Moana and her friends, the sweet Pua and hilarious Hei Hei, must set sail across the Ocean to save their island home of Motunui. Throughout her journey, she carries forth the legacy of her parents, Sina and Tui, and her beloved Gramma Tala, while wondering just “How Far I’ll Go.” She teams up with the legendary and egotistical demigod Maui (“You’re Welcome,”) to escape the “Shiny” clutches of the terrifying Tamatoa. But only the guidance of the Ocean, and the discovery of her own unknown strength, can help Moana defeat the fiery Te Ka and restore the heart of Te Fiti, to save her home –and humanity.
