The Mission: Homelessness in Winnipeg | Winnipeg News
Description
A gripping new documentary, The Mission, pulls back the curtain on homelessness in Winnipeg, revealing how quickly life can unravel—with stories like a woman scammed online and another left with nothing but a backpack after a house fire. It spotlights not just the crisis, but the quiet heroism of those who’ve weathered it and now help others. Siloam Mission, founded in 1987 as a soup kitchen, now serves thousands daily with shelter, meals, and health care—struggling to meet rising demand fueled by addiction crises. The film challenges assumptions, dismantles stigma, and gives voice to everyone touched by homelessness—from the vulnerable to the volunteers—offering a raw, human portrait of resilience amid relentless need.
