Survival, hope, and resilience collide in the heart of San Francisco

In a world where low-income residents navigate the challenges of Single Room Occupancy (SRO) housing, their stories come alive. A single mother searches for her missing daughter, while an elderly woman faces eviction and the loss of her home. Each tale reveals the stark realities of a community often overlooked. As these individuals confront their daily struggles, they challenge us to rethink what home truly means. Through their voices, we see the essential need for housing as a human right. Their journeys are not just about survival; they are about the fight for dignity and a better future. In this documentary, we are invited to witness their resilience and to understand the urgent call for change.
