With the 2010 Olympics approaching, will the world get to know Vancouver's darkest secret? 'Streets of Plenty' chronicles one man's perilous journey to live in Vancouver's downtown east side ghetto. The rules of this twisted social experiment? Starting with only a pair of underwear, he must survive the harsh winter streets for 31 days. He has no money, no friends, no family, and most importantly, no home. He must navigate the institutions, policies and services alongside the thousands of people that call Vancouver's streets home.

"Interesting documentary about homelessness in Vancouver—centred around addiction. You follow his journey as the protagonist puts himself into increasingly dangerous situations. I’d argue that it’s less of a documentary on homelessness than it is a cautionary tale of how drugs can ruin your life and keep you on the street. It puts into perspective the true issue: addiction and mental health."
