Director's Note

Suffering is a basic matter of living, and one of the most common human responses is ignorance, or avoidance, which of course can perpetuate and amplify suffering. I joined this project because it was an opportunity to render the suffering of homelessness more accessible and relatable. By feeling into the daily plights, joys and doldrums of those experiencing homelessness, perhaps their lives and experiences will be harder to neglect. My desire is that as the perceived distance between audiences and characters wanes, compassion and compassionate action will grow.
