This movie captures so many relevant issues, not only in our culture but in society as a whole.
This film actually broke my heart , because this is how i am with my nephew. Cause thats his dream is to play rugby...an everytime he plays i cry cause he can play rugby but i get hurt when his hurt from rugby. Love the film !
We wish all the best to you and your nephew! x
Jeandre thank you
That's very understandable as a parent you want the best for your kids of course u don't want them to get hurt and u always want to be by there side and protect them but u also have to let them make there own choices and there own mistakes and let them come to u when they need you but if u suspect ur childs in danger like tevita u help ur child coz thats wat parents are for i enjoyed this movie alot

There's more to life than rugby Tevita, like growing a proper beard!👌
Andrew Roberts 🤣🤣 didn’t see it till now

LOL IKR

So close to home ......can relate to it hardcore.... my own prodigal son came back home after 2 years....for his nannas 70th bday. Been the best reunion and healing ever. He always said.....my fathers the hardest man ever. But has taught me everything....my dad is my hero 😍
Great message of a fathers quite loyalty. And his sons goal to gain his approval. Majority of sons lucky enough to have there father have that personal goal in mind eventually. So true if none is gone well some will go to thinking suicide when no one is looking
THAT BEARD
Archie Pont yeah wrong ethnicity... Tevita is Indian
Hi mojoe,
Perhaps so - But you'll also find Tevita is a familiar Tongan name :) Quite familiar within the Samoan / Tongan community.
There are a few examples of people with such names: Tevita Li, Tevita Ofahengaue, Tevita Satae Etc.
We hope this doesn't offend you or anyone
Tevita is tongan for david, samoan its Tavita.
Funny cos his name ia tongan but his parents speak samoan lol
vannah sione -bruce I've known Samoan Tevitas. Both mean David in Samoan same way Sione and Ioane mean John.
Love this short film many of our generations need to share their stories like this one was beautiful.
Damn man. I nearly went there. What a film.as a father of 4 this just hits
The actress playing the mum Katerina Fatupaito i knew her from whangarei back in the day.
when?
Beautiful and blessings great relationship need heapz more of this kind of Awhi and support.
Unfortunately this is real shit happening today with our young ones.
Well teach them rugby doesn't last forever. That goes for every sport, and to plan for a future they can rely on. Nothing wrong with trying to play professional sport, just as long as you have something to fall back on.
Awesome film! Bravo!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
wow where has all this talent been hiding ... Keep it up :)

😍 beautiful film
Now Days is children try hard to impress our parents,But when they don’t listen sometimes we feel like when mean nothing to them.Our parents love ya more then we do.
Yeah kids these days think they know better then there own parents but for us as parents we just want the best for our kids and even though our kids don't always agree with our decisions we expect them to except it because we love and care about them it might be unfair to them but where just putting there best interest at heart some kids try to live up to there parents expectations just to make there parents happy even though there kids heart isnt there
That's Caleb clarke
The news reporter tho! 🔥🤙🏽
Wow this was moving.
I know how that feels. I didn't live up to the idea I had in my head of how I thought I needed to be as a pro player. I felt depressed and started to binge eat. What I didn't know at the time is that I was subconsciously trying to eat myself to death. It was what the Therapist helped me to discover. But what I discovered on my own Is that it is impossible to eat yourself to death with vegetables being that I'm a vegan.
Caleb Clarke made the cut😂😂2020 n dat
Never give up 💜
The dad is my friends dad
This is inspiring 💜🌟
Too close to home....

Came back to this, even though it’s a student film with questionable camera work, it proves that all you need for a good film is a good script. Loved the story so much.
bro sad story but the beard doe😂😂i think tevita is indian
Sweet Viibez Hiya, We chose Tevita as a name in order to incorporate and include both a Tongan and Somoan culture. Its a familiar name to Samoan-Tongan families. :)
Sweet Viibez 😂😂
thank you come again 😂😂😂😂
nice short...
50% comments bout his beard🔥
50% comments asking if tevita is Indian😂😂
I'm confused ? so was he gonna take the drugs to commit suicide or takeaway the pain ? and did he continue to play rugby or did he get a job as his father said ?
They messed up his name. If they are Samoan his name should be Tavita. Tevita is a Tongans name.
Daaamnnn ;((((
Oh shiiiit... That chick giving the interview!!! Dayummmm!!! Whats her name
Is cable Clark on this video
Beautiful k
Ofa atu
Sad 😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥🇹🇴🇹🇴🇹🇴🇹🇴🇹🇴🇹🇴🇹🇴💯
fuarkkk i can relate, im tearing up
I read the comments before watching n didn't get the whole beard thing everyone was talking about, then at the end I almost fell off my chair, what the hell was that??
😭😭😭
And at 8.10 the point chev pirates represented 😀
And the actor of the year goes to......
Tele e kava mashiiii 😂😂😂
Mean video
YEPA.
So sad movie
Samoa
David
the dad looks like my uncle
Ok
whats up with homies beard at the end
Luckily he just made it
Oh unluggy uce
😔😔😔😭😭😭
Wtf?! I don’t understand
If I was the dad I would be proud of him
Like 10 years to be finally livening his REAL dream.
Yes looking after his family is important but isn’t the son achieving his dreams important?
Like what the dad said “You can’t play rugby forever” umm? Same as looking after your family
It’s hooks me that dads are more proud of their sons looking after fam than achieving their dreams.
We hoped through this story to showcase the reality of this happening within family dynamics a lot. This story really wanted to be as truthful as possible but end with a happy ending, as to reconcile the son and fathers relationship.
Thank you I understand now.
Bring back Glen Osborne
lil ez n livia mccarthy famous lol

Sad
