Lives Made Disposable

Simply typing in "So Cal Foreclosures" will lead you to hundreds of websites and blogs dedicated to pointing out the decaying state of the industry. Easily lost amid the shouts and screams is what is left in the wake. The shattered dreams and memories that a home holds seem even more desperate when viewed on film, which is exactly what KCET delivers on "So Cal Connected." The show follows "trash out" crews, who are paid by banks to clear out homes of artifacts left behind. In a matter of hours the homes are cleaned out, and you're left with the feeling that nothing, neither the house itself or its contents, were ever there. Is a sobering watch, I promise to make my next post is a happy one.
