The film will be screened on November 10 at 4 p.m. at the 39th Hawaiʻi<\/span> International Film Festival (HIFF<\/abbr>), at the Regal Dole Cannery Stadium Theatre in Iwilei. Tickets are free and available at hiff.org.<\/a><\/p>\n

A short video of the opening of the State Capitol in 1969, filmed by George Tahara, will precede the newly restored footage documenting the weavers\u2019 process, which was filmed by Web Anderson, Ruthadell\u2019s husband.<\/p>\n

The ʻUluʻulu<\/span> Archives, the official moving image archive of Hawaiʻi<\/span>, is meant “to perpetuate and share the rich moving image heritage of Hawaiʻi<\/span> through the preservation of film and videotape related to the history and culture of Native Hawaiians and the people of Hawaiʻi<\/span>.”<\/p>\n

The archives, a project of the University of Hawaiʻi<\/span> Academy for Creative Media System and ÌÇÐÄVlog¹Ù·½<\/abbr> West Oʻahu<\/span>, are located in the campus\u2019s library.<\/p>\n
