Jim Jarmusch / France, SRN, USA 1999 / 116 min. / 15 years / DCP
We learn very little about Jim Jarmusch’s main character. Ghost Dog lives in a wooden shed on the roof of an abandoned building with his pigeons that are his only connection to the world. He follows the ancient Japanese principle of “the way of the samurai” and makes his living as a hitman for the mafia.
