The film:


Going the Distance: Journeys of Recovery is a compelling, hour-long character-driven documentary in which four survivors take us inside the experience of traumatic brain injury (TBI) to reveal their personal stories of devastation, heroism and hope.  Called "the Silent Epidemic" and the signature injury of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, TBI impacts millions of Americans and their families. Going the Distance focuses an intimate lens on the daunting, inspiring journeys of the survivors as well as the people who love and care for them.  Produced and directed by three-time Emmy Award winning filmmaker, David L. Brown, Going the Distance promises to be an inspiring and invaluable addition to the media resources on TBI and all disabilities.  Please read more at http://www.goingthedistance.info.


Going the Distance is in the home stretch!  Over three years, we have raised $150,000 in grants, donations and in-kind contributions, which have brought us to within six weeks of completion.  With your support the documentary can be finished and begin to do its important work of educating and inspiring a large international audience, especially those millions impacted by TBI.


Going the Distance: Journeys of Recovery is the best documentary on traumatic brain injury I have seen yet. It is a great piece of work.

What we need and what we can offer you as a reward for support:


Our goal is to raise half of the completion funding needed, or $20,000 (400 people donating an average of $50 each) which will enable us to finalize the editing, color correction and sound mix and begin the licensing of music and archival footage. 

When you make your donation, please email David (Docmaker1@aol.com) with your DVD gift selection.

Thank you so very much!
