Synopsis:

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, its a different kind of monster.The film follows Leilani Farha, the UN Special Rapporteur on Adequate Housing, as shes travelling the globe, trying to understand whos being pushed out of the city and why. I believe theres a huge difference between housing as a commodity and gold as a commodity. Gold is not a human right, housing is, says Leilani.
