In Australia’s towns and cities, people are in rental stress. Families, professionals, essential workers, students - millions of people - being forced from the hearts of our urban centres, denied a chance at community, and increasingly held back from living ‘sustainable’ lifestyles, let alone ‘getting on the housing ladder’. So, what are we going to do?
This satirical, solutions-led impact documentary spends time with everyday Australians in the cities, suburbs and regions who all have one thing in common—owning a house seems impossible! Unable to access what we’ve been told is the ‘Australian dream,’ they make up a third of households in Australia, are a growing cohort, and are a key to a sense of community. In its hybridised, comedy-meets-documentary style, SOLD! WHO BROKE THE AUSTRALIAN DREAM? asks how we got into this situation, while asking which of the many solutions at our fingertips are going to help Australia make a dent in its housing crisis in the timeframe we need them to.
Attendance is free of charge but please RSVP to secure your spot.
