Overview

Abraham Rabinowitz is a retired tailor who shares his small apartment with his cat, Isaac. Theirs is a special relationship of love and respect. Likewise, Abraham's relationship with his neighbors is one of love and respect. He helps poor Mrs. Guterrez who lives across the hall by running errands for her since she can no longer easily climb the three flights to their floor with her walker. He tutors Mrs. Marino's grandson in chess and picks up her newspaper when he goes to the market. He reads to the children at Meisler's Book Store on the last Friday of each month. Abraham lives his life according to his late wife's philosophy: If a person won't help another person what's the sense in being one?
