Our Documentaries
By the end of the war, the Japanese American soldiers became the most decorated unit in US military history. But, more importantly, they helped change the world. History books, shamefully, omit their incredible contributions. This doc shines light on the brave, patriotic legacy of The Japanese-American Soldier of World War Two.
Over 40 years ago we met The Napalm Girl. The iconic photo woke the world up to the brutal reality of collateral damage. We traveled to Vietnam to the very spot where history was made to produce the Emmy Award-winning, The Power of a Picture for ABC7, Los Angeles.
During World War II, the US incarcerated 120k Japanese Americans. Stripped of their rights, their only crime was their heritage. This doc tells the story of the Heart Mountain internment camp in Cody, WY. Winner of four Emmys and two Edward R. Murrow Awards. Watch Act One here!
