What would you do if you couldn't have a conversation with someone you loved - or even understand what he was thinking?

Show Me What You Care About - Trailer
Show Me What You Care About explores notions of connection and belonging by asking the question, 'What do you care about?' In an effort to explore what community and connection means in an urban environment, Brianne Nettelfield and Naomi Mark set out to find what people care about and why those things matter in the broader context.
From mental health in the trans community to food security and communication, Show Me What You Care About threads together the stories of six Vancouverites to find that community is built from more than the simple sharing of a location – community is built through the connections we share with one another, ourselves and how they are manifested through the things we care about.
