Narrator, Kerry Armstrong.<br />
This documentary is a visual exploration of the sexual mythology that has for<br />
centuries defined our notions of the Pacific Island woman. The hula girl is one<br />
of the most potent and sexually alluring images in popular culture today and has<br />
been for centuries. Award-winning documentary maker Trevor Graham asks why this<br />
popular rendering has maintained such a grip on the Western imagination as he<br />
looks at 18th century illustrations, Gauguin's famous island paintings as well<br />
as footage from both celebrated and less well-known Hollywood films. This<br />
documentary takes as its starting point the records of the first Western<br />
encounters with the beautiful Polynesian women of the Pacific. French explorer<br />
Bougainville relates in his journal his meeting with the Polynesian women who<br />
shed their clothes in welcome and when he returns to Paris he publishes an<br />
account that is widely-read and causes a sensation. So the Western image of<br />
Polynesian women and the island paradise is born into the popular imagination.<br />
Captain Bligh's inflammatory account of the mutiny on the Bounty also lays the<br />
blame for the mutiny at the feet, (or more precisely the hips) of Polynesian<br />
women and the myth of paradise and the seductive hula girls bedevilling men is<br />
perpetuated.<br />
