This film is incredibly powerful, linking the aftermath of WWII and the more recent September 11 attacks. We see the consequences of war by hearing and viewing the stories of the past that haunt self-taught artist Jimmy Mirikitani. He is beyond hope, bitter, full of hate, and finds comfort only in his art. That is, until someone helps him recover his life. His struggle is one we all should learn from.
