I am always trying to educate myself on social issues and problems worldwide. I was excited to watch a documentary on Netflix about homelessness, following people experiencing this. I was very disappointed in how the directors did this however. So many pointless pan-overs of the city with a terrible song playing in the background. I ended up skipping most of them.
The best part of this documentary was listening to these people's stories and hearing how and why they were on the streets. How they accessed basic needs like food, hygiene, and a safe place to sleep at night-the one thing they needed to get off the street. I sincerely hope Netflix gave all of these people an envelope full of money for being brave enough to tell their story to countless people. Gosh knows Netflix rolls in millions each year and can part with a few thousand.
