The first film ever permitted to shoot inside Honolulu's Iolani Palace.
Ka'iulani's given first name, Victoria, was a tribute to the Queen of Great Britain. In July 1843, Queen Victoria had helped to restore Hawaii's sovereignty and independence during the reign of King Kamehameha III. The queen's given names were Alexandrina Victoria, but she chose not to use her given first name. Similarly, Princess Ka'iulani chose not to use her given first name.
Ka'iulani means "highest point of heaven" in the Hawaiian language.
Princess Ka'iulani's full name at birth was "Victoria Ka'iulani Kalaninuiahilapalapa Kawekiu i Lunalilo Cleghorn," first born child of a Hawaiian Royal mother and a Scottish commoner father. She was born October 16, 1875 in the city of Honolulu, island of Oahu, Kingdom of Hawaii.
Actress Leo Anderson Akana, who plays Queen Liliuokalani in this film, has previously played both Liliuokalani and Princess Ka'iulani on stage. This was Akana'a first major film role, despite a long career as a professional theatre actor.
"[ending title card] Title Cards: Princess Ka'iulani died on March 6,1899 at the age of 23, less than one year after Hawai'i was annexed by the United States. Many believe she died of a broken heart at the loss of her nation. [ending title card] Title Cards: In 1993, President Clinton signed the "Apology Resolution" passed by Congress. The document offered an apology on behalf of the United States for the overthrow of the Kingdom of Hawai'i. [last title card] Title Cards: To this day, Hawaiians strive to perpetuate their culture and nation."
"[last lines] Woman: Hawaiians remember Princess Ka'iulani as the hope she brought to her people. The flame of our great chiefess burns brightly in the soul of our nation."
