Kim’s Video

About the movie

The most legendary video store on the planet was called Kim’s Video and was located in downtown New York. When the shop closed, its enigmatic owner, Yongman Kim, announced that he was ready to donate his 55,000-plus rare videotapes to a new owner as long as the collection remained intact. Cut to a Sicilian village full of larger-than-life characters headed by a mayor who would do anything to get a bit of attention. Like, say, opening a Kim’s Video Museum! But once the video collection was shipped to Sicily, no more was heard of them. That’s about the first chapter of a film in which director (and ex-Kim’s Video member) David Redmon goes on a gonzo journalistic road trip to Sicily to track down the mythological video collection – and plan a heist to save it.
