America's Poor Kids

This documentary looks at child poverty in the United States through the eyes of the children living it, at a time when millions go without stable food and shelter. It follows families squeezed by rising costs, growing food bank queues and shelters with long waiting lists. By keeping the camera at a child's level, it turns an abstract statistic into personal, immediate stories. It is a moving portrait of hardship in one of the world's richest nations.
