Durango Independent Film Festival 2009

Armed with nothing but a camera, 24-year-old filmmaker Rachel Fleischer sets out to understand the homeless epidemic that plagues her native city of Los Angeles. Over a four-year period, Fleischer, with unflinching honesty, documents the lives of six homeless individuals and families and the challenges they face as they try to find a home, get clean and survive. Intertwined with each tale is the story of Fleischer herself, as she struggles to walk the fine line between telling the stories of her subjects and helping those in need. A work in progress.
