Three thousand years
ago, the greatest sailors in the world voyaged across the vast Pacific,
discovering the many islands of Oceania. But then, for a millennium, their
voyages stopped – and no one knows exactly why. From Walt Disney Animation
Studios comes “Moana,” a sweeping, CG-animated feature film about an
adventurous teenager who sails out on a daring mission to save her people.
During her journey, Moana (voice of Auli‘i Cravalho) meets the mighty demigod
Maui (voice of Dwayne Johnson), who guides her in her quest to become a master
wayfinder. Together, they sail across the open ocean on an action-packed
voyage, encountering enormous monsters and impossible odds, and along the way,
Moana fulfills the ancient quest of her ancestors and discovers the one thing
she’s always sought: her own identity.
Directed by the renowned
filmmaking team of Ron Clements and John Musker (“The Little
Mermaid,” “Aladdin,” “The Princess & the Frog”), produced by Osnat
Shurer (“Lifted,” “One Man Band”), and featuring music by Lin-Manuel Miranda,
Mark Mancina and Opetaia Foa‘i, “Moana” sails into U.S. theaters on Nov. 23,
2016.
