DESCRIPTION:Community Leaders, Activists, Journalists, Educators, and Concerned 
 Citizens,\n\nThis is a benefit showing of “Quest”, the Award Winning 
 Indie Film, followed by a Q&A Session and Panel Discussion hosted by the 
 Coalition on Homelessness. Proceeds benefit the Coalition on 
 Homelessness.\n\n“Exactly the kind of film that needs to be shown all 
 over the country.”\n- Claudia Puig, President of LA Film Critic 
 Association\n\nWhy: “Quest” inspires individual and community growth, 
 connection and collaboration for healing and positive change. In an ideal 
 world, all children would have the opportunity to grow up safe and secure 
 and loved in their families of origin. But the sad truth is, we don’t 
 live in an ideal world, and no one person or program can ever close the 
 awful gap - but together we can find ways to put our compassion into action 
 to make a difference and help heal our own lives, and the lives of 
 others.\n\nQUEST – the Truth Always Rises, is a magnanimous love story 
 highlighting our need for healing and empathy told from a 12 year old in 
 crisis, addicted to tagging and losing faith in humanity. “Mills” 
 spends his time on the street with older graffiti mentor “Debt” 
 (Lakeith Stanfield – Atlanta/Sorry to Bother You/Get Out), escaping an 
 abusive step-father (Lou Diamond Phillips) and a mom (Betsy Brandt – 
 Breaking Bad) who doesn’t believe him. On a path to expulsion, his coach 
 and history teacher, Tim Moellering (Dash Mihok – Ray Donovan), sees what 
 the rest cannot yet, that his recklessness is a cry for help. As much as 
 Mills pulls away, he finds himself compelled to try to trust, just one more 
 time.\nQuest has won audience awards, moved adult inmates to tears, shifted 
 Juvenile Detention Centers to remove locks from their doors, and still 
 looking for distribution. It challenges us to face our fears and regain 
 faith in humanity through Trusting our Struggle and Sharing. \n\nMore at
