The true

Mark Singer was a New York resident who befriended a group of people living rough in a tunnel near Penn Station. Despite the abysmal living conditions they had developed a small community and even built their own individual 'homes'. However, the owners (Amtrack) decided that the squatters were posing to much of a risk and decided to evict them.

Appalled by the possibility that they could be turfed out onto the even more dangerous streets, Singer began filming the lives of the residents in the hope that he could raise money to provide them alternative accommodation. What follows is an inspirational and touching journey, recording the stories of these lost souls. Never judgmental or moralistic, this film was cobbled together on borrowed equipment and became took over the life of a man who had no background in film. Highly recommended for the gritty style and fantastic soundtrack (DJ Shadow).
