The model Marie, her younger sisters and brother spend a week of shooting in the Hawaii island of Molokai : Kishin Shinoyama doesn't miss a thing and succeeds in taking impressive shots of the casual intimacy of both the beautiful young women and the handsome young boy. He plays with great fortune with grains and colors: the choice of alternating series in colors and blue, green and sharp-contrast black monochrome in Hai ! Marie strongly reminds the reader of the fine Olele Olala (1971). A great special issue with a nice layout and different colors of paper who make the book very pop!
