"Lot Lizard" is not a feel-good movie. The documentary about sex-workers serving truck drivers in the night hours paints a pretty dark picture and shows the unfiltered reality.
You learn which influence this job has, not only for the women themselves but also for their environment. How they see themselves. How others see them. Why in some cases drugs seem to be the only way of escaping this literally grey daily struggle.
To deal with people we tend to pass is one of the great things that a documentary can achieve. In my eyes "Lot Lizard" does so. It may be a bit sad or depressing, but it shows you why every human deserves respect. Without great budget it tells a story. And listening to it is worth the time.
