The Working Poor
This documentary examines America's working poor, the millions who hold down jobs yet remain financially fragile long after the 2009 recession was declared over. It follows workers whose wages fail to keep pace with the cost of living, exposing the gap between official recovery and everyday reality. The film gives real weight to the people behind the statistics rather than treating them as data points. A clear-eyed watch for anyone interested in poverty, labor, and the American economy.
