It makes people's mind think... And there's me thinking that every person that's begging on the street is a bad person or on drugs they're bad. They probably will go away and get drugs, but they're going to get up off the floor for a half an hour, an hour, and they won't have to sit there full of shame.
Imagine a story where bareback horse racing meets the struggles of a young Native American woman, all captured through the empathetic lens of a talented filmmaker. That's what you'll find in this episode of The Two Norries Podcast.
