A LUKE BRAUN / KYLE LAFFEY/ LOYOLA MARYMOUNT DOCUMENTARY ABOUT LOS ANGELES HOMELESSNESS

This film focuses on the street homeless or "chronically homeless" who have drug/alcohol and/ or mental illness, which by one person on the film is 70 to 90 % of the homeless. Do these two conditions go hand in hand?

WHAT ABOUT FAMILY THAT CAN'T COPE OR WON'T HELP?

We'd say a lot of homeless are in that situation of long ago being kicked out of a family but in some cases that isn't because they were the sickest person in the family but the HEALTHIEST!

We know of situations where people who were not mentally ill were pressured to "go mental" as well. How long on the street can anyone cope without becoming a little crazy?
