Synopsis: The Land Has Eyes is about a young South Pacific Islander, Viki. Shamed by her village for being poor and the daughter of a wrongly convicted thief, Viki is inspired and haunted by the island's mythical ‘warrior woman’. Reminiscent of Whale Rider, the lush tropical beauty of Rotuma, Fiji, contrasts with the stifling conformity of her culture as Viki seeks indigenous justice and her own personal freedom.
