Product Description

While "As Is" presents four grittily real accounts of the fallout of unemployment, displacement and deprivation, it is saved from utter bleakness by the earthy and hope-infused accounts of five other people who embraced voluntary economic simplicity for reasons ranging from the spiritual and environmental to personal development and artistic growth. Intimate and exclusive interviews, behind the scenes footage, original artwork, animation and archival footage are infused with original music (contributed by several of the interviewees) yielding an amalgam of "the moment." Narrated by Marie Keep
