Digital Histories is a mechanism for AAPNHPI older adults to use their unique voices and perspectives in sharing stories with the generations to come. Since its creation in 2003, Digital Histories has provided a professional and artistic work environment for underserved, ethnic-minority seniors in the Los Angeles-based Asian Pacific American community. Past documentary projects have focused on issues such as discovering and preserving family histories, coming to terms with a gay child, and senior love and dating.
Bound together by their shared youth growing up in Los Angeles during the Japanese American internment camp and Vietnam War era, older sanseis gather for breakfast as an alternative to meeting at funerals.
This film was made as part of Visual Communications' Digital Histories storytelling and video production program for older adults, designed for older generations to create and preserve visual stories to be passed down to younger generations.
