'Rejoice,' the letter said..
"I would not exchange the laughter of my heart for the fortunes of the multitudes; nor would I be content with converting my tears, invited by my agonized self, into calm. It is my fervent hope that my whole life on this earth will ever be tears and laughter."
- Kahlil Gibran

3. The Julie Project by Darcy Padilla
A beautiful, harrowing 18 year photographic documentary on Julie Baird:
“[Darcy Padilla] began the Julie Project 18 years ago, in 1993. Through thousands of pictures, as well as letters, journal entries, logs of phone conversations and newspaper cuttings, it tracks the blighted life of Julie Baird, a women Padilla first met in 1993 in the lobby of San Francisco’s run-down Ambassador hotel – “barefoot, pants unzipped, and an eight-day-old infant in her arms”. Back then, Julie was 18, and lived with a man called Jack, from whom she had contracted Aids. She was strung out on heroin, and had been living on the streets since running away from home at 14.”
