non judgmental look at homeless and mental illness
11 June 2018 | by michaelmangia – See all my reviews

So many people who are homeless or live on the streets have stories to tell and it makes me so happy someone put their creative efforts into telling a story so a wide audience could see it. This film is amazing and very inspiring.
