These Storied Streets explores homelessness across America by telling the stories of those who live it every day. The full-length documentary film—slated for completion later this year—profiles the homeless and the formerly homeless as well as the volunteers and organizations working to get people off the streets. Their stories are real, raw and compelling.
“The more people we talk to who know homelessness first hand—families, veterans, young adults—the more I realize that they live lives very similar to mine and yours. When I hear how they have come to find themselves homeless, I know we could all be just a few missteps away from finding ourselves in the same situation. And as they struggle to get out, the rest of society sees them as a nuisance or an eyesore — if they even see them at all.
"Then there are these incredible stories of those who have committed their lives to fighting homelessness. These stories, coupled with the fact that right now homelessness is growing at an unprecedented rate in America, is the genesis behind These Storied Streets. The film will provide a window into their struggles, question stereotypes and change the way you feel about homelessness.” — Thomas Morgan, Producer
