She Lives in a $46/Day Micro Apartment in Japan

We meet Kaleen in Tokyo and spend a day learning about her life in an internet café, her work at a hostess bar, and the difficult experiences that led her to leave home. We explore Shinjuku, discuss Japan’s high living costs and social isolation, and visit a game center before sharing a meal. We finally see her tiny room, where she sleeps and keeps nearly all her belongings, highlighting the housing and economic challenges faced by many people in Japan.
