A surprise discovery of her late Nisei grandmother’s hidden love letters sends a young woman on a quest to uncover the secrets of her family buried (both figuratively and literally) under decades of silence and trauma. Paul Daisuke Goodman’s No-No Girl is a humorous and heartfelt comedy that explores how the scars of the incarceration of Japanese Americans in WW2 are passed down through the generations, and a family’s struggle to reclaim and confront their shared trauma.
