Sprinkled in are officials' comments but this is mostly the unhoused's story to tell and that's a smart decision.

Lead Me Home is the best demonstration of how inhumane the treatment of America’s homeless population truly is...it cuts critically at the heart of one of the United States’ greatest shames.

Without telling the audience what to think, without a narrator explaining and intervening, the directors take us into the difficult and heart-breaking lives of people marginalized by bad luck, mental health problems, drug use, class, race, and gender.

Lead Me Home is a necessary, heartrending piece of art, a vital, poetic examination of the housing crisis and the very real people it affects every day.
