Ben Saunders and Joey Schihl on Blank Street

Filmmakers Ben Saunders and Joey Schihl talk with Sean McCord about Blank Street, their documentary which connects real people to honest examples of poverty that can seem distant to many of us, although very present in our own backyard in Virginia. The film, which screens at Vinegar Hill at 10:45 am on Saturday, suggests that anyone can fall victim to poverty but also that anyone can and should feel compelled to help.
