Title: Homeless to Harvard: The Liz Murray Story (2003)

IMDB: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0338109/?ref_=nv_sr_1

Contributed By: Lena Shakhanov

"This movie that suits many themes i feel, but one of them is how we can choose to take the personal responsibility for our lives even if we had a harsh start in life and had nothing. Instead of looking for excuses and being addicted to victim self. Being poor and homeless is harsh on the psychic of anyone when the environment around is mainly the opposite to that state."
