WHY WE WALK is a feature-length documentary telling the story of three black explorers, from across the globe, united in Cincinnati, OH to empower and de-stigmatize urban communities of color and their participation in the great outdoors. Follow the hikers as they embark on a 61-mile backpacking pilgrimage, from the birthplace of the Civil War in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia to the nation's capital, Washington DC. The film aims to reclaim the universal hero's journey and bridge together humanity - one mile at a time.

The film is currently in post-production, and the team is raising funds to support their creative collaborators. WHY WE WALK is seeking funding for animation, film score, editing, and distribution costs to bring this special story to life
