In Collaboration: S.O.F.A Film Festival
The Series Highlight Reel for ‘Shelter Me’ by Steven Latham is being screened free between January 19th – 28th in collaboration with S.O.F.A Film Festival via our website howlingtalent.com. It goes hand in hand with our podcast series 2 episode 2 when we speak with Steven. ‘Shelter Me’ is an Emmy Award-winning series that is about redemption, hope, helping others and making a difference. It is moving, tear-jerking, and uplifting, all at the same time. Episodes have been hosted by John Legend, Jane Goodall, Edie Falco, Kristin Chenoweth, Jon Hamm, Kristen Bell, Hilary Swank, Allison Janney, Wendie Malick, Jane Lynch and Katherine Heigl.
Some of the stories include inmates who train shelter pets to become service animals; Alzheimer's facilities that foster orphaned kittens; military veterans suffering from PTSD that get paired up with shelter dogs; volunteers that take their dogs to hospitals to comfort patients; the creator of the MUTTS comic strip getting inspiration at an animal shelter; shelter dogs that are trained to do life-saving search-and-rescue; homeless dogs that become scent detection canines to help stop the poaching of African wildlife; and the work singer/songwriter Emmylou Harris does in Nashville to help shelter pets. Please take a few and watch this eye-opening and compelling film before listening to the podcast.
