This is the story of I’iga Pisa. The survivor of those exiled in Mau A Pule movement, who made it back to witness Samoa winning back her freedom from colonial rule.
After escaping being exiled in Saipan by the Germans, I’iga embarked on an extraordinary journey to find his way home to Samoa, where he walked a fine line between the NZ administration and his own people, but would eventually help usher Samoa through to independence.
In loving memory of I’iga Olevia Muliaumaseali’i and the aiga potopoto of I’iga Pisa.
