"description": "Documentary film on\n \n Manzanar\n \n that focuses on the region's relationship with water and with the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power, which owns much of the land and water rights in the area. The film also juxtaposes the forced removal of Japanese Americans to Manzanar with the forced removal of Native Americans from the Manzanar area in the 19th Century. The film also looks at the contemporary water related issues that saw Japanese Americans, Native Americans, and local white environmentalists come together. Much of the Japanese American perspective comes from\n \n Sue Kunitomi Embrey\n \n , the co-founder of the\n \n Manzanar Committee\n \n , and her family.",
