Waging A Living

The term "working poor" should be an oxymoron.

If you work full time, you should not be poor, but more than 30 million Americans - one in four workers - are stuck in low wage jobs that do not provide the basics for a decent life.  WAGING A LIVING chronicles the battle of four low-wage workers to lift their families out of poverty.  Shot over a three-year period in the northeast and California, this observational documentary captures the dreams, frustrations, and accomplishments of a diverse group of workers who struggle to live from paycheck to paycheck.  By presenting an unvarnished look at the barriers that these workers must overcome to escape poverty, WAGING A LIVING offers a sobering view of the elusive American Dream.

Produced and Directed by Roger Weisberg, Eddie Rosenstein, Frances Reid and Pamela Harris.
