About this Event
Diamond Diplomacy explores 150+ years of shared history between the United States and Japan through our shared love of baseball. Anchored by the stories of two former players—Japan’s Masanori “Mashi” Murakami and the USA’s Warren Cromartie—the film traces the evolution of a complex international relationship, touching on racism, diplomacy, and the unifying power of sports.
The screening will be followed by a special talk with director Yuriko Gamo Romer and executive producer Glen S. Fukushima, moderated by Stave Pollock, President of the Japan Society of Northern California, followed by an audience Q&A.
NR, 86 mins., 2025.
