what trumps being together with the school jock. Lisas right there will be plenty more Moses in this world and even if he had a change of heart his intention wasn't genuine. There are no winners or losers here, all lessons. The winners are the older polys who watched this and are opening their minds and gaining better understanding which makes them reflect. This is not a hate post to you just my thoughts. Love will always win
This needs to be a series I need to see this ever week ❤
THISSSSSSSSS PART 2 COMING UP SOON OR ??
YESSSS OMG! I didn’t even think of this but yes! Part 2!!
Please be a part2
caught my mom watching this, she is very religious. the tears on her face broke me! the funny thing is, shes mexican. later we learned alot about Tongan history, aswell as some LGBTQ+ articles. very interesting, we love you guys!
Truly fell in love at the moment, when Mom talks to her and says those words that every child wants to hear...😢😢😢
I loved this movie!
Being Tongan and having a gay brother who was flamboyant at a young age and seeing similar ways how Lisa was treated reminded me of what I've seen my brother went through. 😭❤️
I loved this movie. It had me at the edge of my seat hoping Lisa didn't get hurt, I thought it would end a happily ever after but her knowing her own worth is definitely a much better & satisfying ending. 🥰
Spoilers much 😂
Nah, her ending up with Mose would be better but of course her ass went straight to assuming
Watching this film was really eye opening I’m religious and a polynesian girl but so much over the years has taught me never to judge others it’s great being able to learn about those who have completely different lives from you,but it’s also sad how people get treated for not being an average joe,i wish for a world where we can all learn from each other and hopefully be able to learn together ❤️
This is far by one off the best real, raw talented Movie's i have seen. This movie needs to be acknowledged not only in Aotearoa but world wide to show our rangatahi and our Indigenous cultures that it is ok to be who you identify as. This generation has a better chance to break through the intergenerational trauma that has effected our parents and there parents etc. I love our generation today to be free to be able to be them selves. We must never forgot those who paved the way for our rights before us and who still continue to fight for Takatapui especially in Aotearoa. Our family may take time to accept us or may not accept dont let that stop you from being you. Education is the key. Our whanau only know what they know its up to us to educate. Kia kaha our Rangatahi don't ever give up!! Well done to the writers director's actors everyone involved. I hope this makes it big!!
the realism of it all is what i love most about this show - acceptance, religious parents, bullying in school, boys & girls.. they all portrayed it perfectly.
Loved Britney’s character 👌 she’s a real one
This movie was so good!! I loved Lisa’s character she wasn’t settling and I love that for her!! This would make a great tv show!
love how that tongan girl didnt vomit but helped them out because she was the only one masagi to the horse 😂
thats exactly what i said😂
Lol... I caught that one too😂
This should be a good start to show off our other communities who are still in hiding to bring their stories out too. Thank you to the directors for such an awesome short film that might inspire someone to talk more about these situations. ❤🔥💯🙌🏽
I thoroughly enjoyed this Lisa😊. The mothers character reminds me of my mother-in-law who is Tongan. I cried understanding the depth of her love. I resonate with Lisa character because I know and have felt rejection. It is a deep pain. I am a woman but despite this difference, I wouldn’t know how deep it feels for a transgender. 5 ⭐️ for me. Out of 5 of course😊
Great film !! It would be great to see a continuum of Lisa's story directed by Amanaki and Leki and hopefully produce more films that depict the reality and experiences for the LGBT+ of Polynesian decent. 100000/10 !!
I am obssessssed!! I laughed plenty, got frustrated, related to content, cried and was so satisfied with how it ended, love will always win in the end. It felt too short!!!!! more movies like this please. So proud of our people 🇹🇴
We need more of lisa slaying it!! Way to represent the struggles and challenges that LGBTQ 🏳️🌈 🏳️⚧️ Pacific Islanders have to face and overcome. #Loveislove🌈
Oh Jardup kunn
Showed this to my mom and cousin, we absolutely loved it. As someone who is poly and lived my adolescence as a girl; this made me so happy to see. I am not trans anymore but that girl is still inside of me.
Everything Lisa went through and talks about is exactly how I felt. Times will change and movies like this definitely help girls like us feel seen and less alone + it will show others what life is like.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Much Love from America 🇺🇸 🇼🇸
I hope to see more!
I don’t understand? How can you suddenly not be trans anymore?
"Anaru Anaru, he's a waru, rumour is, he only dates paru's" should have been the line hahahahaha
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I love this one
oii str8uppp crackuppp HAHHA🤣🤣🤣🤣
Congrats should be very proud of the film 🎉Thanks for shedding light on such important matters. Hopefully this continues to break barriers and open more conversations amongst Poly communities. Amazing work!
