Directed by Zen Pace, this PSA for the Arizona Department of Education delivers a simple but impactful message.
It follows a mother who is trying and failing to find shelter wracked with a further worry as her daughter’s school informs her that without proof of residency they cannot let her talented child continue learning there.
It is based on the shameful statistic that one in four homeless children live under the threat of being forced out of education – a result of policies that have made fear and instability part of daily life, leaving thousands of children's schooling anything but certain.
