Synopsis by Jason Buchanan
Filmmaker Cory Shiozaki highlights a neglected chapter in American history with this documentary focusing on the on the dignified Japanese-American men who were sent to internment camps following the bombing of Pearl Harbor, and who boldly rebelled against having their freedoms stripped away by furtively escaping into the Sierra Nevada mountains to fish for trout.
