The Homestretch background

The Homestretch

Against the backdrop of Chicago's unforgiving winter and the challenges of high school, three teenagers discover the strength to forge a brighter future for themselves.

Three homeless teenagers, Kasey, Anthony, and Roque, fight to stay in school, graduate, and build a future despite facing trauma and abandonment. The film takes viewers on their journeys of struggle and triumph, challenging stereotypes of homelessness and connecting larger policy issues such as juvenile justice, immigration, foster care, and LGBTQIA rights.
