With their lives on the line, the star-crossed lovers must choose between their hearts and the peaceful future of the tribe.Filmed on location in Vanuatu, breathtaking in scope and naturalism, based on a true story and performed by the people of Yakel, Tanna is an exotic Romeo and Juliet tale of forbidden love and crackling adventure, capturing the essence of youthful romance and the formidable pressures of tribal life.""In one of a traditional South Pacific tribe, a young girl falls in love with her chiefs grandson, although she is betrothed to another. Running away, they are pursued by enemy warriors desperate to enforce tribal law."
