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 Ep6: Will Los Angeles solve its homelessness crisis?
