Becoming Fools - Kickstarter Video

Help us kickstart this film!

'Becoming Fools' portrays the vision of Italo, a professional clown who invested in the lives of kids living on the street. He spent years working with a group of street kids and dreamed of a holistic youth center that would provide hope and opportunity. He began to teach the art of clowning to street children to provide them a source of income. Sadly, Italo's life was cut short when he tragically drowned in February of 2011. Both Guatemala and these street kids lost a hero.

Thankfully, some of Italo's friends and colleagues are continuing his vision. Families are fostering abandoned children. Organizations are providing family support services. Orphanages are casting vision of adoption.

We want to honor Italo's life by telling this beautiful story of struggle and hope. We'll document the lives of these street youth and capture the process as they learn the art of clowning to perform at parties and events. We'll also interview leading experts on street youth and families who are fostering children in Guatemala. All of these plots will converge at a public event next spring when the community is invited to watch the street youth perform with professional clowns and share their hearts.
