【エッチ な 映画 館】'Manzanar, Diverted' to Be Shown at UCLA

The award-winning documentary “Manzanar, Diverted: When Water Becomes Dust” will be screened on Monday, Feb. 13, from 6 to 9 p.m. at UCLA’s James Bridge Theater, 1409 Melnitz Hall, 235 Charles E. Young Dr. East, Los Angeles.
At the foot of the majestic, snow-capped Sierras, Manzanar, the World War II concentration camp, becomes the confluence for memories of Payauunadii, the now-parched “l(fā)and of flowing water.” Intergenerational women from Native American, Japanese American and rancher communities form an alliance to defend their land and water from Los Angeles.
Speakers: Ann Kaneko, director/producer, “Manzanar, Diverted”; Teri Red Owl, executive director, Owens Valley Indian Water Commission; Sally Manning, environmental director, Big Pine Paiute Tribe Owens Valley; Annie Mendoza, Tongva water protector, UCLA Urban Planning Ph.D. student.
