My thoughts on the movie called " Whale Rider ", is that the movie shows types of rituals and chants that have a meaning. The tribe is from Hawai and in their tribe the leader can only be a man, but, in the movie that changes for the first time. The grandfather, whos name is Pucker, needs a new leader for the tribe. His grandson had died when he was born with his sister, the sister's name was Pai and her grandfather hated her because he didn't want her to be the leader of his tribe. Pucker thought that a girl shouldn't be the leader because in his mind, it would be bad for the tribe.
In my opinion, I think that Pucker was not being fair with Pai because he didn't want to give her a chance to prove that she can be a leader. Pucker didn't want her to be the leader because he thought that it would be an embarrasment to his ancestors. Pai felt sad because she thought that could be able to help his grandfather. Her grandmother was always there for her when she felt sad or lonely. In my opinion, it wasn't Pai's fault that she was a girl. The good thing about the movie was that Pucker gave Pai a chance to be the leader of his tribe because we should be given acvhance at something that we want to be.
