What is the plot of I’m A Virgo?
The protagonist of I’m A Virgo is Cootie, a young man portrayed by Jharrel Jerome. Cootie is a very typical guy in most respects; he’s positive, sociable, and constantly seeking experience because, as he says, “Virgos love adventure.” Cootie is 13 feet tall, which sets him apart significantly from anyone in his immediate environment.
His family feels compelled to protect him from the outside world and anyone who might try to take advantage of him as a result. That, of course, cannot continue indefinitely, and Cootie finally departs from his house to discover Oakland, California, in its entirety. When describing Cootie in I’m a Virgo, Boots Riley said that while most people see “a giant Black man” in Cootie, the fact that he is a Virgo is what matters most to him.
