You may remember Willie Baronet from our HooplaHa original video. It highlighted the artist's journey collecting homeless signs and shedding light on their lifestyle. Willie's back and continuing to create hope for the homeless.

Willie Baronet is a professor and artist in Dallas, TX. Since 1993, Willie has been buying and collecting homeless signs. His through-provoking art collection went viral as he traveled across the country from Seattle to NYC. His homeless signs creation became the subject of a successful traveling art exhibit. His journey across the country and the people he met along the way has become the basis of a new documentary, which will premier on Friday, April 15, 2016 at 7:30pm at the Dallas Film Festival. Since we caught up with Willie in 2015, his project has grown countrywide and is changing the lives of so many people.
