"Stallone “S.Q.S.” Vaiaoga-Ioasa’s feature debut Three Wise Cousins was a self-funded hit that proved audiences were hungry for mainstream Pacific films that put Pacific Islanders in the spotlight. It resulted in a film that asked you to forgive some huge pacing problems and dicey acting to support something greater – the growth of a filmmaker we need. His second feature, Hibiscus & Ruthless, is a better film both aesthetically and on a storytelling level. It’s also really, really funny."
