A documentary film about the Japanese balloon bombs During WWII and the unlikely connections they created between people
In 1945, a Japanese balloon bomb claimed the lives of the only people killed on the continental U.S. as the result of enemy action during WWII. Forty years later, the decision to fold a thousand paper cranes would unite the Japanese and American civilians who were invloved in and affected by this incident.
This film is a sponsored project of Film Action Oregon, and has been funded in part with assistance from the Oregon Heritage Commission, Heritage Conservation Division, Oregon Parks and Recreation Departmen, The Oregon Council for the Humanities, and the Regional Arts and Culture Council.
