Motel Drive

Excellent film portraying the plight of families and individuals struggling with housing, addiction, and financial insecurity.

I was lucky enough to attend a screening in Tucson which hosted a panel afterwards which included state and local experts on housing issues, as well as the director himself. The film brought about thought provoking Q & A, and it was clear that the audience enjoyed the captivating documentary.

Motel Drive itself is a sad part of the American story, but the film was shot in a way that still found the beauty surrounding it, with glimpses of sunrises, interesting perspectives and angles, and the humanity in people that are often overlooked.
