Cast: [Looking for Jiro] Tina Takemoto; [Warning shot] Sam Takemoto.Summary: The Queer camp trilogy is a series of experimental films exploring the hidden dimensions of queer Japanese American wartime history, inspired by first-generation Japanese Americans who were incarcerated by the US government during World War II. Looking for Jiro: inspired by Jiro Onuma, a gay Issei (immigrant) who was imprisoned at Topaz concentration camp in central Utah. Warning shot: One death. Three versions of the crime. James H. Wakasa, a 63-year-old Japanese American bachelor, was shot to death by military police at Topaz concentration camp during World War II. Was it justifiable homicide, an accidental fatality, or second-degree murder? On the line: inspired by Isa Shimoda, a butch gender nonconforming immigrant who served meals to Japanese American tuna cannery workers in her restaurant on the docks of San Diego in the 1930s.
