Shows the struggle of the people (primarily native Hawaiians) of the Kaʻū region of the "Big Island" of Hawaii to preserve their own way of life and customs, plus their natural resources, by preventing outside developers from coming in to develop sugar plantations and build hotels, resorts, etc., which they say would do irreparable harm to, if not completely destroy, their way of life, customs, and natural resources.
