"Make art not war" is Jimmy Mirikitani's motto. This 85-year-old Japanese American artist was born in Sacramento and raised in Hiroshima, but by 2001 he is living on the streets of New York with the twin towers of the World Trade Center still ominously anchoring the horizon behind him. What begins as a simple verite portrait of one homeless man becomes a rare documentary of daily life in New York in the months leading up to 9/11. Discussion with the filmmaker Linda Hattendorf to follow.
