This is a collection of six Documentary Short films. Included at the end, is a conversation between film lover, Janette Force and HONOR THY MOTHER Director, Lucy Ostrander.

HONOR THY MOTHER is the untold story of Aboriginal women from Canada, Washington, and Alaska who migrated to Bainbridge Island in the early 1940s. They came to pick berries for Japanese American farmers. Many fell in love in the fields, married Filipino immigrants, and settled on the island to raise their children. The voices of these children, now elders, tell of their experiences in a post-World War II racist environment.
