** MATURE AUDIENCES ONLY **



In 2011, Stephen McCoy set out to make a documentary film about homeless people and addicts in downtown Boston, people he labeled “Nightcrawlers.” Using his Hi8 camcorder, he filmed everything he experienced. And now, after his five year journey, he’s homeless and addicted to heroin. NIGHTCRAWLERS chronicles his journey and metamorphosis from artist and documentarian to subject of his own cautionary tale. Curated from almost 80 hours of his personal tapes, this intoxicating video diary gives a glimpse into a post-financial crisis America, a place of fear, paranoia, and poverty that drew the filmmaker into its dark underbelly and never let go.



With homelessness and addiction affecting the heart of Seattle, this film couldn't be more relevant to launch a discussion about what we can do to help those in need and spark a new conversation that ends the stigma of addiction. For the first time ever, a panel of guests will have a positive discussion after the film offering various perspectives on the issues.

SPECIAL GUESTS WILL INCLUDE:

1. JOE CONIFF (RECOVERY COACH)

2. AMBER CATRON (DANCE SAFE)

3. BRANDON LETSINGER (CADCADIA UNDERGROUND)

4. KEVIN RONCA (NIGHTCRAWLERS PRODUCER)

5. SHILO JAMA (PEOPLES HARM REDUCTION ALLIANCE)

Now is your rare chance to experience this eye opening portrait of addiction, homelessness, and beauty, presented unadulterated and uncut. A film the festival circuit deemed "too real" and tried to silence, being brought to Seattle for a unique night of entertainment and conversation. All proceeds from the catering will go towards charity.
