Customer Reviews
Everyone needs to see this film!
This film masterfully tells Mark Lundsford's story in exactly the way Mark approaches his advocacy work: by making it available enough to be "universally understood." "Jessie's Dad" shows Mark's transformation from an "uneducated trucker driver" to a "savvy activist utilizing intimate, observational footage that gives clarity to the complexity and layers of depth to the surface impressions we've gotten from the media over the years. It is not a depressing film. In fact, it is inspiring. I am all at once aching, angry, and humbled by Mark's story. I am thankful for documentaries like "Jessie's Dad." We need more of them.

Incredible Story Amazing Film
I was swept away into Mark Lunsford's pain, agony, heroism and strength. He truly made the world a better place for children, out of his own horrendous nightmare. The film was beautifully done, completely focused on Mark and Jessie.
Beautiful, worth every penny to buy and show everyone you know, whether they have children or not. I am truly inspired.
Amazing film.
What a tribute to the power of grassroots organizing. In the face of unimaginable tragedy, Mark Lundsford has chosen to pour himself into making the world a safer place for our children. Thank you for documenting this story.
