The lives of the LGBT youth in “A Road to Home” typify the experience of the 300,000 homeless youth on American streets every night, 40% of them LGBT. In the course of their journeys, four of the kids get aid from the Ali Forney Center, a program devoted solely to homeless LGBT youth. The struggle of its founder Carl Siciliano to keep its programs alive mirrors the journeys of the kids themselves. What the film reveals is not only the dangers, the fears, the lonely anxiety of being homeless, but also the resulting wounds to the heart that must be healed. The 6 characters in this film are determined that their current traumas will not define them for the rest of their lives.
