Screening of The Homestretch
Sunday, June 2nd, 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.
A free screening of The Homestretch, a documentary film that follows three homeless teens as they fight to stay in school, graduate, and build a future, will take place at The Church of the Holy Apostles on Sunday, June 2nd, at 5:00 p.m. Everyone is welcome to attend.
Through haunting images, intimate scenes, and first-person narratives, these teens take the audience on their journeys of struggle and triumph. As their stories unfold, the film connects viewers deeply with larger issues of poverty, race, juvenile justice, immigration, foster care, and LGBTQ rights. The film provides a powerful, original perspective on what it means to be young, homeless, and building a future in America today.
A discussion with the filmmaker (and parishioner) Kirsten Kelly will follow the screening.
The Homestretch has not been rated. It runs for 1 hour and 30 minutes.
