This documentary film programme delves into how collective resilience and compassion can inspire change, whether through forgiveness, companionship, and the preservation of identity. The community holds the power of collective resilience. In different parts of the world communities come together to uplift youth, while the residents of a suburb of Chicago find themselves rallying to a beloved community figure. The human connection may be forged through the companionship in illness or while seeking sanctuary. There are also the ones who seek their identity through heritage and tradition in a modern world. We are also given the opportunity to observe a growing sports community and the secret life of a Berlin metro driver in a concrete jungle. Some of our characters have found their communities, while others are still searching, to continue to heal and grow.
