Such a beautiful process, singing to the Tree that will be a home. I think this is done in many Indigenous cultures through out the world.

FYI : Google search- DNA admixture of Fijians. It will say Asian and 30% Melanesian. Science thru blood and DNA is not a made up story- in Fijian it called : curu mai duru. Like pulling information out from some part of once body - namely backside.

The early fijian circumcision around the age puberty about the twenty years. In the book s the fijian-- AStudy of the Decay of custom Basil Thomson write that write that during pagan times , this coming of age may have arrived earlier . Circumcision was not strictly a religious rite Not Tonga custom

My mataqali is known as the Sauturaga ( king maker) when the paramount chief (Tui/king)is buried the head of the Sauturaga steps on the buried body to remove the power(sau) so that it can than be transferred to the successor during the anointment ceremony.The Fijian society is amazingly well structured that every body knows their role and where they belong.

There was no civilisation in the world started from Babel, Summeria nd moved on, without the giants/annunakis from Fiji. Mistakenly assumed by those dna culprits as Africans. Who(Africans) can't even build any large sea bus like the Drua doubled hulled canoes of Fiji to ship those gigantic stone slabs at the base of the pyramids in Egypt, India, China, Cambodia, Bosnia, America, Indonesia, Fiji, Hawaii + large stone works in Rapanui(Moai statues n huge stone walls), Hamo'onga Maui of Tonga, Stone henge of England, Nan Madol of Pohnpei, Stone henge nd hakuyawa huge stone wall of Aotearoa(nz)..etc Which were all done by gigantic Fijian annunakis..

Was recommended to watch this from a cousin of mine, and as someone who loves to consume a variety of 2D and 3D animation (especially anime) I thoroughly enjoyed this. The mixture between the problems in both the past traditional society and the present modern society is so raw. I love the background music you chose and the facial expressions of the background characters, both of which added so much depth into the message of this film. The artstyle used deserves its own praise as well for how well and different each character was drawn !! Keep up the good work bro....I personally give this masterpiece a rating nothing less of a 10/10❤

Great Clip about VITI MAKAWA. Showing how Ancestors do to sacrifice their physical body. So that their souls can go back to where the souls feels at home. The Vuravura ni Yalo. (Spiritual Realm) to protect their Loved ones Land and Sea. Their Land has eyes. Spirituality in fiji is another level!! For a small country they have the most God's than any other continent..crazyyyy
