Thank you to the International Documentary Association for selecting our “Craft of Speed” MOONEYES Documentary as their IDA-Supported Doc of the Week, in celebration of Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month! In “Craft of Speed,” we document the important work of Shige Suganuma and Chico Kodama, two Japanese/Japanese American hot rodders and speed industry leaders, in preserving the legacy of Dean Moon, a legendary hot rodder and speed equipment pioneer. We also show how they battled against racism and xenophobia in their impassioned work. Representation matters. Hopefully, stories about this subject can help combat the rise of racism and violence against not only Asians and Asian Americans but all races. The IDA is the respected fiscal sponsor of our film as well as our previous feature documentary, “Visions of Warriors.” We’ve had the honor of working with them for a long time. We appreciate their continuing support of our work.
