Divas, Movies


Moana is fabulous new Disney movie that anyone will love. It is the story of a brave young girl who goes on a journey to save her island in the South Pacific.

After the demigod, Maui, stole the heart relic of a goddess, the ocean chooses Moana to return the heart relic and return the island back to its fruitful state of providing for the people.

Fulfilling her destiny, Moana (played by Auli’i Cravalho) saves her island with the help of Maui (played by Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson who has a surprisingly good singing voice) and becomes the next in line to be the chief of her people.
