[ Girl Narrating ]
In the old days, the land felt a great emptiness.

:01:33
It was waiting...
:01:36
waiting to be filled up...
:01:40
waiting for someone to love it...
:01:45
waiting for a leader.

And he came on the back
of a whale...

:02:01
a man to lead a new people.
:02:05
Our ancestor, Paikea.
:02:15
But now we were waiting
for the firstborn of the new generation...

:02:20
for the descendant
of the whale rider...

:02:23
- [ Screams ]
- for the boy who would be chief.

:02:28
[ Speaking, Indistinctly ]

[ Whispers ]
Paikea.

:02:47
Paikea.
:02:57
There was no gladness
when I was born.
