Traditions (2021)

Writer

Kari and her father Moku replace Missing Persons flyers of Kari's sister on the eve of a dangerous solar eclipse that blurs the boundaries between past, present, and future.

While the father-daughter duo perform a protection ritual, they are interrupted by a white influencer couple who ignore Moku's warnings. The couple's entitlement seals their fate when they travel back in time under the eclipse's influence and are captured by 17th Century Puritanical settlers. As Kari searches for the couple, she uncovers the truth behind her sister’s disappearance.
