Description
Local Hawaiʻi resident and Director Ryan Kawamoto has created multiple documentaries about internment and incarceration in Hawaiʻi with his production company Kinetic Productions. "Untold Story" originally aired on PBS Hawaiʻi to critical acclaim. Thanks to Pacific Historic Parks, the community will be able to watch the one hour film for free at the Doris Duke Theater at the Honolulu Museum of Art. This special film screening will be followed by a discussion of Honouliuli and Hawaii's internment experience with panel members, including Ryan Kawamoto himself, Carole Hayashino, the former President/Executive Director of the Japanese Cultural Center of Hawai‘i, and Sandi Chang, whose grandfather was held at Honouliuli Internment Camp.
The Untold Story: Internment of Japanese Americans In Hawai‘i, produced by the Japanese Cultural Center of Hawai‘i, written/directed by Ryan Kawamoto, is the first full-length documentary to chronicle the internment experience of Japanese Americans in Hawai‘i.