❣️ Totally love this.... Thankyou Amanaki and crew for telling our story.... I know every one of our whakawahine, fakaleiti, faafafine, sistahood will relate to Lisa in one way or another.... Being Maori, trans from Auckland.... Yuppp, it was pretty confronting, felt like my life was being played out right before me, but the main thing I hope this movie dispells, is the hideous notion that it's a phase or that we choose to be this way.... I mean REALLY??? Who TF REALLY chooses a life where you are the fkn absolute opposite to any societal norms, U are neither this box or that, and pretty much make yourself the target 🎯 on a dartboard each and every day 🤔🙄🤷⁉️
I believe we were all put here for a reason.... Regardless of what man and his religion believes.... What they forget sometimes is that they are not God. Live your lives and treat others as you'd want yourselves or your loved ones to be treated. Simple really ❣️❣️
#AllLivesMatter
what a film 😭🥺 I had to pause the movie every 10 mins and laugh cos THE AMOUNT OF STUFF I COULD RELATE TO BAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA
love the ending when she walked out with the only one who truly loves her 🥹🫶🏽
This production team, The camera angles , Everyone’s acting , The music . THIS WAS EFFN amazing ! ❤ LOVED IT 😍😍😍😍
Can u pls tell me the name of the Tongan song

This made me laugh, cry and miss my mum. Thank you for this masterpiece 😍🇹🇴🇹🇴🇹🇴
Saw a quick scene on TikTok and I had to see the entire movie ! The main character is juste so funny, her lines and facial expressions are hilarious ! The actress is just gorgeous and so good in her role. I loved it ! Thank you so much 🥰🥰🥰
The best part was when she walked out with her mom at the end with the victory wink at the end. Love from your mom is what matters more than any other. Nice movie Tongans. Need a part 2. Love from Samoa ❤
I’m 20 minutes in and I don’t want it to end . It’s such a gorgeous piece of art!
Thank you to whoever made this movie- we need this type of dialogue, to help the older heads see and understand! #Grateful
Congratulations on creating a piece of history TheCoconutTV that has been much needed, the representation is outstanding bravo 🎉
Send my love to the actors! The whole show was amazing! T’zz up 🇹🇴
Absolutely love this movie! All about self love 💕 ppl can be so cruel but I love how Lisa continued to speak her truth and never shied away from who she knows she is 🥰
What a great film! Honestly, the representation of culture and community was IT! This needed to be longer!
THE ROOM SCENE WHEN THE MUM CAME IN HAHAHAHAH SOOO RELATABLEE!!AAHAHAH "No KiSsY kIsSy" shi had me cackling
We need a sequel where Mose redeems himself 😢 that was not long enough, we need a series actually 😮
Stumbled on this via YT recommendations and it did not disappoint! Played so well by all and had a great deeper message, important in todays times ❤ hopefully we get to see more 🤞
(Also seeing TWG play a highschool student when he’s bigger than Matua made me giggle every time hhhh)
I’m gonna need more NZ/Aussie content for my Sāmoan heart. This was a cute film. Also that soundtrack though. Can I get the playlist? So thankful for RUclips because I’m out here in California and we can’t get NZ content like this. Great work. ❤❤❤
This movie will be talked about amongst our pasifika people for generations to come. I wished the movie was longer!! Lol however I thoroughly enjoyed 🎉❤ hopefully this encourages others with similar experiences to speak their untold stories 😊
Only came across this cos the actress who plays Brittany was one of my friends from school and had this up on her story, and funnily enough this whole movie is shot at our school 😂 the memories 👊🏻 enjoyable movie
It’s the mom giving Lisa the daughter treatment after she’s ok w it🤣🤣 and making mose sit by the window & faaaaaar away from lisa😂😂
WOW......WOW.....Such a BEAUTIFULLY WRITTEN, ACTED, EDITED & DIRECTED FILM, that is DEEPLY HUMANE, TOUCHING, CAPTIVATING, HEARTFELT and a work of ART....because it fearlessly and, at times, surprisingly merges fantasy with reality, concluding with the most IDEAL HAPPY ENDING, SELF-LOVE and LOVE FROM ONE WHO UNQUESTIONABLY and UNCONDITIONALLY LOVES YOU IN RETURN FOR BEING YOU!!!! THANK YOU VERY MUCH, for sharing this on RUclips, yet I would have HAPPILY PAID TO WITNESS IT'S BRILLIANCE!!!!!!!!
Oh man this film hit me in so many different directions ❤😭😭❤ that line that hit me "So how does love exist for someone like me?"
