Landlords without faces, apartments without tenants, Push explores the new, unaffordable, unlivable city.

"With housing now such a lucrative financial investment, how do we push back and reclaim our homes?

In November of 2016, award-winning filmmaker Fredrik Gertten reached out to Global Director Leilani Farha, then UN Special Rapporteur on the right to housing, on Twitter to learn more about her work. Three years later, the feature-length documentary Push premiered globally in Copenhagen, Denmark.

Push follows Leilani as she investigates why cities around the world are becoming so unaffordable. Housing is a fundamental human right, a precondition to a safe and healthy life, and is recognized by law in many countries. But in cities all around the world, finding and keeping a place to live is becoming increasingly difficult. Who are the players, and what has made housing one of the defining crises of our time?"

The format is that people are invited to attend these free screenigns which will start at 6:30pm. The cafe will be open if you would like to grab a beverage, treat or a meal.from 6pm tp 6:30 (the earlier the better).

After the screening, we will discuss what we watched, how it affected you, and what might you do with the information and emotions you gained about this subject.
