Taking its title from the Japanese word omoiyari—which translates to having sympathy and compassion toward others—Seattle-based musician Kishi Bashi's debut film documents his transformative voyage of facing his heritage and reconciling the painful history of Japanese American incarceration during World War II. With the "rising tide of discrimination against marginalized communities," Kishi Bashi shines a light on incarceration survivors' untold stories through this documentary film and accompanying orchestral pop album. This weekend, treat yourself to a ferry ride over to the Bainbridge Island Museum of Art for a special screening of the film to commemorate the anniversary of EO 9066.
