America's Broken Dream: The Middle-class Families Living in Motels
This film exposes the fragility of the American dream through middle-class families forced to live in motels after the 2008 credit crisis. In a country built on the promise of liberalism, it shows how thin the safety net has become for those who slip. The personal stories give hard economics a human face. It is a sobering watch about inequality, precarity, and the quiet erosion of the middle class. Free to watch in HD on Dr Documentary.
