TEXAS PREMIERE followed by Q&A with filmmakers in attendance

Jalena Keane-Lee’s head-on testament to courage and sacrifice of the kiaʻi (protectors), Standing Above the Clouds lays bare the high-stakes battle of Native Hawaiians defending their sacred land against the proposed Thirty Meter Telescope being built—while laying bare the emotional cost of a lifelong fight for justice. More than a protest, Standing Above the Clouds is a profound portrait of the women who carry the weight of history on their shoulders. - Tony Nguyen, Feature Film Programmer
