Rabbit in the Moon - DVD Summary Array

Not all Japanese Americans endured their World War II internment with quiet stoicism. Not all second generation (Nisei) young men welcomed the chance to prove their patriotism by serving in the armed forces of the very government that was holding their families captive. A more complex, turbulent and intimate story of the internment camps is revealed through the stories shared by those interviewed in "Rabbit in the Moon"-- a memoir/documentary by award-winning filmmaker, Emiko Omori. "Rabbit in the Moon" uncovers a buried history of political tensions, social and generational divisions, and resistance and collaboration in the camps. With fascinating archival and recently recovered home movies, Omori and her older sister Chizuko, who were children when they went to the camps, also confront their own family secrets - especially the silence surrounding the death of their mother only a year after the family's release. They correspondingly confront the collective silence among Japanese Americans about the social antagonisms and insecurities that were born in the camps and that still haunt community life 50 years later. AWARDS: Best cinematography in documentary films (SUNDANCE Film Festival, 1999); Outstanding Historical Programming (News and Documentary EMMY Awards, 2000); The John O'Connor Film Award for Best History Documentary of the Year (American Historical Association, 1999)
