Who is the movie by because there is multiple movies

1: According to Maori legend, the whale rider was "a prophet who came on the back of a whale, a man who brought the people out of the depths of the sea to the surface." The Maori are the indigenous people of New Zealand. They are Polynesian and account for about 10% of the country's population.

2: According to Maori tradition, only the firstborn son can be a chief. Pai's father has turned down the honor, leaving only Kahu, a young girl, to carry it on. The cultural norms of the tribe are put to the test.

3: Pai loves Koro despite the fact that he does not appreciate her leadership abilities and, as a leader, you must display appreciation and affection for someone other than yourself, which Pai is doing, but she is still, in my view, respecting Koro solely because she is related to him.

4: Pai's reluctance to assume her people's conventional female gender roles contrasts with Koro's ideas about the masculine qualities needed for leadership in Whale Rider. In examining how identity and, more importantly, masculinity is portrayed. Koro led the children to an ocean cove and tossed his necklace into the sea, explaining that the boy who returned the necklace to him would be their people's next king, as selected by their ancestors. Koro became despondent when neither of the boys was able to recover the amulet, believing that the ancestors could no longer hear him. Pai returned to the same cove a few days later and successfully recovered Koro's necklace from the ocean bottom, revealing herself to be the tribe's true chief once more.

5:  In the film, the grandfather makes a reference for his son to lead. But what the Maori people really need is just a male to lead. They need a leader,regardless of their gender

6: Some geographic themes in Whale Rider are to name a couple, are heritage, fate, and environmental destruction.
