Inspired by the true life tendencies of many 442 veterans who have never shared their war experiences with family, this film shines a light on the interior battles that these aging heroes have had to face on their own. Written and directed by Eric Nemoto and edited by Denny Hironaga, the film stars Dann Seki, Denise Aiko Chinen, Devon Nekoba, Seth Okumura, and Allan Okubo. Some of the cast and crew will be available for a q&a after the film showing.
