Join us for the final in-person screening of the festival and discover two powerful stories of Asian immigrant communities in the U.S. Baseball Behind Barbed Wire tells the story of the WWII incarceration of Japanese Americans, through the uncommon yet popular lens of baseball, America’s national pastime. October is also Filipino American History Month, and Nurse Unseen will explore the little-known history and humanity of the unsung Filipino nurses risking their lives on the frontlines while facing a resurgence of anti-Asian hate.

A filmmaker Q&A following the screening will include the Director of Nurse Unseen, Michele Josue, and Co-producer of Baseball Behind Barbed Wire, Loi Ameera Almeron.
