Under The Blood-Red Sun by Tim Savage - Movies

Adapted from the award-winning young-adult book by Graham Salisbury. December 7, 1941 - Tomi Nakaji and his best friend Billy Davis are playing baseball in a field near their homes in Hawaii when Japan launches a surprise attack on the US at Pearl Harbor. As Tomi looks up at the sky and recognizes the Blood-Red Sun emblem on the fighter planes, he knows that his life has changed forever. Torn between his love of all things American and the traditional ways of his parents and Grampa, Tomi feels frightened and ashamed of his native land. Tomi’s friendship with Billy is soon tested as prejudice divides their island community. He must find the courage to stand up to neighborhood bully, Keet Wilson, while protecting his family’s honor and its katana, a centuries-old samurai sword. He is then forced to become the man of the family to care for his mother and sister Kimi after his father is arrested and taken away to an internment camp. Based on actual events, Under the Blood-Red Sun is an unforgettable story of friendship, courage & survival.
