Inspired by his own past experience of living near Skid Row and experiencing homelessness, Baines aims to create a raw and authentic portrayal of a community that is often forgotten.

The series explores the power struggles between the homeless population, new businesses, and the city enforcements, as well as the corruption and financial gain that exists within the higher up. As the world of gentrification collides with the harsh realities of Skid Row, Baines hopes to shed light on the complex issues that people living there face.
