About this Event

“Eighty-year-old Jimmy Tsutomu Mirikitani survived the trauma of WWII internment camps, Hiroshima, and homelessness by creating art. But when 9/11 threatens his life on the New York City streets and a local filmmaker brings him to her home, the two embark on a journey to confront Jimmy’s painful past. An intimate exploration of the lingering wounds of war and the healing power of friendship and art”… Multiple award winning film including the Audience Award at the Tribeca Film Festival. – Criterion Pictures

We welcome artists, the NPCC community, film buffs and film students from all over the city to come and enjoy these community screening. The collection of films selected for Arthouse Cinema at NPCC have been chosen to offer a source of inspiration, conversation, and connection, and to bring certain artistic elements to light and screen that may speak to artists looking for a creative spark.

Admission is free with a suggested small pay-what-you-can donation of $10.00. Complementary beer tastings will be available with thanks to our generous sponsor Great Lakes Brewery and snacks will be available for purchase. No outside food or drinks permitted. Enjoy responsibly.
