THE ELLEN THEATRE

BFS welcomes Co-Director Justin Taylor Smith to the Ellen Theatre stage following this special screening.

In "A SONG FILM BY KISHI BASHI: OMOIYARI", internationally acclaimed composer and songwriter K Ishibashi (professionally know as "Kishi Bashi") embarks on a personal quest by creating his music in locations relevant to the Japanese American Incarceration during WWII. It is on this journey in which Kishi Bashi comes to terms with his own identity and uncovers a myriad of social issues that have gripping modern relevance. OMOIYARI is a genre-breaking, artistic exploration that fuses history, music, and the complexities of the human condition. Directed by Kishi Bashi and Justin Taylor Smith. 88 min.

"A STUNNING DOCUMENTARY ABOUT KISHI BASHI'S OWN PERSONAL JOURNEY IN EXPLORING HIS PAST AS HE LOOKS FOR INSPIRATION FOR HIS LATEST MUSICAL PROJECT." THE AU REVIEW
