Belonging in the USA:
Stories from our Neighbors
If you exist, you belong. Period.
An award-winning series of documentaries that uplift, inspire, and connect us to what is human within us all through the life stories of freedom fighters.
Filmed throughout the United States, the Belonging Series features individuals and families courageously and vulnerably sharing their life stories to remind us what it means to be human and how essential our sense of connection and interdependence are for our collective survival.
Our films inspire a new vision for humanity,
where interdependence, self-reflection, revolutionary listening and empathy are what define us.
