It should be immediately noted that while Fleischer does allow herself to become part of this story, she is most definitely not the film's defining story. Go to Full Review Casey Krosser Bust Magazine 08/11/2017
[Without a Home] really moves past the stereotypes surrounding the homeless, and gives each of the people documented the chance to share a full portrait of their lives Go to Full Review Read all reviews

05/16/2016 Watch this and Skid Row. Some of the same people are in both and gives you such a complete picture. I was leery at first because as an advocate for the homeless I'm used to poverty porn. She really embraced her fellow citizens as citizens and fellow human beings. It also shows the frustrations we run into getting people help. The criminal justice system is the biggest provider of mental health services in the nation. This film helps you see a bit how. Unfortunately, she falls into the trap many people do trying to help and takes on the savior syndrome that burns out so many that do not have proper boundaries or training. She really needed more guidance and shows why professionals are needed. RIP, Mike. Your life was not lived in vain. See more Read all reviews
