Looking For Video on Asayo Murakami

Asayo Murakami tending her garden.
I'm hoping you can help me find a video made about a local woman from Steveston. Her granddaughter wrote and produced it, another granddaughter starred as her own grandmother, and I believe it was called 'Oma's Garden'. The woman came over as a young woman from China (maybe Japan), worked in the cannery to pay her passage, and settled down with a local man of the same descent. They had a home close to the cannery, which I believe is now a heritage building. I'd love to get a copy of this beautiful story and appreciate any help you can give me.Reply: Thank you for asking. There's more on Mrs. Murakami and the video here. Enjoy, Dave Davis
