Messenger Synopsis
Take a ride with Kamikaze, New York City's most legendary bike messenger and world class character. Be part of the action and learn the street wisdom he's gleaned about work, women and the meaning of life from his 25 years on NYC's streets.
He's seen it all including 911. The film, which was shot in various locations throughout New York City shows Kami on his daily rounds making deliveries, and philosophizing about life as a messenger and other subjects.
The film shows the hardcore side of Kami, riding like a bat out of hell up 6th Avenue, as well as a kinder more gentle Kamikaze at home. At the end of the film, Kami let's us all in on the meaning of life.
