Welcome to
Microwave Films of the Marshall Islands

January 2010 Release: Yokwe Bartowe

"Yokwe Bartowe must be the most honest film I have ever seen. Raw, down-to-earth and true to reality,
it becomes a statement about the Marshallese identity: humble, yet charming; troubled,
yet smiling; magical, yet believable... Many Hollywood directors indeed have a lot to learn
from Niedenthal, Chutaro and their crew."
-Peter Sutoris, Filmmaker

March 2009 Release: Ña Noniep

"It was thrilling to see a film that was conceptualized, written, cast, filmed and edited in the Marshall Islands
with a Marshallese cast and spoken mainly in Marshallese language with English subtitles...
Marshallese kids can now see that their lives and reality are worthy of exploration in film..."
--Dartmouth College Professor Andrew Garrod
