Moving and showing how poverty and the requirement to tithe time and money to the church impacts on a family. You have to admire the father for his commitment and decency. Powerful story of Polynesian working class life. Saia Mafiel’o is a humble hero.
For My Father's Kingdom
Director Vea Mafile'o's Tongan father Saia drives this deeply personal film. Vea raises thorny questions about the relationship between money and the church in Tongan culture, questions that caused her Kiwi/Tongan family pain. Pensioner Saia Mafile'o's dedication to raising large amounts of money for Misinale (an annual church celebration) upset his children and splintered his marriage. Mafile'o returns to Tonga with her father and siblings, to attend the Misinale and learn why the financial sacrifice matters to him.
