SUMMARY:15th Annual Films of Remembrance | Feb 21 & 22 in SF and San Jose
DESCRIPTION:SAN FRANCISCO\, Calif. — A carefully curated selection of 10 engaging films shedding light on a little-known chapter of American history while serving as powerful lessons for today’s assaults on civil liberties will be presented at the 15th annual Films of Remembrance on Feb. 21-22 in Northern California’s Bay Area and March 28-29 in Southern California. The event is the premier showcase of films commemorating the forced incarceration of more than 120\,000 people of Japanese descent in American concentration camps during World War II\, most of whom were American citizens.\n\nSelections range from creative animated or narrative shorts\, to impactful short and feature-length documentaries\, with the Showcase Presentation of the award-winning film Third Act. Some films even add some humor. \n“At a time when the history of people of color is being sanitized\, and celebrations of our experiences are being erased from federal government agencies\, it’s all the more important that we remember the destruction of civil liberties during World War II and its lessons for today\,” said Kenji G. Taguma\, executive producer of Films of Remembrance and president of its presenting organization\, the Nichi Bei Foundation. “In the face of such sanitization\, remembrance is resistance to erasure. We cannot let our history be marginalized again. There’s just too much at stake.” \n“I feel that all of the films are important and relevant\,” added UC San Diego Ethnic Studies Professor Christen Sasaki\, Ph.D.\, a Films of Remembrance Committee member. “In the classroom I always tell my students that history is alive and occurring in the present. We can all learn so much about the present by learning about the past — from mass incarceration to community building and resistance.” \nFilms of Remembrance commemorates the signing of Executive Order 9066 by then-President Franklin D. Roosevelt\, which put the wheels in motion to uproot a people. \nAccording to California State University\, Sacramento Ethnic Studies Professor Wendi Yamashita\, Ph.D.\, such films are more important now than ever\, as President Donald Trump is invoking the Enemy Aliens Act of 1798 to justify his plans for mass deportation — the very act that “was used to justify our incarceration.” \n“These films are always relevant because they document an important moment in U.S. history that teaches us about the fragility of American democracy and civil rights\,” explained Yamashita\, a Nichi Bei Foundation board member. “Today\, we are seeing the violent erasure of history by the federal government\, and these films refuse that erasure. These films remember state violence and explore the lingering trauma of state violence in deeply personal and intimate ways.” \n“I really loved Kioku: Remembrance because it provided me with so much hope\,” reflected Yamashita\, a member of the Films of Remembrance Committee. “It was so powerful to see students of all ethnic backgrounds who were so passionate about preservation and JA incarceration history in their hometown. I also appreciated Yonsei and Misadventures of a Nisei Week Queen for the way it explored Japanese American girl/womanhood in relationship to incarceration and identity. I could really connect with these films.” \n“I appreciate the fact that many of the filmmakers are expanding how we think about incarceration to think about its enduring impact through generations — as generational trauma but also generational healing\,” added Sasaki. “One of the films that I’m particularly looking forward to seeing is Tad Nakamura’s Third Act. Having gone through the UCLA Asian American Masters program and being a part of Asian American Studies\, I’ve felt Bob (Nakamura’s) impact on the community.” \nThis year\, thanks to Presenting Sponsorship from The Henri and Tomoye Takahashi Charitable Foundation\, Films of Remembrance is once expanding from a two-day event in Northern California to a four-day event including two days in Southern California — in partnership with the Japanese American National Museum and the Gardena Valley Japanese Cultural Institute. \nProceeds benefit the Wayne Maeda Educational Fund. Partial proceeds from ticket sales at Films of Remembrance will be donated by the Nichi Bei Foundation to local nonprofits. \nFor tickets and more information on this year’s event\, visit 2026.filmsofremembrance.org. \nVenues:\nSaturday\, Feb. 21\, 2026\, 11 a.m. to 7:30 p.m.\nAMC Kabuki 8\, 1881 Post St.\, San Francisco Japantown \nSunday\, Feb. 22\, 2026\, 11:30 a.m. to 7:15 p.m.\nSan Jose Buddhist Church Betsuin Annex\, 640 N.

Instead\, he challenges the status quo\, determined to get justice for his daughter. On his quest\, he works with a gender-justice NGO that sees in him an example for other men to follow. As the financial and emotional pressure of the case mounts\, the villagers turn against Ranjit\, and the boys’ families threaten murder. \nBiography:\nNisha Pahuja is a freelance filmmaker\, writer\, producer\, and researcher.

SUMMARY:Indian films playing at the Mostly British Film Festival
DESCRIPTION:A NIGHT OF KNOWING NOTHING\nWinner of the for Best Documentary at Cannes\, director Payal Kapadia creates an intimate look at social life at a Mumbai university through the way it intersects with India’s caste system. The film is skill- fully and artistically constructed through a series of letters of love and longing by a student to her estranged boyfriend – a separation forged by his family who deny them permission to see each other because she is below his caste. As such\, it addresses important issues such as Hindu nationalism\, the caste system and capitalism through the eyes of Indian college-educated youth.” \nNamed one of “The Best Genre Movies of 2022” by the New York Times. \nOne critic calls it “a testament to the inseparability of the country. \nIndia 2022 (99 minutes) \nBUY TICKETS

SUMMARY:SACHI Co- Presents Mira Nair's 'Mississippi Masala'
DESCRIPTION:The vibrant cultures of India\, Uganda\, and the American South are blended and simmered into a rich and fragrant fusion feast in Mira Nair’s luminous look at the complexities of love in the modern melting pot. Years after her Indian family was forced to flee their home in Uganda by the dictatorship of Idi Amin\, twentysomething Mina (Sarita Choudhury) finds herself helping to run a motel in the faraway land of Mississippi. It’s there that a passionate romance with the charming Black carpet cleaner Demetrius (Denzel Washington) challenges the prejudices of their conservative families and exposes the rifts between the region’s Indian and African American communities. Tackling thorny issues of racism\, colorism\, culture clash\, and displacement with big-hearted humor and keen insight\, Nair serves up a sweet and radical celebration of love’s power to break down the barriers between us. \nSACHI members can avail of a $3 per ticket discount by mentioning SACHI at the box office  \nFor More Information
