About the Film
The unique wonders of Hawai‘i are explored in this illuminating, off-the-beaten-path tour of Hawai‘i’s six major Hawaiian islands: Hawai‘i Island, Maui, Lāna‘i, Moloka‘i, O‘ahu and Kaua‘i.
While popular visitor destinations such as Honolulu are highlighted, much of this captivating hour features areas that can be accessed only by helicopter—or the extremely adventurous hiker. The itinerary includes unspoiled rain forests, majestic valleys, otherworldly volcanic landscapes, spectacular sea cliffs, and idyllic beaches where turquoise waters meet pristine white sands. "OVER Hawai‘i" also ventures under, diving into Hawai‘i’s waters to visit coral reefs teeming with sea life.
"OVER Hawai‘i" celebrates not only the scenic beauty of Hawai‘i but its cultural heritage as well, featuring commentary by people who call Hawai‘i home and who tell the islands’ stories from an authentically Hawaiian point of view. The soundtrack showcases a wide range of traditional and contemporary Hawaiian music.
Blending breathtaking scenery with fascinating insights, "OVER Hawai‘i" reveals the remarkable diversity of America’s 50th state.
"OVER" Hawai'i" premiered Saturday, Nov. 5. See TV schedule for reruns

What a sham of a video, especially for my PBS station to broadcast it as Asian Pacific Heritage Month special. This is just a tourist video. I wouldn't mind it if it was part of a travel video, but to put it as one of the 5 shows to highlight Asian Pacific Heritage? Are they for real?
Hey Everyone:
Uhm, please ignore 'Norm'. He's just trolling. Really. Some people get off on seeding comment boards with nonsensical or controversial B.S. simply to see what kind of reaction they can get. Pathetic yes but a fact of reality in our online world. The common advice is, "Don't feed the troll." Just ignore them.

As for the show, I thought it was simply wonderful.

What a wonderful way to se our magnificence ! We love Maui from the ground up, and there is no doubt God bestows upon us the best we can physically experience on earth. The Aloha breadth in those who truly love the "aina" (land), has welcomed us home for twenty years. We offer up our best to one another working with the ground that provides a garden of nourishment and beauty. The helicopter bird's eye view delivers the bigger details, and we are grateful to have had a peek from above in its entirety. All who are blessed to have been born in the islands bless us who came in search for a place to call home.
We come from Canada and have visited the Islands of Hawaii 7 times. They are magical. They are each so different and wonderful in their own way. I consider the helicopter ride over Kaua'i one of the highlights of my life, so this movie let us see the other islands in the same way. We just returned from our last stay and can not wait for the next trip when I hope to take my grandchildren on just such a ride.
Wow Norm you must be a haole!!! Such negativity about MY HOME!! I am from the Big Island...born in Hilo!! You just have the blinders on man take them off and look for the beauty in everything!!! The lava flows are just part of the beauty a huge part! If you no like then don't come and bad mouth Hawaii no more!!!
Seriously! I was in Hawaii for the first time this past year, on Hawaii, Maui and Kauai. It was a life changing experience! I don't know if Norm lives in a place that has lava fields, 80 ft waterfalls and some of the most diverse scenery on the planet but if he can't find something beautiful in Hawaii, it says something about him, not Hawaii. It saddens me that people can be so unappreciative and blind to the wonders of our planet... Lorena, I'd move to Hilo in a heartbeat! We stayed in Pahoa and can't wait to come back!
TIM? WAS THAT U? I AM SUPPOSE TO CALL U! THIS PAST WEEK, IT WAS SUGGEST THAT I CONTACT YOU! AND, LO-AND-BEHOLD. U R ON TV? WTF? SCOTT
Blue hawaiian helicopter ride I just took in the big island was the biggest waste of time in my whole life.He flew over some dead lava fields and some farm lands,oh yah we saw a 80 foot water fall big deal.The so called "circle of fire" was by far the biggest waste of time and money I was looking so forward to seeing this"circle of fire" and saved it for the last few days of my trip hoping of a great time with all the hype and all it was is a complete waste of time
Norm, I feel sad that you can not understand the beauty nor feel the sacredness of Hawai'i. Both you and the 'aina are the loser.
Norm, i have the feeling that you might be happier in Las Vegas. I bet they've got some Circles of Fire that'll thrill yr soul.
"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder." I only can wish could get any Hawaiian helicopter ride, so do not take such a special place for grant.
That saddens me to hear you speak that way about the aina Norm. Perhaps you shouldnʻt waste any more of your time or money coming to Hawaii nei.
Wow. What's that saying? If you can't say something nice....don't say anything at all?
What did you expect a lava field to look like??? ALL lava fields are dead dude! You obviously don't appreciate the true beauty of Hawai'i.
I hear Hawai'ian Radio Connection DJ, Braddah Stephen Gomes is going to be on one of these shows, (He is from Kaua'i) and I can't wait!!
Hawaii is one of the most beautiful places in the world. I have a son in law that married my daughter and he is from The Big Island of Hawaii. He is a very special person full of compassion and understanding such as is his culture. He is a true native Hawiian.
