WE GO INTO THE HOMELESS COMMUNITY OF LONG BEACH, CALIFORNIA AND ASK THOSE BEARING THE COLD RAINY WET WEATHER HOW THEY FARE THROUGH HARD TIMES.
THEY TALK ABOUT THEIR UNCONVENTIONAL LOVE RELATIONSHIPS, THEY SHARE THEIR POETRY WITH US, AND THEIR EXPERIENCE WITH FACING DAILY HARASSMENT AND THREATS OF STREET VIOLENCE, HEALTH PROBLEMS, AND THEY ALSO SHARE THE TRAUMATIC CAUSES OF THEIR HOMELESSNESS, REMINDING US THAT ITS A TOUGH LIFE IN THE STREETS OF THE CITY.
