DESCRIPTION:Generations of artists call Robert A. Nakamura “the Godfathe
 r of Asian American media\,” but filmmaker Tadashi Nakamura calls him Da
 d.  What begins as a documentary about his father’s career takes a turn
  with a Parkinson’s Disease diagnosis\, and evolves into an exploration 
 on art\, activism\, grief\, and fatherhood.  \n\n\n\nThird Act Film Scree

 n\n\n\n\nAs the filmmaking son of a filmmaking legend\, Tad uses the lesso
 ns his dad taught him to decipher the legacy of an aging man who was a chi
 ld survivor of the WWII incarceration of Japanese Americans\, a successful
  photographer who gave it up to tell his own story\, an activist at the da
 wn of a social movement—and a father whose struggles have won his son fr
 eedoms that eluded Japanese Americans of his generation. As Parkinson’s 
 Disease clouds his memory\, Tad sets out to retrieve his story—and in th
 e process discovers his own. The two have made films together\, with Rober
 t always by Tad’s side. THIRD ACT is the last. \n\n\n\nAfter the film\, 
 there will be an audience conversation with director Tadashi Nakamura. \n\

DESCRIPTION:Presented by the Japanese American Museum of Oregon and sponso

 ican Draft Resisters during World War IIA multimedia stage readingSunday\,
  October 4Doors: 1:30pm\, Program: 2:00pmMission Theater\, 1624 NW Glisan 
 St\, Portland\, OR 97209$15 general admission\, $10 senior/student rate \n
 \n\n\n\nGet Tickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDuring WWII\, young Japanese American
 s (Nisei) incarcerated at the Minidoka Relocation Center in Southeast Idah
 o\, faced a paradox: fight for a country that had stripped them of their c
 ivil liberties\, taken away their freedom and placed them and their famili
 es behind barbed wire\, not because they were the enemy but because they l
 ooked like the enemy\; or\, resist the draft because they and their famili
 es had been unconstitutionally and unfairly incarcerated.  \n\n\n\nThe Ni
 sei Paradox\, a multi-media stage reading created\, produced and performed
  by a group of judges and attorneys\, tells the story of 42 young Japanese
  Americans who chose to resist the draft and fight injustice through civil
  disobedience. These young men chose a different type of courage than the 
 many Nisei incarcerees who went to war—they chose to resist\, to oppose 
 unfair treatment\, to stand up to a stacked legal system\, only to lose th
 eir freedom for a period longer than the 2-year conscription period\, long
 er than the incarceration camps were open\, and longer than the war itself
