Summary

After the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941, the US government sent thousands of Japanese American citizens to detention camps. In 1945, three Japanese-American sisters return to their farm in Stockton, California, after years in an internment camp, but the once prosperous family finds itโ€™s not easy to pick up the pieces of their former lives. As the details of their deceased fatherโ€™s final arrangements emerge, the sisters must work together to keep their dreams alive.

This recording is sponsored in part by California Civil Liberties Program from the California State Library.

Includes a conversation with actor George Takei, playwright Philip Kan Gotanda, and director Tim Dang.
