This movie explores the possibilities of interaction between man and computer, with some historical background. It demonstrates techniques introduced in the Disney movie Tron (1982), combining computer-synthesized animation and real-life object photography.
The film looks back at the life of a man named Oda and other Japanese Americans through the decades as they face great challenges and joys living in the United States.
This important tribute to the issei (first generation Japanese Americans) integrates the stories of three people who describe a collective history through their personal memories.
