Why can’t we afford to live in our cities?

PUSH is a new documentary from award-winning director Fredrik Gertten, investigating why we can’t afford to live in our own cities anymore. Housing is a fundamental human right, a precondition to a safe and healthy life. But in cities all around the world, having a place to live is becoming more and more difficult. Who are the players and what are the factors that make housing one of today’s most pressing world issues?

The film prominently features CGT Members Sassia Sasken and Joseph E. Stiglitz, who help explain how and why private equity firms buy up high-end real estate as investments.
