Le Prince du Pacifique est un film hispano-français réalisé par Alain Corneau, sorti en 2000.

Synopsis

Le capitaine Alfred de Morsac (Thierry Lhermitte) accoste en 1918 avec son navire militaire sur une île imaginaire appelée Fenua Poerava (« île de la perle noire » en tahitien), un paradis perdu dans l'archipel polynésien. Il est décoré de la Croix de guerre, et vient former un bataillon de tirailleurs océaniens pour renforcer les troupes de Verdun. Mais les habitants, les Hiva, sous la coupe de l'ignoble et cupide commandant Lefebvre, vont rapidement chasser l'officier français, qui entraîne avec lui Barnabé, un escroc au cœur tendre. Morsac s'est pourtant lié d'amitié avec un enfant, Reia, le prince de l'île. Ce dernier voit en lui le libérateur de son peuple. Néanmoins, la mère de Reia, Moeata, française d'origine, vivant en robe polynésienne et pieds nus, se méfie de ce Morsac.
