Taking its title from one of Paul Gauguin's (1848 “1903) late paintings made in Tahiti, No te aha oe riri (Why Are You Angry?) 1896 (Art Institute of Chicago), Nashashibi / Skaer's film follows Gauguin's voyage to Tahiti. As a contemporary exploration of the established narratives that surround Gauguin and his time in French Polynesia, the film also functions as a reclamation of the exoticised woman and asks fundamental questions about representations of women, colonised lands and the power of myth.
