"Housing 4 All" screening on Thursday 2nd May at the Richmix in Shoreditch

The "Housing 4 All" is a short documentary combining the insight of a political video activist (myself) and the creative editing skills of Vasilis Dendrinos a film maker from Greece. The film describes the struggle of a working class family living in London on a low income which doesn't cover the cost of renting in the private sector. As a result of errors made by the Council, they lost their housing benefit, got evicted and became homeless.The journey of the Counihan-Sanchez family starts with their personal struggle and connects with the political apparatus. The documentary is supported by facts and figures on income, policies, and housing construction.


The screening of the "Housing 4 All" is on Thursday 2nd May 2013 and starts at 8pm after the exhibition, ‘The Thatcher Years- my 80′s  by Dave Sinclair which opens with a free preview from 6-7.30pm (email rsvp@richmix.org.uk).
