The 100th, Seeds of Aloha - Movie Screening Event

Sponsored by: Carl Williams (Curator of Heroes of the Vosges Museum) and the Sacramento Adult Buddhist Association

The 100th: Seeds of Aloha is a feature-length educational documentary dedicated to the 100th Infantry Battalion a unit predominately made up of Americans of Japanese descent (AJAs) from Hawaiʻ i who fought heroically to liberate Italy and France, earning the name "The Purple Heart Battalion". This film is a delicate balance of being respectful of those in the war effort while framing a hopeful and healing story of a post-war legacy that results in paradise rising from the ashes of war.

Be among the first to see this epic film, and comments and feedback are welcome. Q&A Session to follow the documentary.
