In the heartfelt short film 'The Vaka That Waited,' we witness a deeply moving journey of rediscovery as New Zealand born Cook Islander ‘Chelsea Cuthers-Munro’ embarks on a soul-stirring voyage to reclaim her heritage.

Chelsea's journey highlights the struggles of many individuals who feel disconnected from their cultural heritage and the importance of reclaiming one's identity. Chelsea's experience with negative online shame leads to a deeper exploration of how societal pressures and stereotypes can affect one's sense of self-worth and cultural pride.

The documentary also emphasises themes of healing and empowerment. Chelsea ultimately finds solace, a renewed sense of identity, and a profound feeling of belonging as she courageously sets sail on her Vaka, beginning her voyage back to her roots.
