First of all most of these characters are not the gender they present as, it's fairly obvious so the stories they tell are false categorically in many ways. So we have casting decisions as to who will tell stories so you look for people who will do that no problem.
Another one is the credits where we have the writer Mario Puzo in there, huh? What's a major writer of those awful smear movies which are about the tribester mafia just projecting to defame doing involved with such a "real" doco? We also have the fact that this is a warner bros distributor at the end, they hide this here of course so as to give some more creedence to the authenticity here. Now I'm not going to go through the details of the film itself but just the indicators of awards and nominations and such don't help it. And interested parties posting here who "knew" them or "worked" there here don't help either, they reinforce the scam more than anything. This seems to be a series almost with reuninons of sort pointing to the franchising aspect which no one can deny.
Now it's obvious there are homeless adolescents out there but movies are about scripting and imagery so then you have a huge incentive to just cast people you can control to either improvise or script. The pro camera and audio work is evident here and real people on the streets are difficult and unsteady as to be not good for narrative and hundreds of hours of footage needed. Just the obvious staging of conflict and conversations as to be sitcom like is another indicator of scripting.
Therefore I'm not convinced this was 100% real nor do I think it's 100% fake either but I'd lean to this being like modern "reality" shows which are scripted, pro camera and audio work and they leave out massive amounts of info to give a false image.
