Watching her father's annual preparations for the Remembrance Day Parade, director Jari Osborne always found him "sweet, but vainly sentimental". Then she discovered the details of his struggle to be permitted to fight for his country during World War II and his role as a special operations executive commando. She also uncovered the disturbing legacy of state-sanctioned racism suffered by Chinese-Canadians in a country that now prides itself on cultural diversity. Unwanted Soldiers is an eye-opening look at the treatment of Chinese-Canadians during the Second World War. It's a story of humble beginnings and a truly remarkable conclusion, a little known story of personal and public war - and heroic victory.
