Building Resilience: a Documentary Film Project

Sometimes we need more adventure than a game can provide, and roleplaying can only get you so far. Building Resilience is a bold film project following one man’s journey down the Mississippi River from Minneapolis to the Gulf of Mexico in a hand-built wooden sailboat called a Dory.

However, this movie is about more than just an adventure. It’s a story about building resilience through play, hard work, and community. Along the way, he will interview people who have faced tremendous challenges and learn from their experiences.

This expedition serves as the launchpad for an effort to educate everyday people about how they can improve their own resilience and learn critical mental health and wellness skills that will help them face anything life can throw at them.

Every mile rowed and every dollar raised helps bring this story to life.
