"World Healing in Hawaii" (Silver Telly Award winner, directed by Bob Duerr; USA, 2004, 17 minutes). Three Filipino children come to Hawaii for brain surgery for facial deformities and to heal with aloha.  This short film highlights the groundbreaking whole healing work of Hawaii's World Healing Institute.  It features Operation Smile and Doctor Bill Magee, one of the world's reknown brain surgeons.  Together they team with the the U.S. Army's Tripler Medical Center to give three children a new face in life.  With a slack key guitar soundtrack by Keola Beamer and Mark Nelson.
