"ʻO ka Mokupuni o Nimes" kahi hōʻailona o ka puke na Wendy Orr, i paʻiʻia i ka makahiki 2002. Nānā -ʻo ke kāne a me ka wahineʻo Jennifer Flackett a me Mark Levin i kāheaʻia e kākau i kahi hōʻailona no ka puke, a laila e hoʻololi i ka palapala.
ʻO ka'ōpiopio i kēia manawa -ʻo kahi kaikamahine liʻiliʻi me kahi inoa nuiʻo Nim e noho olaʻole ana ma kahi moku i haʻaleleʻia ma waenakonu o ka Moana Pākīpika me kona makuakāne makuahine,ʻaʻohe pilikia aʻaʻole hoʻi e hōʻole iā ia iho (hōʻikeʻo ia i nā mea e hoʻoiliʻia ai iā Robinson Crusoe) . ʻO ka makua Nim,ʻo Jack Russo, kekahi o kēlā mau haumāna akamai i aloha i kā lākou mau keiki. Akā, ua hopohopo nuiʻo ia no ka weheʻana i kahiʻano nanoplankton -ʻaʻohe mea'ē aʻe, koe wale nō kēia meaʻai o nā koholā. ʻO ka makuahineʻo Nimes i ka manawa hoʻokahi, he laʻa nui ia e lilo i mea maʻamau i kahi kohola i ka moana, no ka mea,ʻo ke mele a me ke kaikamahine e noho nei ma kahi kaʻawale.
ʻO kēlā me kēiaʻekolu mahina e holo mai kahi mokuahi iā lākou me nā mea a pau e pono ai no ka heluna liʻiliʻi. ʻO nā hoa wale nō o Nim maʻaneʻiʻoʻo Iguana Fred,ʻo ka Liona Selki,ʻo ka Ctle Chiki a me ke pelican Galileo. I loko o kona manawa kūʻokoʻa,ʻo ia wale nō ka hana a ke kaikamahine a piʻiʻo ia i nā lāʻau pāma, e noho ana ma ka Pūnaewele a heluhelu i nā puke e pili ana i kona kiʻi kiʻi kiʻiʻo Alex Rovere.
Ke haʻalele ka makua kāne makuahine i kekahi mau lā ma ka huliʻana i kahiʻano hou, e waiho ana i ke kaikamahine. I ka wā e hoʻokaniʻia ai ka makani nui o ka Pākīpika, hoʻomakaʻo Nim e hopohopo no kona makuakāne. ʻOiaiʻo ia me ka maopopoʻole, ua kākauʻo ia iā Alex Rover, ka mea kaulana o nā puke, e hāʻawi mai e hele mai i kona mokupuni.
Hiki ke ukuʻia kahi mele kiʻiʻoniʻoni o ka pīʻani e ka hana maikaʻi. Ma ke poʻo inoa o ka moʻoleloʻokoʻa,ʻo Abigail Breslin nā mea hoʻokani, i hoʻokani maikaʻi loa i ka "Mīlē Paʻi Loa". ʻO Gerard Butler, he iki iki ma hope o nā "300 Spartans," ke hana nei iʻelua mau kuleana -ʻo Makua Nim lāuaʻo Alex Rover. Ua pilikia ikiʻo Jodie Foster. Ua hulaʻo ia i ka mea kākau moʻolelo Alexandra Rover, ka maʻi mai agoraphobia - no hoʻokahi hebedomaʻaʻoleʻo ia i hukiʻia mai waho aku o ke keʻena. Akā, hoʻokaniʻo ia me ka noʻonoʻoʻole - pehea e hiki ai ke kūpono no nā holaʻelua e noho ai i kahi ao'ē aʻe a aʻo e aʻo i kaʻino? Uaʻoluʻoluʻia me ka liona (a ua manaʻo wau he hōʻailona ia),ʻoiai he mea hui keahi puʻupuʻi hui, a he pelican maʻalono, e kōkua ana i ke kanaka Butler i kahi manawa paʻakikī. Hiki keʻikeʻia i ka wā i pau ai ka hoʻolālāʻana i kahi kiʻi kiʻi kiʻi kiʻi.
ʻO kekahi o nā mea koʻikoʻi o kēia kiʻi'anima,ʻo ia ka leo o Oscar-lanakilaʻo Peter Doyle a me ka Orchestra Hollywood o ka Hui, aʻo ia ka mea i hiki ai ke hoʻokipa i ka mokumoku o ka mokupuniʻo Nîmes.
Kuhiʻia ke kiʻi i kahiʻano keiki, akāʻaʻohe maikaʻi i loko o ka'āpana,ʻo nā laina lainaʻekolu keʻokiʻia me kekahi me kekahi manawa a i kekahi manawa eʻikeʻoeʻaʻole pololei kēlā me kēia laina i kekahi i ka manawa. ʻAʻole hiki ke hoʻomaopopo a makemakeʻiaʻo Butler e hoʻokaniʻelua i ka manawa aʻo Jodie Foster e ho'āʻo nei e unuhi i ka mea makaʻu i ka mea kākau holoʻokoʻa.
ʻO ka Mokupuni o Nimes, i hanaʻia no nā keiki, a me ka mea hoʻonanea,ʻo ke kaikamahine a me kāna mau mea pīpī liʻiliʻi, me he mea lā, e like me nā mea aloha liʻiliʻi i kēia wā.
