Low Priority Premiere

Low Priority is a fictional narrative film based on the lived experiences of people with diabetes experiencing homelessness. When Bobby, a man living with diabetes experiences a dangerous low blood sugar in a shelter bathroom, his journey to the hospital is not just a medical emergency — it becomes a revealing portrait of how stigma and judgment follow people experiencing homelessness through the health care system. Through his eyes, the film spotlights the resilience required to navigate not only a life-threatening condition in an impossible situation, but also an overburdened system that tends to see the circumstance before the person, challenging us to confront our assumptions about care, dignity, and humanity.
