Common Ground
What if we’re all saying the same thing, just using different words? Common Ground is a thought-provoking documentary that dives into the lives of four young adults, spanning Millennials and Generation Z, to explore what connection and meaning look like in a world that feels increasingly fragmented. After years of dialogue with religious groups, generational communities, and diverse walks of life, this film reveals a simple yet profound theory—that our shared human experience binds us, even when our languages or perspectives seem worlds apart.
Through intimate interviews, compelling storytelling, and real-life moments of vulnerability, Common Ground takes viewers on a journey through the minds and hearts of a generation searching for connection, purpose, and understanding. Whether navigating spirituality, social justice, or personal identity, this film captures the nuances of what makes us human and how, at our core, we all desire the same things: belonging, meaning, and connection.
