║ Lose your job in Australia and there's a good chance there will be a ║
║ safety net to catch you. The Newstart allowance, Medicare benefits, ║
║ along with other programs provide help. But it's a very different ║
║ story in the United States. ║
║ ║
║ It may be the wealthiest country in the world but as documentary ║
║ maker Philippe Levasseur shows in America's Broken Dreams, when you ║
║ lose your job in the US there is very little to protect you. In 2008 ║
║ the global financial crisis hit the poor first, but now America's ║
║ middle class is being devastated. ║
║ ║
║ Larry, 52, used to manage a large customer service department. But ║
║ two years ago he lost his job and house. Today he lives in a motel ║
║ room with his wife and two children and scrapes by on $820 dollars a ║
║ month, welcoming tourists to Disney World. After he has paid the ║
║ motel fees, he's left with just $70 a week for food and other ║
║ necessities. ║
║ ║
║ Terry used to be a sales manager and enjoyed a good life until he ║
║ was made redundant. He ended up roaming from motel to motel in ║
║ Florida in his car and eventually was judged 'economically ║
║ incapable' of raising his six children. The three eldest were placed ║
║ in foster care. ║
║ ║
║ There are currently 1,800 children growing up in the motels around ║
║ Disney World. They move from school to school as their parents are ║
║ forced to find cheaper accommodation. ║
║ ║
║ Amber and Daniel are married but are forced to live on different ║
║ sides of the United States. Why? It's the only way they can honestly ║
║ make enough money to stop themselves and their children going hungry. ║
║ ║
║ Three unique stories, but all have one thing in common: they are ║
║ America's new poor, who struggle for work but can barely survive. ║
║ ║
║ Filmmaker Philippe Levasseur takes his camera into car parks, ║
║ trailer homes and motels across the country as middle class families ║
║ try to regain the American dream. What he found is simply shocking. ║
