Their love affair spans a vast ocean of time and space. But they cannot escape the brutal reality of their forced separation during World War II. When Aya was imprisoned in the Japanese Internment Camps, Ed risked his life to capture photographs of war-ravaged Europe. Over the course of a tumultuous affair, they unite in their crusade to report the truth about the war-torn world. A play that re-examines what it means to be an American through the lens of the country’s not-so-distant past.
