A snapshot of everyday life, where an encounter with society’s poorest, hidden in the bowels of the city, challenges our ability to reach out to them. Vagrants, loners, outsiders—what do they stir within us? Artists, filmmakers, and authors have pondered this question. The text concludes with a poem by Marguerite Duras.
