The philosophy of KINTSUKUROI shows us that something shattered can be restored and made stronger and more beautiful. The term is an apt metaphor for the Japanese American experience of WWII.
Forced from their homes, farms and businesses, more than 120,000 Japanese Americans were unjustly imprisoned simply because of their race. Our new feature-length film KINTSUKUROI follows the Ito family from pre-war San Francisco to the concentration camps of the American West to the battlefields of Europe as it endures one of the most shameful periods in American History.
Doors open at 5:45pm.
Parking is available but spaces are limited but there is plenty of street parking. BART is a 10-minute walk.
Proceeds benefit J-SEI, a community care and cultural organization in the East Bay that provides services, programs and activities for Japanese American seniors. The screening is sponsored in part by the Berkeley JACL.
