#standwithme

#standwithme examines the realities of modern-day slavery, the role we play in it as consumers, and the importance of knowing the story behind what we buy. After seeing a photo of two enslaved boys in Nepal, Vivienne Harr is moved to help in the only way she knows how: by setting up her lemonade stand. As Vivienne's vision begins to show promise for something greater, she and her family must fight to avoid supporting the very thing they are up against.

Directed by Grant Peelle, Patrick Moreau, #standwithme leans on a strong ensemble — Teal Redmann — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2014.
