Silent Years (James Sereno, 2004)

“After years of repression, a woman must journey back to her past and confronts her memories of teenage abuse while growing up on the Big Island of Hawaii.

Adapted from selected poems by renowned Hawaii author Lois-Ann Yamanaka, Silent Years tells a universal story using the unique dialect of Hawaiian Pidgin English.”
