The music and dance of Tahiti are not simply a carbon copy of Hawaiian hula, as is made abundantly clear on Pearls from the Sea. Tahiti and its performance arts are lively and colorful. For centuries skillful mariners, Tahitians are also known for their elaborate tatoos. The dances tell stories and also inform about the dancers' ancestry and lineage.

The music, full of percussion, is also great, and the interviews, revealing.
