Description:
Filmmaker Linda Ohama uncovers a poignant, hidden history while exploring her grandmother Asayo Murakami’s life in this documentary. At 103, Asayo recounts her experiences in Japan, her journey to Canada as a "picture bride," her fight for a self-chosen marriage, and the hardships of WWII, including the Hiroshima bombing and her family's relocation. The film blends vivid dramatic recreations with a rich tapestry of memories, emotions, images, and voices. It culminates in a deeply moving reunion with a daughter she lost, offering a personal look at Japanese-Canadian history and celebrating a woman’s resilience.
