Description:
This documentary follows Jimmy Mirikitani, a spirited street painter known for his red beret, who lives and works near the World Trade Center. His life is profoundly impacted by the 9/11 attacks that devastate his neighborhood. A film editor named Linda Hattendorf convinces the elderly Jimmy to live with her while she helps him find a permanent home. Linda explores Jimmy's distinctive background – born in California and raised in Japan – which shaped his resilient character and artistic focus on cats and Japanese internment camps. The film documents Jimmy's extraordinary life story.
