Abstract:

"In the first days of World War II, 120,000 Japanese-Americans were taken from their homes and locked in concentration camps for the duration of the war. Invisible Citizens examines the lives of six Japanese-Americans and explores how they have been affected by the internment. It is the first in-depth look at a group of people whose pride has kept their pain and suffering concealed from the general public. Invisible Citizens prompts viewers to consider America's 'hidden histories' and how we, as a people, look at our past.."
