Gateway Guardians
The homeless dog population in East St. Louis is a constant battle for rescue group Gateway Pet Guardians. This documentary provides a glimpse into an organization that daily feeds, rescues and adopts hundreds of animals each year abandoned by their owners and society. The story is told by Gateway Pet Guardians' volunteers, community members and most notably, founder PJ Hightower. To capture what no film crew could capture, PJ along with volunteers wore miniature hip-cams. These hip cameras recorded what PJ and her volunteers see, alone, on a daily basis. The audience, in turn will get to see these dogs for the first time as they have never otherwise been seen.
