This film opens a discussion between volunteers that organized the Missoula avalanche cleanup efforts and other community members and asks the question what can every person do to enrich their own lives through promoting kindness. We hope to capture on film the amazing effects of love and kindness both big (like what we saw here at the Missoula avalanche) and smaller (like buying someone a cup of coffee) and how that can change lives and motivate others to pass it on and how that can have a ripple effect through our community and the world.

Many laws the have been written need to be revisited and take into consideration the current economy, jailing fathers,revoking drivers licenses, is not a solution instead it promotes the separation of fathers and children.
