Through excerpts of letters, journal entries, and haikus written at the time, as well as newspaper clippings, archival photographs and film footage, and a few dramatic recreations, this documentary is able to reconstruct the story of Inaâs parents and the 120,000 others who were detained by the U.S. government because of their Japanese heritageâboth legal aliens and U.S. citizens. While interned in the prison camps, without legal representation or the right of due process, they were asked to answer a loyalty questionnaire. When Inaâs parents protested and demanded their legal rights, they were accused by the FBI of being disloyal and sent to a separate camp for enemy aliens. This film explores their feelings of betrayal and creates a genuine understanding of why and how they chose to renounce their citizenship.
Although, at 57 minutes, the film feels a little longer than it needs to be, the editing and technical aspects are well done. The narration is in English, with translations of written Japanese provided when necessary. Unfortunately, the DVD itself is designed to work like a VHS tape in that there are no chapter breaksâthe only way to move through the program is fast forward or rewindâand, while there is a version of the DVD available with Japanese subtitles, I suspect they are âhardâ subtitles.
Highly recommended for high school, college, and general audiences.
