SUMMARY:Just Getting By Film Screening
DESCRIPTION:Bess O’Brien’s new documentary film\, “Just Getting By\,” is a sweeping yet intimate look at the lives of Vermonters struggling with food and housing insecurity. \nVermont has the second-highest rate of homeless people in the United States\, right after California. One-third of Vermonters struggle to put food on the table. These are significant issues for a small state. Just Getting By focuses on these issues in the lives of everyday people. \nThe film tells the stories of working families\, the unhoused who access food shelves and soup kitchens\, people living in the temporary hotel/motel program\, New Americans grappling with the cost of living in America\, Native people creating innovative farming practices\, and folks on the ground providing services to their fellow Vermonters in need. \n“Just Getting By” is a Kingdom County Productions film that explores the challenges and incredible resiliency that low-income Vermonters experience daily. This presentation is part of Whiting Library’s Vermont Reads schedule of events. This is the 22nd year of Vermont Reads. This year\, our state is reading the book “Gather” by Kenneth Cadow\, which explores themes of rural life\, resilience\, class differences\, addiction and recovery\, housing and food insecurity\, a deep relationship to the land\, and the power of community.
