A new indie film that takes place on Hawaiʻi Island’s east side has been selected to participate in this year’s Hawaiʻi International Film Festival. “Chaperone” was written and directed by Hawaiʻi Island resident Zoë Eisenberg. The film, shot in Hilo, is about 29-year-old Misha, a woman without much ambition. She starts a relationship with high school senior Jake, who thinks Misha is his age, which results in some reckless behavior.
