Transcending: The Wat Misakka Story

Transcending: the Wat Misaka Story is inspirational and very informative of the prejudice against the Japanese Americans during the Japan American war. Christine and Bruce Johnson are very nice people that have made a documentary that has given Wat Misaka amazing exposure. The film includes great interviews from Wat Misaka and his family and friends. Using real photographs and video footage was helpful and getting a perspective on the Japanese American. Newspaper clippings also added a god touch because it gave you a sense of environment and the attitude during that time. My favorite aspect of the film was how the video played inside the news clipping, which I thought was creative and entertaining. The sound quality and picture of the film was was very good and was edited well. Also the music went well with the tone and story line of the film. It was also consistent with the time frame. The film is inspirational and an important story to be shown.
