Description

During World War II, Japanese in the U.S were interned into what has been called 'America's Concentration Camps.' CONVERSATIONS is a fictionalized presentation of facts, experiences, and feelings that explore the deep-seated and personal effects the incarceration has had on three former internees. Some forty years later, they are still coming to grips with the past and-like all people-are striving to live well in the present.
