Dregs of the City: Las Vegas is a short documentary that explores the depths of Las Vegas, a city that could potentially have one of the worst homeless crises in the world. Thousands of people are living underneath the city, so it's most likely that the numbers of homeless people in the city are being severely undercounted.

In this documentary, viewers will learn about homelessness in Las Vegas both over the ground and under the ground. Over the ground, homeless people are afraid to enter the tunnels underneath the city where the "mole people" live, and underneath the ground they are living in a dangerous state of mind, knowing that water could come at any moment and sweep them away.

Because of all the destruction that is taking place underneath the city, there leaves room for question about haunting spirits and entities that many homeless people in the city have claimed to encounter. Whether or not this is true, there is certainly something sinister happening. Throughout this documentary, we dive into these dark thoughts as well as the other psychological components that make up the Las Vegas homeless community.

A special thanks to @MotherNature for giving us coordinates that helped us find our original entry point into the tunnels.

Also huge thanks to Bethesda and the Fallout series for curating some of the best music a video game has ever seen.
