At the end of World War II, Jimmy Picard (Academy Award®*-winner Benicio Del Toro), a Native American Blackfoot, is admitted to a military hospital. Suffering from headaches, dizzy spells, hearing loss and bizarre dreams, Jimmy’s unusual symptoms classify him as schizophrenic by the confused medical staff. Enter French anthropologist and Native American researcher Georges Devereux (Mathieu Amalric, The Diving Bell and the Butterfly), who helps Jimmy navigate the labyrinth of his troubled memories and visions, leading to a compelling and surprising friendship. Featuring “one of the most unexpected and inspiring movie pairings in recent memory” (The Village Voice), JIMMY P is an intelligent and extraordinarily moving film from the director of A Christmas Tale.
