INTO SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL

Director & Producer: Sean Dimond,

 Randy Franz, Gary Karns, Sean Dimond

Into Something Beautiful is the story of a construction company transforming personal brokenness and fighting systemic injustice. Amid their own personal and professional brokenness, Amy and Braden King discovered that many of the employees at their new construction company had a history of addiction, homelessness, and/or criminal convictions. Rather than giving in to fear, they chose to create a company that rebuilds lives while it builds houses. Square Peg’s culture-of-recovery has spawned two new companies specifically targeting systemic injustice— housing for the homeless and support services for those in recovery.

12-year-old Tatheer embarks on a week-long Police boot camp for girls from a social housing estate in Copenhagen. Far from home, deep in the woods, she navigates grueling rituals, elusive social dynamics, and personal setbacks to find her place in this tender and revealing coming-of-age story.
