What if the ocean itself chose you for a mission that could save an entire island?

Moana is a young Polynesian girl who dreams of exploring beyond the reef, but her island is facing a mysterious threat. When the ocean chooses Moana for an important journey, she must leave everything she knows behind and sail across the vast Pacific to restore the heart of Te Fiti.

Along the way, Moana discovers the legendary demigod Maui and convinces him to help her complete the dangerous mission. Together, they face enormous sea creatures, dangerous obstacles, powerful enemies, and the unpredictable ocean.

But this journey is about more than simply saving an island. Moana must discover the courage within herself, understand the legacy of her ancestors, and prove that she can become the wayfinder she was meant to be.

From breathtaking ocean adventures to Maui's legendary powers and the emotional final confrontation, Moana delivers a story about courage, identity, family, exploration, and believing in yourself.

Thousands of years ago, the people of Oceania were legendary voyagers who explored the Pacific. But their voyages eventually stopped, leaving a mystery that would remain for generations.

Moana, the daughter of Chief Tui, feels a powerful connection to the ocean. When a dangerous curse begins threatening her island and its people, she realizes that she must travel beyond the reef.

Her mission leads her across the ocean in search of Maui, the powerful demigod who once stole the heart of Te Fiti.
