street is to entertain their audience. The show includes many scenes of violence, arguments, humor, crimes etc. All to which keeps their audience very entertained.
Another one of Benefits streets purposes is
also to inform their audience what its like to live like a lower class resident on benefits. We see the environments that they live in and how they interact with one another that they live with. We learn about different financial and social issues they suffer with.
One last purpose of the documentary
Benefits Street is to inspire people to help and understand what its like to live on benefits. We see a lot of the struggles they go through as a community and makes us wonder how other people live on benefits too.