I love love this movie because it tells Lisa’s story from her own perspective. I watched this w my grandma and tbh i expected her to be judgemental but she supported Lisa the entire time & that’s the true power of movies like this
I may or may not have cried😩 Ps I love Lisa and Britney 🥹
ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT FILM! Needs more Lisa in my life! Part 2, 3 & 4!
I loved this movie ❤ Well done to everyone involved 🎉😍
Edit: Also, that Mum during the bedroom scene killed me 😂
Never thought I'd witness something better than the first Bridgeton, in the remained of the 2020's. Keep everyone involved in every part of this, when this blows up :-)
Showcasing our Pasefika languages ❤ I'm in love with this movie ❤❤
I'm not even Polynesian but i absolutely loved this movie and wished it was on Netflix and i can't wait to see more Polynesian/ Tongon movies in the making
Such a beautiful movie! I was laughing and reminiscing family moments but I was feeling scared for Lisa and my ❤ just had to cry omg! This is by far one of the best movies ever! A plus for island actors❤❤❤❤❤
We finally watched it, it was so funny and we all loved it and there should be more movies like this so proud us Tongan’s know exactly how Tongan mum’s are like 🇹🇴🇹🇴
Bravo ‘Amanaki! This film was magnificent, beginning to end. Great cast too! I love to see it.
This movie is good asfkkkkk😭🤣🤣🤣 it had me on the edge of my seat the whole time I most definitely need a part 2
Loved this! I wish it was longer, had me all up in my feels ❤ well done!
Amazing film! Gave the audience an insight of what it is like to be a fakaletiti in this day in age, beautiful film brought me to tears. #inkypinkyponky
Umm can Lisa get her own show? I want more! I loved it 😊
This film had me jumping out of my chair!! We need a series or a 2nd film pleeaasseeee!!! Loved it!

Give that BROTHER SOME LOVE FOR looking out for his tongan sister and helping her get back home we always got our island brothers back much love from 🇫🇯
OMG, its nice to the mum character have fun to the tevolo track.. in the theatre play it wasnt the same, hands down still carried :)
Loved this! I want to see more. A second film or maybe turn this into a series. I wanted to see Lisa end up with Mose, or someone better to make Mose jealous and realize what he lost.
Loved the ending! Fave part of this movie was Britney 🫶🏽
I can’t be the only one who was sad it finished!!! I was ready for more!!! Absolutely LOVED this!!!!!!! More more more Lisa!!!! 🫶🏽
Aroha mai Bub 💅🏼🤣🤣🤣
This movie had me laughing, crying, hella mad & then crying some more. Awesome work to all involved, best cast ever!
It's the loo'i hoosi for me, now im hungry! Love this, malo e ngaue lelei ❤ keep it up Polys! 🔥
Well done to the producers of the film, so many lessons to learn from this.
Brought out my unhealed inner child 😢understanding what she went through. Love this and the message she showed! ❤❤❤❤
I love this ending i wish more lgbtq movies end like this i love that she didnt ending up with her bully and knows her worth n he gets exposed from what he was doing to her this aint she's all that or 10 things i hate about u type ending
Totally AGREE!
This movie does a great job capturing poly parents. They love so hard a lot of times it can seem overbearing. But once you get older and have kids of your own, you see why. We love our kids more than ourselves and want what's best for them. Great movie. Thanks for putting this out. Hope to see more! Alofas from Federal Way, Washington!
Thank you this has opened my eyes to a struggle i never would’ve thought about before.
This is too damn good ❤ talk about screaming and cracking up instead of sleeping for work 😂😂
Love this and how it represents how a Leiti/Fafafine’s life is,they are strong women 🥺. Also love seeing Auckland polynesians talents on big platforms,proud 🤍
We deffs need a SECOND ONE!! Put it out already!!! I was so sad it finished 😭
Wow this was amazing!! Well done to all involved bringing this masterpiece to the surface. This deserved a big deal premiere. Loved the way it captured each character and overall feel of what kids these days are experiencing.
This movie had it all!!! Very well done 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Loved everything about this movie! Wish it was longer 😊 Great job!!!!!
Awww soo good Thank you Lisa for this wonderful movie, shed few tears watching this, if anything, I learn from this movie is to BE KIND ALWAYS PERIOD(Lisa's voice) can we have part 2
Wow, it's a very heart-felt movie. Im sorry for the fakaleitis I made fun of in the past. Fakamolemole 😢
😢😢❤❤
Sooo good ❤ Love the videography. Mama, Amanaki & JP - such amazing actors 😍
We need more island movies like this one this is my favourite movie to watch
❤❤❤❤❤ I absolutely loved this and want a part 2, 3, 4 and more!!! Thank you for a great story! Y'all should be so proud 👏 the lunch to the face scene was cinematic comedy gold!😅😂
