Comedy writer and author Steve Young will be bringing his Industrial Musicals show to the Hollywood Theatre in July

In this episode of The Film Show, we learn about two very different documentary series, one about homeless action, the other about industrial musicals.

Jenn Chavez talks with Ibrahim Mubarek about the Clinton Street Theater's upcoming documentary screening Right 2 Survive: Breaking the Chains, a series of short films about the rise of the grassroots homeless advocacy group Right 2 Survive.

And S.W. Conser asks comedy writer and author Steve Young to explain exactly what an Industrial Musical is. Steve will be coming to the Hollywood Theatre in July for a live show about this overlooked and oddly entertaining piece of film history.
