Calvin's Story

2016 Film 4 Min 26 Sec

Calvin’s Story is a micro-documentary about Calvin Curtiss, one of the countless youths surviving homeless in Chicago and across the nation. In his own words, he tells the story of how he came to experience homelessness, his daily activities, and his dream of becoming a massage therapist, painting a true picture of a street-based youth through his own narrative. This project was originally tied to a GoFundMe account to help Calvin attend massage therapy school and live out his dream.
