Amy Flowers Umble recently wrote about a documentary by Chad Amour that explores poverty, hunger, debt and kindness:
The 40-minute film covers some weighty topics: AIDS orphans, poverty, hunger and the debt carried by poor countries.
Miller said he tried to make the music hopeful as a counterpoint.
For instance, one song says, “I’ve got news for you. The harvest comes for everyone. It won’t be long ’til everything is all right.”
Amour and Miller hope area churches and community groups will show the film and hold discussions about charity.
Miller said the documentary should make people think about “not just how we react to needs thousands of miles away but also how we offer support and love to our neighbors, our co-workers and our friends.”
I have not seen the documentary, but I want to, because it seems that the director has used his personal experience to make a powerful film about important issues afflicting our world.
