“El México mas Cercano a Japón”
(The Closest Point in Mexico to Japan)
Directed/Produced by Shinpei Takeda

Please join us for this important documentary about the historical and contemporary economic and cultural connections between Japan and Tijuana. This 50 minute video reveals the rather unknown history of the Japanese community in Tijuana that has existed since the 1920’s. Mr. Takeda weaves the images taken by the first Japanese photographer of Tijuana in the 1920s with testimonials spanning three generations. He also highlights the plight of the Japanese community during World War II.
