The Broken American Dream
This documentary follows working Americans chasing a fraying version of the American Dream. It centres on people juggling multiple jobs and cramped living just to stay afloat in expensive regions like Silicon Valley. The film turns statistics about wages and housing into intimate, everyday struggles. It is a grounded watch for anyone interested in society, inequality, and the reality of hard work in modern America. Free to watch in HD on Dr Documentary.
