Sixteen years later, blight strikes her island and to attempt to prevent it, Moana suggests going beyond the reef which her father forbids her to.

Tala, on the other hand, was very affectionate with Moana, trying to encourage her granddaughter to not only accept her responsibilities as future chief, but her love for the ocean and sailing. After Tala’s death, Moana immediately leaves Motuni to start her question restoring the Heart of Te Fiti alone without the aid of her father or any of her people. As she journeys to save her people, Moana still holds some care towards her father, despite the last time they have spoke as she has a nightmare of witnessing both her parents being affected by Te Kā’s curse. Some time later, Moana returns home to Motunui, joined by her crew, the other islanders and their fleet of rafts, and Maui, reuniting with her little sister and parents, and celebrating having reunited everyone across the ocean. In the first film, Moana is slim yet slightly muscular, with brown skin, brown eyes, a small nose and waist-length wavy black hair. Her clothing consists of a coconut fibre skirt, mainly beige with golden sun patterns and a red sash around her waist.
The film was directed by John Musker and Ron Clements from a screenplay by Jared Bush and stars Dwayne Johnson and Auliʻi Cravalho in her film debut. It features songs written by Lin-Manuel Miranda, Opetaia Foaʻi, and Mark Mancina, and an original score also composed by Mancina. The film is set in ancient Polynesia and tells the story of Moana, the strong-willed daughter of a chief of a coastal village, who is chosen by the ocean itself to reunite a mystical relic with the goddess Te Fiti.
- Te Fiti’s heart, a small pounamu stone, was sought after by the monstrous forces of the sea, until it was stolen by the demigod Maui.
- Looking out into the distance, she notices a glowing spiral on Te Kā’s chest and realizes that the lava demon is Te Fiti.
- After sadly telling the ocean to bring the heart to someone else, Gramma Tala appears as a spiritual manta ray and encourages her to discover who she is based on what she has learned, what she has lived through, who she has met, and where she comes from.
- Moana stands her ground at the thought of backing down and tearfully tries to force him to stay, only to be met with rejection and coldness from Maui, who tells her the ocean “chose wrong” when it chose her.
- Believing she’s failed as a sailor, Moana declares that she is not fit for the sea and wishes to place her stone on the mountain.
- With her dying breath, she tells Moana to go save her people and gives her the necklace used to carry the heart.
- She seeks to find Maui by following a constellation that looks like his fish hook, but a wave flips her sailboat and knocks her unconscious.
It also became the sixth highest-grossing animated film of all time, with a worldwide gross of over $690 million. After Moana was comforted and motivated by her grandmother’s spirit to continue her journey, Moana was still accompanied by Heihei as she resumed her quest. Upon returning to Te Fiti’s island, Moana kept Heihei safe inside her boat’s cargo hold as she confronted Te Ka.
When Moana became hesitant in returning home, Tala began singing a song in which she explained the positive traits she saw in Moana while giving her words of wisdom. This caused Moana to accept the kind of individual she is by embracing both her love for the sea and her people. It also gave Moana the confidence she needed to finish her quest in stopping Te Kā’s curse. Once she followed her grandmother’s advice, Moana discovered she and her people were descended from voyagers who sailed beyond the seas to find new islands. This discovery excited Moana, prompting her to ask her grandmother why they stopped sailing the ocean.
