Expect Miracles (2011)

When times get tough, to whom do you turn? In the heart of Central Appalachia, where poverty for many is a lifelong burden, the answer to that question often is limited. When the Garretts, a loving family in Jonesville, VA, are swindled by a fraudulent contractor, they are left with nowhere to turn and a house in disrepair. That is until they hear about the Appalachia Service Project. In this touching portrayal of a family in need and a group of people ready to help, filmmakers Doug Seirup and Brean Cunningham illuminate the true meaning of lending a hand to a neighbor, in the documentary feature, Expect Miracles.
