The spirit of aloha is found in Hawaii's fresh ocean air, the
flowers, the trade winds . . . the natural beauty that smooth the
struggles of daily life. In 1922 Honolulu, unhappy in the adoptive
family that's raised her, Dolores begins to search for that spirit
early on-and she begins by running away at sixteen to live with her
newlywed friend Maria. Trying to find her own love, Dolores marries
a young Portuguese man named Manolo His large family embraces her,
but when his drinking leads to physical abuse, only his relative
Alberto comes to her rescue-and sparks a passion within Dolores
that she hasn't known before. Staunch Catholics can't divorce,
however; so, after the Pearl Harbor attack, Dolores flees with her
two daughters to California, only to be followed by both Manolo and
Alberto. In California, Manolo's drinking problems continue-and
Alberto's begin. Outraged that yet another man in her life is
turning to the bottle for answers, Dolores starts to doubt her
feelings for Alberto. Is he only going to disappoint her, as Manolo
has? Or is Alberto the embodiment of the aloha spirit she's been
seeking?
