“ Malo fau and many thanks rightfully yet forthrightly go to both amazing Vea Mafile'o and Jeremiah Tauamiti as up-and-coming film-makers of great abundance, brilliance and excellence. This newly-released film "For My Father's Kingdom" is not only a great work of art (and literature) in film-making (tufunga hele'uhila) but also in script-writing (tufunga tohi[talanoa]), storytelling (faiva talanoa) and acting (faiva 'eti/faiva hele'uhila) -- all as a multiplicity of intersecting or connecting and separating material (tufunga) and performance (faiva) arts -- which actively albeit critically engages in the production of images ('ata/kupesi) through sustained symmetry (tatau) and harmony (potupotutatau) to produce beauty (faka'ofo'ofa/malie) -- thereby transforming them from a condition of chaos (felekeu/fepaki) to a situation of order (maau/fenapasi) by means of the medium light (maama), in either black ('uli) and white (hina/tea) or colours (lanu). Their effective equal-to-the-task handling of both the Tongan age-old performance arts tragedy (faiva fakamamahi) and comedy (faiva fakaoli) as intersecting or connecting and separating psychological-emotional, social-cultural tendencies in the overall production of the film is highly and earnestly yet deservedly and befittingly congratulated and praised for their reflective sense of both creativity and originality. May I join the ranks by humbly saying from the height of my mind and depth of my heart, "Malo lahi 'ae ngaue lelei, malohi, mo'oni mo faimateaki and 'Ofa atu fau moe manatu ma'u!" ”
