Synopsis
Generations of artists call Robert A. Nakamura "The Godfather of Asian American film," but his son, Tad, calls him Dad. As the filmmaking son of a filmmaking legend, Tad uses the lessons his dad taught him to decipher the legacy of an aging man who was a child survivor of the WWII incarceration of Japanese Americans, a successful photographer who gave it up to tell his own story, an activist at the dawn of a social movement--and a father whose struggles have won his son freedoms that eluded Japanese Americans of his generation. As Parkinson's Disease clouds his memory, Tad sets out to retrieve his story--and in the process discovers his own. The two have made films together, with Robert always by Tad's side. THIRD ACT is most likely the last.
