DESCRIPTION:The Japanese diaspora in Peru has its roots in a vital and rest
 less history that extends back to arrival of the first migrant laborers at
  Lima&amp;rsquo\;s Callao Seaport. In this program presented in conjunction wi
 th &lt;em&gt;Transpacific Borderlands: The Art of Japanese Diaspora in Lima\, Lo
 s Angeles\, Mexico City\, and S&amp;atilde\;o Paulo&lt;/em&gt;\, two filmmakers take
  personal journeys into the Japanese Peruvian experience\, uncovering capt
 ivating stories of migrants and artists\, dissidents and dictators.\n\nKao
 ri Flores Yonekura&amp;rsquo\;s &lt;em&gt;Nikkei&lt;/em&gt; (2011) is an exploration of th
 e filmmaker&amp;rsquo\;s family history in the Americas\, while Ann Kaneko&amp;rsq
 uo\;s&lt;em&gt; Against the Grain&lt;/em&gt; (2008) documents the work of four artists
  who defy decades of civil war and tyranny to reimagine Peruvian visual cu
 lture. Among those artists is Eduardo Tokeshi\, whose work is featured in 
 JANM&amp;rsquo\;s &lt;em&gt;Transpacific Borderlands&lt;/em&gt;.\n\nThis program is curate
 d and moderated by Renee Tajima-Pe&amp;ntilde\;a\, an Oscar-nominated filmmake
 r and professor of Asian American Studies at UCLA. Kaneko and Tokeshi will
  be present for a panel discussion and Q&amp;amp\;A led by Tajima-Pe&amp;ntilde\;a
