Among the Discarded offers a raw glimpse into life on Skid Row through the eyes of artist Trent Dion Soto. Armed only with a GoPro and a toothbrush, he documents his 30-day journey into homelessness. The pacing is contemplative, almost meditative, as it captures the stark realities of urban life. There's a haunting atmosphere throughout, underscored by the gritty visuals that pull no punches. Soto's performances—though not traditional acting—are deeply engaging; it’s his vulnerability that draws you in. The practical effects are non-existent, but that's the point. The film's power lies in its unfiltered honesty and the conversations it sparks about society's overlooked individuals. A distinctive entry in documentary filmmaking, for sure.
