“She gave up marriage, braved the burning embers of post-WWII Tokyo to teach judo, traveled around the world to spread judo and faced decades of gender discrimination within judo’s ranking system” 
-Intersection 

“Keiko Fukuda’s life story...is a very inspiring one that can provide many important lessons to students in the United States. The film lends itself well to teaching about not only the traditional art of judo...but also concepts like empowerment, immigration, the transmission of culture, equity, and ethnic community. I highly recommend this film for use in U.S. high schools and colleges.” 
-Gary Mukai, Director, 

Stanford Program on International and Cross-Cultural Education, Stanford University

“Fukuda’s legacy made the sport a much more egalitarian playing field for men and women.” 
-Dig Boston 

GENRE: Documentary, PBS, Sports, Fitness, Gender Studies, Asian Studies
