Through the richness of their personal stories and the humor of their frequent jokes we witness the solidarity and soul of a "minority" who uses humor and togetherness to redefine family in order to overcome the hate they encounter everyday.

Ke Kulana He Mahu: Remembering a sense of place is the story of a group of people, young and old, surviving stereotypes, indignation, homophobia, and marginalization in a land where the ancient culture once accepted them as a part of society.
Ke Kulana He Mahu covers several aspects of the Honolulu gay scene; among them are Hawaiian culture and history, the drag scene, HIV, and religion.
