Living on One Dollar (2013)

This is an award-winning documentary and it has been criticized for lacking in depth.  However, this was not our experience.  As a sensate, we didn't need to know what it's like to have to go to the restroom or any other ugly details.

Four young men set out to get a good feel for what it's like to have to live on a dollar a day and still be able to eat.  It isn't all sunshine and giggles as one would imagine.  One of the boys is plagued with parasitic infections and they are all weak, hungry and malnourished.

They lived this way for two months in rural Guatemala.  They also befriend a local family who share with them as generously as they are able.  It's touching.

It's real.  It's a good watch.
