"A video essay on the paradoxes of race and the ironies of war, LOOKING LIKE THE ENEMY is a bold and daring exploration into the often horrifying predicaments faced by the Asian American soldiers who fought in WWII, and the Korean and Vietnam Wars. Breaking a legacy of silence, 18 veterans share tears, laughter and gut-wrenching experiences that help fill in the gaps that official history has often left out."
