KIM'S VIDEO

Kim’s Video used to be New York’s finest video store – maybe the finest in all the world. Among the cinephile regulars from all over the globe frequenting this place were Jim Jarmusch and the Coen brothers. When Kim’s Video closed down in 2008, it was the mayor of a small Sicilian town, of all people, who saved its collection and kept it open to the public. But what happened next? Former Kim’s customers David Redmon and Ashley Sabin investigated in Sicily – and found a story that is actually stranger than fiction.
