Join us for the world premiere of a powerful documentary which brings to light the deep wounds that bullets create, both seen and unseen. This short film highlights the stories of people whose lives were changed by bullets and received care at the Bullet Related Injury Clinic (The BRIC) here in St. Louis. Through personal narratives, the documentary reveals the deep physical, emotional, and spiritual impact that bullets have—not just on the bodies of those shot, but on the communities around them and how a new concept and approach to those injuries holds within it a new powerful hope of healing. 

Be in community to witness the unveiling of this cutting edge premiere featuring stories from across St. Louis. The event will feature:

• The “Every Bullet Leaves a Mark” documentary premiere, 
• Tasty bites from Pure Catering,
• Music and connection, and
• Community resources. 

“That’s the real bullet related injury, it’s not just the physical wound it’s everything that comes along with it.” Guided by Dr. LJ Punch, trauma surgeon and founder of The BRIC, this documentary challenges us to rethink the impact of bullets, asking—What happens after someone is injured by a bullet? What care is available to them and their families? What is the long term impact of having a bullet in your body?

What does it take to heal and is healing even possible?

These powerful stories weave together, bringing new insights into the most entrenched realities of “gun violence.”

This is more than a film—it’s a call to action.
