Film Description: "Intercut with footage of Tom [Jackson] performing the Huron Carol, images of street people and stylized archival footage, Ballads Not Bullets tells the story of how Tom came to use his gift of song to contribute millions of dollars to the fight against poverty and homelessness. With a rich soundtrack of music and Tom's spoken word, the film focuses on the importance of using our gifts to give back to society." -- National Film Board of Canada (source) |
