Jimmy Mirikitani understands he is an artist. And only an artist. Like Mr. Mirikitani who overcomes great obstacles in his life, filmmaker Linda Hattendorf perseveres at her art to help Mr Mirikitani face his past. Both sensitive artists who capture the world around them. You can see Ms. Hattendorf’s film, The Cats of Mirikitani on Independent Lens and Mr. Mirikitani’s art work at pbs and at this site.
Both are a must see.
