SYNOPSIS
Not for Sale: A Witness Story is about one community’s prophetic vocation to hold space for their homeless and impoverished neighbors amidst an ever-growing gentrification project that booms around them in Corktown, Detroit.
St. Peter’s Episcopal Church has been serving the homeless community in Corktown since the Great Depression. With the recent developments creeping closer to the church, the parish is finding clever ways to push back against some of the cynical and indifferent attitudes of Corktown’s developers and their new neighbors of high socioeconomic status.
In addition to the Better Cities Film Festival, this documentary was invited to and earned film laurels from three international film festivals in 2023 and 2024.
Directed by Brianne Turczynski
