Mr. Okra has been traversing New Orleans and selling produce in his colorful truck for decades, so it’s hard to imagine condensing his story into a single minute. Yet that’s exactly what a group called 60 Second Docs has attempted to do with their newest installment, which provides a quick glimpse into the life of a bonafide New Orleans icon.

FYI – the Mr. Okra In Your Pocket toy that appears in this documentary can be purchased in our online store.
