"Using archival film and photographs; interviews with historians and Hawaiians; and new cinematography, this film documents the life of Queen Liliʻuokalani, Hawaii's last monarch. Born in 1838, she was educated in Western academic disciplines and etiquette and was an accomplished musician and composer who spoke several languages. Upon her brother's death in 1891, she became Queen of Hawaii. In 1893, she was forced to surrender the throne to the U.S., and in 1895 abdicated the throne."
"Born in 1838, Queen Lili'uokalani was a talented composer who took the throne after her brother's death in 1891. Working in secret, she created a new constitution to restore to native Hawaiians power that had been usurped by American sugar plantation owners. Undermined by the US government, Liliuokalani lost her throne in a takeover by the US Marines."
