When you feel like a queen, even a humble laundromat can become a palace. Marie "Mimi" Haist, a woman who defied her adulterous husband and moved onto the streets in her 50s, found her "home" in a Californian laundromat. Encouraged to stay by a generous laundry owner, Mimi's 'the past is the past' philosophy won her over the hearts of regular customers, including local loves and Hollywood stars. After 20 years, Mimi has made unlikely friends and reminds us to never give up, even when life seems rough.
