Summary: Citizen Penn ​chronicles the moment Sean Penn and his team of volunteers landed in Haiti, just days after the earthquake struck, and the ten years since. The film offers viewers a look into the triumphs and challenges of those who decided to do something. For Penn, Haiti changed his life. He went there for what he thought was a two-week aid mission to drop off supplies, help doctors provide immediate medical care, and then get out and get back to his normal life. Instead, he stayed and created an organization called J/P HRO (now CORE) that took over management duties for the largest camp for displaced people in the entire country. Over the past few years, CORE has expanded its efforts across the United States, most recently organizing free COVID-19 testing sites across the country and running the nation’s largest vaccination site at Dodgers Stadium in Los Angeles. Citizen Penn highlights the team and their current projects in the U.S.
