Matthew Berdyck’s Blame Reagan
2013
1h 13m
Hailed as the first-ever, first-person immersion documentary about homelessness in film history, Blame Reagan is an eye-opening look into the hidden world of homelessness. Matthew lived on the streets of cities all along the west coast, for eighteen months, to create this film, risking his life and digging in the dirt to hand the world a gritty, disturbing but very real account of the suffering of a homeless disabled person living in the richest country in the world.

Det Sköra Livet
Pia Sjögren was the subject of three documentaries by director Tom Alandh, beginning in 2001. He first saw her on the street selling newspapers, homeless, addicted to drugs, trying to make enough money for the day. Since then, she has become clean, and now gives lectures about her experiences, sharing her knowledge. This is the fourth film about her, filmed between 2011-2020. At the start of this installment, Pia has recently begun having heart and breathing issues, her own daughter is in prison for narcotics, and her mother, who we were introduced to in previous installments, continues to struggle with rapidly decreasing eyesight.

Leva Livet
Ten years after documentary filmmaker Tom Alandh started filming homeless drug addict Pia Sjögren, he makes his third and final film about her. Pia was 14 years old when she started smoking cannabis and using drugs. Then it all happened really fast. The heavier drugs, the men who beat, and years of cold nights in basements and attics. Treatment and punishment. Rehabs and prisons. Relapse. Constantly back, at the complete bottom, among shame and guilt. For ten years, Tom Alandh and photographer Björn Henriksson documented Pia's life. Two films were made, this is the third and last film, which shows how she managed to get clean against all odds.
