An Uplifting Story of Hope: Interview with “Sonnie” Director Sam Mirpoorian

Filmmaker Sam Mirpoorian created a short documentary about the resilience of the human spirit. The film is called "Sonnie" and it’s about Deon "Sonnie" Casey. He’s a single father trying to provide a better life for his son. The documentary follows him as he finds strength and solace hoping that things will soon get better. I spoke with Mirpoorian about creating the documentary, meeting Sonnie, and the strenght of the human spirit. "Sonnie" is now streaming on NBCLX. Click here for more info.
