Multiculturalism, civil rights during wartime, discrimination and citizenship are explored as four Canadian citizens of Japanese origin remember their forced relocation to remote ghost towns and detention camps after Pearl Harbour. The shattering effects on the lives of the 22,000 interned are recalled- the pain of separation; shame of confinement; loss of property without compensation, and the long campaign for justice culminating in the Federal Government's apology.
