JUXTAPOZ Spare Paint
Directed by Alexander Tarrant

San Francisco artists David Choong Lee and Brian Barneclo talked to two homeless men panhandling the rush-hour traffic. They offer their talents to paint new, visually striking cardboard signs for the men. William, a home-restoration specialist, and Joe, a Vietnam veteran denied retirement benefits, share their stories of what it's like to live on the streets and how they ended up there.
