HOULIHAN
Vaqueros of the Northern Range

Houlihan shows how buckaroos and Texas punchers came together creating a whole new cowboy culture. The catalyst in the mix was winter. The genesis of the vaquero and buckaroo came from more southerly climes, where cowboys can take “ as long as it takes” to get things done. In the north country, winter is king. And the byword is “winters a comin. Let’s get er done.”

HOLO HOLO PANIOLO
The Vaquero's Hawaiian Story

The Hawaiian cowboys inherited a rich history, originating with the vaqueros of Alta California, when it was still part of Mexico. The filmmakers take you to many of the ranches across 5 islands, the places where wild cattle that inhabited the volcanic slopes of Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea were chased down. Catching them demanded great horsemanship and uncommon bravery. This courage under fire is the birthright of the paniolo and prevails to this day. This very engaging film also features great interviews with original Paniolos and their music in the slack key guitar style.
