>>> an old woman approached Duignan and said, “That’s not a movie, that’s a weapon against suicide.” <<< It's amazing what a compelling movie can do. It's a delicate act, but when done correctly it encourages people to use their compassion and empathy as weapons for a cause. We're so attuned to human faces and voices that movies directly and emotionally engage us in ways that are far beyond mere paper. My friend attempted to do something like this with homelessness. He actually found a camera, went out there, and just tried to talk to homeless people and helped them to get off the streets while chronicling their journey. Although it sounds simple and, well, uninteresting, what he captured on film ended up being a fascinating, compassionate look into this complex world. I really recommend it; https://itunes.apple.com/us/movie/but-for-the-grace-of-god/id469930988 https://itunes.apple.com/us/movie/but-for-the-grace-of-god/i...
