Paycheck to Paycheck : The Life & Times of Katrina Gilbert

Films Media Group, (film distributor.). Home Box Office (Firm) (Added Author).

Summary: Filmed in Chattanooga, Tennessee, this documentary is a personal journey that follows a year in the life of Katrina Gilbert, a 30-year-old woman earning just above the minimum wage as a certified nursing assistant. Katrina never expected to be a single mother of three young children, living paycheck to paycheck and barely scraping by. But after leaving her husband Jeremy - whose addiction to painkillers destroyed their marriage and gutted their finances - Katrina finds herself living in a trailer and providing sole support to her children. Overworked, underpaid, and uninsured, Katrina's saving graces are a budding relationship with a single father facing similar circumstances and the Chambliss Center, a subsidized day-care center that provides affordable daycare. A microcosm of the ordeal faced by some 70 million women and children in the U.S. today. This film is one component of the recently released, multi-platform project, The Shriver Report: A Woman's Nation Pushes Back from the Brink.
