Moana is a 2016 American 3D computer-animated musical fantasy adventure film produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios. The film, directed by Ron Clements and John Musker, is voiced by Auli’i Cravalho as Moana and Dwayne Johnson as Maui.

Moana is a 16-year-old girl, a daughter of the Motunui chieftain. Moana had been eager to sail the ocean since childhood, but was thwarted by her father because her father considered the ocean dangerous.

Moana must save her village from the destruction caused by Te Fiti. Te Fiti is the goddess of the creator of all islands and life. Te Fiti’s heart is a green stone stolen by Maui the demigod. As a result, Te Fiti destroyed the surrounding island. Moana invites Maui to return the stone, but Maui is unruly. Moreover, Maui now has no power. First they have to find Maui’s weapon that fell on the bottom of the sea. Moana and Maui have to face a magic crab that likes to collect valuable objects. And the most challenging is how Moana and Maui pass a lava giant named Te Ka to meet and restore Te Fiti’s heart.

Of course, Moana isn’t just a fun and fun Disney cartoon to watch, but Moana teaches me a lot.
1. Follow your heart
Like Moana who was very interested in the sea, but the father instead told her to stay away from him, but after Moana followed his heart he found something interesting afterwards even he managed to save his world and many people.
2. Strong and Brave
Moana is a little girl with strong desire and courage, even desire is able to turn fear into courage.
3. Apologize and Forgive
Maui has taken Te Fiti’s heart which angers Te Fiti. However, Moana asks Maui to apologize for her mistake to Te Fiti. Although Maui’s mistakes are big, But Te Fiti remains proud to forgive him. Even Te Fiti was kind enough to repair the broken Maui Hook.
4. Try as hard as we can
Moana never gave up even in the storm, she continued to step until her wish materialized. To achieve your wishes, you have to work on them seriously. Don’t let doubt or even fear deceive you and keep you away.

There’s still a lot to learn from this Moana Movie. However, what I mentioned above is something that has a good impact for me.
