Filmmakers Richard Imamura and Cory Shiozaki were at the Japanese American National Museum on Oct. 28 to sign first-edition DVDs of “The Manzanar Fishing Club.”
The film, which focuses on Japanese American internees who slipped out of the Manzanar concentration camp at night to fish for trout in the waters of the Eastern Sierra, has been shown throughout California and across the country. The DVD was officially released on Oct. 30.
