About this submission
An esteemed European-born male professor battles his ego, confronts his career, and engages with a rebellious feminist former student in the days leading up to his retirement from the University of Hawaii. As the two fumble toward some kind of intimacy, they must triumph over their historic animosities. Fireworks of gender, power, Marxism and indigenous culture raise the stakes toward denouement - and a final catharsis.
