Families transfer from assembly centers to permanent camps in remote deserts, where they transform barren land into thriving gardens and farms at Minidoka, Idaho. A loyalty questionnaire forces impossible choices as Fred Korematsu challenges his conviction before the Supreme Court. Mitsuye Endo's case succeeds in proving loyal citizens cannot be held indefinitely, and the camps begin closing.
