Storyboard Text
- sirena, you'd better get up there and help. mama needs.
- on a faraway island of guam lived sirena, a graceful chamorru girl.sirena had silky hair and big dark eyes that surveyed her world in constant wonder
- Her flaw was that her whole self was always yearning for the water
- however, one day her mother was in a particular bad mood. she had so much work to do. her cousin was preparing a huge feast, and the mothers job was to cook heaps of tapioca, fish, and coconut crab. all sirenas brothers and sisters were busy. sirena was splashing in the river when her youngest sister came down to fetch water.
- Sirena knelt trembling in a corner, her grandmother's hand on her shoulder. "No, please, no!" Sirena wailed when she heard her mothers curse.
- Sirena stopped at the waters edge. She saw the full orange moon rising above the distant horizon. Not a sound echoed from the watery silence. Sirena wept in fear and pain. She didn't want to leave her family-her mother and her grandmother. She didn't want to leave the soft grass and the waving palms. But her whole body wanted, needed the water. Its songs and hypnotic rhythms were part of her as much as the fragrant flowers and tender breezes of her tropical birthplace.
- Sirena ran into the water. she dove from the shallow and swam down the river until she reached the deep sapphire depths of the ocean. At once she began to change. She felt her legs binding, twisting, and turning, but not into a ugly gray scales. Instead, an iridescent tail stretched down from her waist. Sobs shook her body, but her clear voice and beauty remained unchanged.
