A HOME WORTH FIGHTING FOR
The Push to Stop the Demolition of Public Housing in Chelsea
Synopsis:
Through the eyes of longtime residents fighting to save their homes, A Home Worth Fighting For, exposes a flawed political process that prioritizes private developers over the preservation of public housing and dismisses calls for transparency. While pitched as resident driven, this proposed demolition clearly aims to clear valuable land in Chelsea to make way for market rate development on public land. Determined to defend their community, residents organize to resist a profit-driven plan aimed at privatizing public housing.
Natasha Florentino (director, producer, and co-director of photography), Oliver Metzler (co-director of photography), and Jason Alarcòn (editor). Run Time: 40 min.
