Ten Japanese internment camps were in operation on American soil during World War II. One of them, Topaz, was located sixteen miles outside of Delta, Utah. How could such a thing happen? In a post-9/11 world, could it happen again? BLOCK 8 centers on Ken (Bryan Kido), a young Nisei internee at Topaz, who is grappling with whether or not to enlist in the military to prove his loyalty as a U.S. citizen. He begins a tentative friendship with Ada (Anita Booher), a librarian working at the camp whose son is fighting in the Pacific. Plan-B's hope in creating and producing BLOCK 8 is to explore the passive racism that allowed the internment to happen while preserving this little-discussed piece of Utah history.
