Plot

Hailed as "A Must Watch" by Nobel Laureate Muhammad Yunus and Gary Ross, director of The Hunger Games, Living on One Dollar is a compelling tale of survival and resilience. The film trails four friends who dare to survive on a mere dollar a day for two months in the heart of rural Guatemala. They grapple with hunger, battle parasitic infections, and wrestle with the harsh reality of poverty, an experience far removed from their American upbringings. This is not a fictional tale, but a harsh reality for over 1.1 billion people globally. Throughout their journey, they are confronted with the harsh truth that there are no easy remedies for poverty. Yet, amid these trials, they find hope in the unlikely forms of Rosa, a spirited 20-year-old woman, and Chino, a resilient 12-year-old boy. Their courage and generosity remind the friends that even in the face of adversity, individual actions can spark meaningful change. Living on One Dollar is an exploration of the human spirit's ability to endure, offering a poignant window into a reality seldom seen but deeply felt by billions worldwide.
