Delicately peeling back the layers of her grandmother’s life, filmmaker Linda Ohama discovers a painful, buried past in this feature length documentary. In poignant interviews, Asayo Murakami, now 103 years old, recalls life in Japan, her arrival in Canada as a "picture bride," her determination to marry a man of her choice, the bombing of Hiroshima and the forced relocation of her family during World War II. Beautifully rendered dramatic sequences are merged with an exquisite collection of memories, feelings, images and voices. Culminating in an emotional reunion with a long-lost daughter, this film is a personal reflection of Japanese-Canadian history and a testament to one woman’s incredible endurance and spirit.
