A crossroad where Japanese American Internment experience meets Post 9/11 Homeland Security craze.
A Japanese American filmmaker, Konrad Aderer confronts startling echoes of his own family's World War II internment as he joins the fight to free a Homeland Security detainee, Palestinian peace activist Farouk Abdel-Muhti who was detained in a post-9/11 roundup of Muslim immigrants. This intimate, revelatory film takes on profound personal and historical implications as Farouk, his son and the filmmaker each pay a personal price for resisting wartime policies.
Director/Producer: Konrad Aderer will do Q&A after the screening.
* Snacks and refreshment will be served.
