Set against the dramatic island backdrop of Hawaii and based on the inspiring true story, this film is a breathtaking romance about an unlikely heroine and her unwavering fight to defend the independence of her people. In 1888, Hawaii was a paradise teetering on the brink of civil unrest. When the palace was overthrown, young Princess Kaiulani was sent to Victorian England where she underwent a harsh and testing education that equipped her with a sense of honor and duty. There she also fell in love with the spirited and rebellious young Englishman, Clive Davies. Emerging from her childhood and inspired by her blossoming romance, Kaiulani set sail for America to meet President Grover Cleveland, to prove that she and her people were not the “barbarians” portrayed by the American press.
