“The way we think about charity is dead wrong.” -Dan Pallott

---

Based on the book, “UnCharitable,” by Dan Pallotta, the film follows the stories of four iconic American charitable efforts that were crippled or destroyed by old ideas. Step-by-step, and with a chorus of leading voices in the field, the movie shows how charity’s real power has been misunderstood and undermined by

anachronistic ideas about frugality and deprivation and takes the viewer on a journey from sackcloth and ashes to a place where unleashed, charities can play the leading role in creating an unimaginably beautiful world that works for everyone.
