From directors Nate Houghteling (American Pathogen, State of Pride) and Yoav Attias (Brick City, Chicagoland) comes a new film that dives headfirst into the housing crisis to explain how we got here and predict where we might be headed. The film takes a human-centered view of the crisis to illuminate the impact of decades of policies that are now choking the Bay Area – and threatening to become a national emergency.
The 80-minute documentary centers on three stories of people navigating the complexity of our housing system – a single father seeking permanent housing for his family, a housing activist promoting new legislation that would streamline production, and a neighborhood group opposing a development in their neighborhood. The film also draws on interviews with some of the leading authorities on housing policy, including Jerusalem Demsas of The Atlantic, writer Noah Smith, and California State Senator Scott Wiener.
What can we here in Arizona learn from the experiences depicted in this documentary? Following the screening, we'll have a panel discussion with:
- Yoav Attias, Director, Fault Lines
- Tisha Tallman, Chief Executive Officer, Primavera Foundation
- Keith Bentele, PhD, Associate Research Professor, Southwest Institute for Research on Women
Moderated by Kenny Wong, Co-Director of the Arizona Research Center for Housing Equity and Sustainability (ARCHES) and Drachman Institute Housing Lab Coordinator at University of Arizona.

ARCHES is proud to partner with ULI Arizona for this special program, and a sister screening follows in Mesa, AZ on March 6. Presented with support from Title Sponsor LISC Phoenix and Young Leader Annual Sponsors Capital Fund I and Colliers.
