MICHAEL E. ARTH, 2020 United States presidential candidate (http://www.michaelearth.org), policy analyst, urban designer, and advocate for the homeless, filmed this 93-minute feature documentary from 2008 to 2012. Filmed as it happened with minimal editing, Out of the Woods is a dark comedy with a serious message and a realizable solution. Dirty Dave Grimsley is a pint-sized blend of Randle McMurphy in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest and George Clooney's Ulysses Everett McGill in O Brother Where Art Thou. Also known as Dammit Man and Tom Sawyer because of his profane hucksterism, Dave is a hard-drinking leprechaun with the gift of gab, a heart of gold and not a pot to piss in. He runs a homeless camp while waiting for local authorities in Volusia County, FL to donate public land for Tiger Bay Village, a community of services for adults who fall through the cracks. • I'm a small potato but I'm hard to peel, Dave brags after being set upon my machete-wielding thugs suspected of killing transients. His girlfriend Allyson is a former beauty queen who was a nurse before substance abuse and outdoor living took its toll. With grim humor, laughter and tears, Vodka Scott, Two-Beer Billy, Dino the Dinosaur, Hopalong and their friends will take you to a place have never been, even though it already exists in the woods near you.
