Told in three unique stories, Songs of Love from Hawaii is a hybrid historical drama that uncovers the journeys of Hawaii's first Korean immigrants. From picture bride Lim Ok Soon to those isolated in Kalaupapa, their tales of love, sacrifice, and resilience come alive through stunning performances by world-class musicians and rare archival images against Hawaii's breathtaking landscapes.

“Music needs no words. It communicates for itself.” The film is a story of a viola player, Richard Yongjae O’Neill, who overcame the discrimination he had experienced due to his multicultural background. Along with children from other multicultural families, they all learn to communicate through music.
