The event will also serve as a coordinating point the forthcoming documentary Crowd of Angels which is being produced by event organizer Chris Camillo. The film is described as:
a documentary following a small, scrappy group of ordinary Americans who, through collaboration and shared hope, successfully get one of the most important pieces of financial legislation in a century signed into law. Their efforts ignite a cultural crowd funding movement of innovation that is energizing ordinary people of all socio-economic backgrounds and ethnicities to follow their dreams, and to join others that they believe in.
