Review: Whale Rider on 16-07-2003

A touching family drama story, with a new talented young girl (Keisha Castle-Hughes) giving a wonderful performance. It gives insight in some (Indian ? Aboriginal ?) family matters and traditions, with some dramatic twists here and there. It has a few touching moments and even has a bit of humor. While it’s pretty predictable from start till end, it still manages not to get you bored.7½.
