FILM AND IMPACT CAMPAIGN
BEYOND THE BRIDGE is an ambitious documentary film about solutions to homelessness.
A Bigger Vision Films team traveled over 40,000 miles around the US to answer this question: How can this country solve homelessness in a comprehensive way?
The answer surprised us with its simplicity, as two large cities proved that solving homelessness is within reach of any community.
We are planning an ambitious impact campaign around the key issues in this film, including a 40-city screening tour with post-screening panels and Q&As, as well as actionable calls-to-action and follow-up activities for audience and community members.
The campaign will be focused on changing the national discourse on solutions to homelessness, addressing the upstream causes of homelessness, and addressing the downstream via housing and robust supportive services in combination.
We invite you to join the movement by signing up to our mailing list and supporting the campaign.

“As a communications professional working on homelessness, I’ve seen several documentaries about this issue, and this is the one I’ve been waiting for! Bravo.”
“This film is not only a solution, but has a surprising solution because it is not only about people who are homeless themselves, but about how every member of the community can get involved in solving this issue. It’s something you should see.”
“All mayors, governors, US leaders should be required to watch this film and get proper REAL education before being allowed to make decisions on how funds are spent.”

BEHIND-THE-SCENES STORIES
First Screening in Atlanta
Our first screening in Atlanta is over and we couldn't have hoped for a better impact campaign launch. More than 500 people came to see the film and the response was overwhelmingly encouraging that this film...
Beyond The Bridge: A Solution To Homelessness is finally ready!
At long last, after a year of editing, we are happy to announce that our film BEYOND THE BRIDGE: A Solution To Homelessness is (almost) ready! But first, the big question: when and where can you see the film?
Behind-the-scenes Ep7: Houston, working the problem
We recently visited Houston. For years we've heard great things about how Houston addresses homelessness and we needed to see for ourselves. This episode is about how they do it.
Behind-the-scenes Ep6: Will Los Angeles solve its homelessness crisis?
When you glance at L.A. - the epicenter of unsheltered homelessness in the United States - you'd think no one is doing anything to address the homelessness crisis there. When you dig below the surface, things get complicated.
Behind-the-scenes Ep5: Housing First Partners Conference
We recently visited Seattle, where we spent a few days filming and participating in the Housing First Partners Conference. In this episode, we share with you that experience.
