Skid Row Documentary Starring Pras Opened Friday

Trailer for Skid Row Starring Pras

Skid Row, a documentary about homelessness on LA's Skid Row starring Pras, opened in NY, DC and LA on Friday.  LA Downtown News has an interview with Pras regarding the project in which he spent 9 days and nights on Skid Row:

Basically, the situation was "a fish out of water," like if something was to happen to any one of us and somehow you ended up on Skid Row, what would it look like, that reality? What are the requirements to get a room in a shelter, how are you going to survive, where are you going to sleep, what are the politics, can you get yourself out of the situation? This documentary is not propaganda. It's not saying the governor is to blame, the mayor or the police. It's about a situation, homelessness, and that it's a condition, not a disease. And these are the different stories.
