Shot over the course of four years, director Rachel Fleisher's documentary introduces viewers to six homeless Los Angleans including a heroin-addicted Skid Row dweller, and families that have fallen back on temporary housing. Along the way Fleisher becomes a character in her own story by reaching out to her subjects while telling their stories. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Music by Jacques Brautbar
Filmmaker Rachel Fleischer spent four years creating this documentary that enters the lives of six homeless individuals in her hometown of Los Angeles. The film's subjects include families in temporary housing, a street performer who depends on banjo-playing for income, and a heroin-addicted man living in Skid Row. As the film's stories confront our preconceived notions regarding homelessness, Fleischer's journey reveals the challenges and triumphs of helping those without a home.
