For media educator
Warrior princess Raya’s lone quest is to unite the scattered nations, secure the harvest and peace, and bring her father back to life. Raya’s most important strengths are her perseverance and courage. He also masters martial arts and strategic thinking. But even in this story, the hero does not survive everything alone: in the course of the film, Raya gathers a group of unexpected friends and comrades-in-arms.
Drawing from Southeast Asian culture, the adventure fantasy film focuses on Raya’s mission and its fulfillment, but also reflects on the themes of trust and loss. Turning all living things into stone, the monstrous evils are terrifying, and many characters have lost their entire families. The film is not dark, but in addition to losses, there are plenty of fight scenes and other dangerous situations. Lightening humor to the story is brought by a playful dragon with magical abilities and Raya’s random group of friends. (Source Media-avain.fi)
