A preview clip from an interesting-looking documentary called From a Silk Cocoon:

Labeled as “disloyal” and deemed “enemy aliens dangerous to the public peace and safety of the United States,” a young Japanese American couple, held in separate American prison camps during WW II, struggles to prove their innocence and fight deportation. With the discovery of their actual letters, diaries, and haiku poetry, their story tells of the frightening and tragic outcome resulting from wartime hysteria and racial profiling. A story of love and survival, Shizuko and Itaru, renounce their American citizenship in protest and then must face the reality of raising their children in war-torn Japan.
