Join us for an epic journey of adventure and compassion!
On Tuesday, October 22, Cinema 21 will hold a special screening of the award-winning documentary, We Are All In This Together, which follows Daniel Troia’s bicycle journey across America with no food, no money, and in search of human connection.
Equipped with hidden camera glasses and a cardboard sign that says, “Ran out of food. Anything helps," Daniel listens to stories from the people who help him and learns that those who have faced the most adversity in their lives, often have the most to give.
Over the course of 7 months, Daniel encounters many different experiences like trying to outrun a tornado in Kansas, running out of water in the desert, nearly avoiding hypothermia in Montana, and crossing the Sierras, Rockies and Appalachian Mountain ranges.
This deeply captivating story, with soundtrack provided by Portland’s indie rock band, Portugal. The Man, has received 19 awards at different film festivals across the world including, “Best Humanitarian Film” at the San Francisco International Film Awards and “Best Inspirational Film” at the New York International Film Awards.
“The division in our world has been so intense, and issues around homelessness and food insecurity are so complex,” Troia says, “but the people I met showed me that the one thing we can control is how we treat each other. Every single day, we have the opportunity to show up for someone who needs help. On an individual level, this is where change really begins.”
50% of all ticket sales will be donated to the Rose Haven shelter in Portland, which is a day shelter and community center serving women, children and gender non-conforming folks experiencing the trauma of abuse, loss of home and other disruptive life challenges. Daniel Troia will also be in attendance and holding a Q and A after the event.
