Sinopsis: After losing his leg, Rapa Nui fisherman José Teao finds healing and renewed strength in the ocean. "Te Mana o Teao" (The Strength of the World) follows his journey of resilience and spiritual transformation, where the sea becomes a source of purpose, power, and connection.
Production is complete. We are now raising funds for post-production and festival distribution to bring José's story to audiences worldwide.
This project is fiscally sponsored by Bay Area Video Coalition (BAVC), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Donations are made to BAVC on behalf of Te Mana o Teao and are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.
Every donation, at any amount, moves this film forward.
Maururu - Thank you!
