VOICES FROM OKINAWA

By Jon Shirota
Directed by Tim Dang

Kama Hutchins, an American graduate student of one quarter Okinawan descent, teaches English in Okinawa, and receives an unexpected education in Okinawan- American relations. When asked to prepare a speech, the students rise up together as one voice that demands to be heard. From the author of LEILANI'S HIBISCUS and LUCKY COME HAWAII.
