Homelessness Movie 'Time Out of Mind' Opens in Limited Release
With the film "Time out of Mind" opening in limited released, yesterday in New York City and in other cities on Friday, Sept. 11, we at the Alliance believe it has the potential to serve as a valuable awareness and engagement tool. For those interested in arranging group viewings or private screenings when the film is released for streaming On Demand (Sept. 18), we have put together a brief guide to encourage thoughtful discussion about the film's take on chronic homelessness.
