What is life really like inside America’s last free place?
In this documentary, we travel deep into the California desert to meet the real residents of Slab City—a unique off-grid community built on the concrete slabs of an abandoned military base.
Rather than focusing on rumors or reputation, we sit down with the people who call this harsh, fascinating environment home.
