Sisters Matsumoto

By Philip Kan Gotanda

After the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941, the US government sent thousands of Japanese American citizens to detention camps. In 1945, three Japanese-American sisters return to their farm in Stockton, California, after years in an internment camp, but the once prosperous family finds it's not easy to pick up the pieces of their former lives.

Sponsored in part by the California Civil Liberties Program of the California State Library.

Includes a conversation with actor George Takei, playwright Philip Kan Gotanda, and director Tim Dang.
