Arirang (2002)
Directed by Tom Coffman1h 50m
Arirang is a compelling and moving two-part documentary beginning with the journey of more than 7,000 Koreans from their homeland to new lives on the sugar plantations of Hawaii, and continuing with the dramatic renewal of migration to America as a result of the Korean War and subsequent changes in U.S. immigration law. Producer Tom Coffman has created a dramatic documentary that covers the background of political forces in Korea that drove immigrants overseas, their arrival in Hawaii 100 years ago, and the work by political leaders in exile to restore sovereignty.
