Lost in Woonsocket: All of Rhode Island will have the opportunity to view the film, Lost in Woonsocket, when the documentary is shown on Fox Providence, Channel 11, tomorrow at 6 p.m. The film is being presented as part of a fundraising event hosted by Crossroads Rhode Island, the state’s largest nonprofit group serving the needs of the homeless, and Fox Providence, which has made airtime available for the broadcast.

The film, produced by John Chester and Andre Miller of the Arts & Entertainment Network series Random 1, tells the story of two beleaguered, homeless alcoholics discovered living in the woods of Woonsocket by a documentary film crew who decide to help. A series of profound coincidences reunites them with their families and reminds viewers of the power of love and forgiveness.

During the telecast, the film’s producer and Crossroads’ representatives will offer their perspectives on homelessness and alcoholism and suggest what people can all do to help those afflicted recover and regain their lives. Contributions from callers will be donated to Crossroads to support services to the homeless and disconnected.
