Filthy Rich and Homeless - Series 1 ( Study Guide)

DESCRIPTION

There's a crisis in Australia. More than 100,000 people have no place to call home. And with house and rent prices rocketing – homelessness is a frightening possibility for more of us than ever before.  Five wealthy volunteers have all agreed to swap their lavish lifestyles for ten days living on the streets of Melbourne. They're going to find out what it's like to go from having everything to having absolutely nothing.  Preparing to live amongst Australia's homeless are: Self-made millionaire Tim Guest, daughter of boxing champion Kayla Fenech, rags to riches beauty entrepreneur Jellaine Dee, third generation pub baron Stu Laundy and model & Sydney socialite Christian Wilkins. Leading the five on this social experiment are presenter Indira Naidoo and homelessness expert, Dr Catherine Robinson.  With their phones, ID and money taken from them, the five change into second hand clothing and are each given a sleeping bag. Rain's forecast and temperatures are dropping fast. The volunteers face life alone with no money in their pockets and no roof over their heads. From begging to busking, trespassing to tears - they're tested physically and emotionally. Their preconceptions are challenged.  The social experiment has raised as many questions as answers, the deep complexities of homelessness experienced and explored.
