Down and Out in Anchorage: Homeless in America's Coldest City (2014)
Down and Out in Anchorage: Homeless in America's Coldest City (2014)- Documentary | Short | Drama
How do the outdoor homeless survive the winter in America's coldest city? That's the question Weather Films, the documentary film unit of Weather.com, asked in January 2014. We sent a crew to find out. We discovered a group of people who brave punishing cold, random violence, their own substance abuse problems, and the efforts of outreach workers in the pursuit of living as they want to -- outside, beyond the reach of shelters and law enforcement. There's no narrator in this film -- our goal was to show the humanity and complexity of the men and women living without homes by letting them speak for themselves.
