Grandpa Cherry Blossom

The story of Francis Uyematsu, a Japanese immigrant, told through the words of his granddaughter, Mary Uyematsu Kao, and Chuck Currier, a local historian and former teacher. Uyematsu created a booming flower nursery, owning 120 acres of land in Manhattan Beach until the Japanese-American Internment during World War II, when he was forced to sell his land. Entire neighborhoods now sit on his former land, including hundreds of homes and two high schools. And the flowers he created are no longer his.

Love is so short and forgetting is so long

Two interlocutors, a voiceless teacher and a voiceless student have a digressionary conversation about the history of education along the U.S.-Mexico border at the site of two different schools marked by genocidal colonial violence against children, "Robb Elementary" in Uvalde, Texas and the segregationist "Blackwell School" in Marfa, Texas. The circuitous exchange between the unheard interlocutors falters as they struggle to make sense of the normalization of school shootings in a country that has more guns than people.
