It shows the mountain ranges behind where Oda’s parents and Okazaki’s father were imprisoned during World War II. Okazaki stands before Heart Mountain and Oda stands in front of the mountain range at Tule Lake.
Okazaki and Oda were classmates at Venice High School. where they were voted “Most Artistic” by their graduating class. He went on to become a four-time Oscar nominee and one-time Oscar winner, among many other awards.

Okazaki is known for his raw, cinéma vérité-style documentaries that frequently show ordinary people dealing with extraordinary circumstances, including survivors of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. He has received a Peabody Award and a Primetime Emmy in addition to the Academy Award, which he won for “Days of Waiting: The Life and Art of Estelle Ishigo.” Ishigo was a Caucasian artist who accompanied her Japanese American husband to Heart Mountain and documented the camp experience.
