In honor of Disneyland’s 60th Anniversary, we’re thrilled to share a short film drawn from the from the home movie collection of the Edmund D. Jung family and their visit to Disneyland in 1956, the year the theme park opened, and from another trip in 1958.
“Because of the organic, unscripted nature of home movies and their ability to capture everyday moments or important occasions in that Asian American family, the widespread distribution of these films allows these images and their personal stories to be normalized.”
Pamela Jean Vadakan, coordinator of the California Audiovisual Preservation Project, explains why she supports CAAM’s Memories to Light campaign.
