Movie Nights at Moments Co-op: "Hito Hata: Raise the Banner"

Nostalgic For Nothing Cinema is excited to present the next Movie Night Fundraiser at Moments Co-op, featuring Hito Hata: Raise the Banner(1980, 93 min), directed by Robert A. Nakamura and Duane Kubo.

A landmark project directed by Robert A. Nakamura and Duane Kubo, Hito Hata: Raise the Banner is the first feature-length film made by and about Asian Pacific Americans. Capturing the contributions and hardships of Japanese Americans from the turn of the twentieth century, the film centers on Oda (the late veteran actor/director Mako), a feisty issei (first-generation Japanese American) and elderly single laborer living in Los Angeles’s Little Tokyo. Through a series of flashbacks, the story traces Oda’s life, from his time as a laborer on the transcontinental railroad to his struggle to save the home of Little Tokyo’s residents when the community is threatened with redevelopment.
