Lost And Found: Jim Lee

The life story of an English hobo, as told in split screens and with subtitles.

Born in a field in Kent in 1936, Jim has no memory of his mother and father. He lived in care homes, drifted, worked, was called "village idiot, beast, bastard." Now he has throat cancer.

He's not bitter. He wishes he were never born.

Luke Seomore and Joseph Bull turn this ordinary life into an artwork. Who's exploiting whom? Jim Lee, poor fellow, has little to say for himself, being ill. For 15 minutes, he is important.

I hope he feels better now.
