Director’s Statement
Following my experience, which had a hand in forming who I am today, I feel that I have a responsibility to speak up for young boys and men around the world — to show that these traits are indeed perfectly normal for any human being to hold and that it should be socially acceptable for boys and men to express them.
JIMMY is a story about a little boy and a traumatic childhood experience that impacts him more than he could ever predict.
