Jiro Onuma liked fine clothing and muscular men. How did this dandyish gay bachelor survive the isolation, humiliation and homophobia of the Japanese American Internment Camps during World War II? This musical mash-up video features drag king performance, U.S. propaganda footage, muscle building, and homoerotic bread making.
