SUMMARY:Stories of Us: Camp Second Chance
DESCRIPTION:MMT is pleased to co-present a screening of Stories of Us: Camp
  Second Chance\, complimented by a  moving musical performance and meanin
 gful discussion with the filmmaker\, and community guests.\n\nIn this powe
 rful film\, director Melinda Raebyne embeds herself one winter at one of S
 eattle’s homeless camps\, Camp Second Chance\, challenging public ignora
 nce and humanizing a population that locals would rather neglect\, sharing
  with you some of their personal stories and her actual experience of what
  it’s like to be homeless. By putting faces to the statistics and a voic
 e to their stories\, she humanizes a population in ways that allow viewers
  to see themselves and better relate to a neglected and often “forgotten
  population.”\n\nWhat’s possible when society’s “forgotten populat
 ion” decides to beat the odds and instead of putting hope into a broken 
 system invest their hopes in each other\, using the pains of their past to
  be the fuel that drives them to create a better tomorrow. Camp Second Cha
 nce is an encampment founded by the homeless to foster an environment that
  allows them to become productive people in society. “Stories of Us” i
 s their stories and ours\, one of triumph\, showing us that the power lies
  within our own willpower not to just survive but to thrive.\n\n“Stories
  of Us” was awarded the Turner Legacy Award by Meaningful Movies Project
  in 2020 and the Audience Choice Award at the Tacoma Film Festival.\n\nYou
