Push
Housing prices are skyrocketing in cities around the
world. Incomes are not. PUSH sheds light on a new kind of faceless
landlord, our increasingly unliveable cities and an escalating crisis that has an effect on us all. This is not gentrification,
it’s a different kind of monster.
The film follows Leilani
Farha, the UN Special Rapporteur on Adequate Housing, as she’s traveling the globe, trying to
understand who’s being pushed out of the city and why. “I believe there’s a huge difference between housing as a commodity
and gold as a commodity. Gold is not a human right, housing is,” says Leilani.
