Talk to Joe Garner, the Documentarian Behind Craigslist Joe, About What It Was Like to Live Off Craigslist For a Month
Joe Garner cut himself off from everyone he knew and, without any money, set out to live off of Craigslist for a full month. Armed with a passport, toothbrush, laptop, contact-less cell phone, and the clothes he was wearing, Garner traveled the US for all 31 days in December, relying on the good people of Craigslist for food, shelter, and transportation. His documentary, Craigslist Joe, chronicles his experiences on the road.
From the film's website: "his experiences raise profound questions about who we are as a society and where we are headed, leaving you to draw your own conclusions." Have you drawn any conclusions yet? Check out the trailer, draw some, and then discuss with Joe, who will answer all your questions right here in the comments at 3pm EST.
Presented by Zach Galifianakis, Craigslist Joe is currently playing select theaters.
