We are thrilled to present a screening of ? “Between Pictures: The Lens of Tamio Wakayama” at the Firehall Arts Centre as part of this year’s Powell Street Festival on Saturday, August 3 at 12:00pm. Start off your festival in the air-conditioned Firehall Theatre (Firehall Arts Centre) with this free screening of the new film directed by Vancouver-based filmmaker and visual artist Cindy Mochizuki.
Between Pictures: The Lens of Tamio Wakayama, tells the epic journey of the late Japanese Canadian photographer Wakayama who decides to join the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) in the deep south during the 1960’s American civil rights movement. Learning the art of dark room photography along the way, this transformative journey allows him to confront his own identity and to return ‘home’ to the west coast of Canada to begin a body of photographic work that continues to document, celebrate, and represent the spirit of Japanese Canadians who resided in the former Paueru Gai/Powell Street neighborhoods.
