Collingwood’s homelessness issue to grace the silver screen
Posted on August 7, 2019 in News
The Youth of Collingwood present a weekend of youth films and entertainment.
Join us for our double-feature presentation of Failing With Flying Colours – a youth short film – and No Home in Sight – a documentary about youth homelessness in Collingwood and the surrounding area, both directed by John Cardillo Jr.
Based on a 2018 enumeration, there are 697 people across Simcoe County are homeless… 197 of them are under the age of 17.
Failing With Flying Colours is a glimpse at the life of Roddy, a homeless youth, as he is homeless in Collingwood. Our team talks with youth in No Home in Sight as they share their stories and they provide an in-depth look at the everyday struggles of at-risk and homeless youth in our community.
