Today is a big day for Fault Lines, the new documentary film from Nate Houghteling and Yoav Attias.
When we started this project, we set out to tell the story of America’s housing crisis through the lens of what was happening in our own backyard of San Francisco. The decades-long battle over the cost of housing in SF is reaching a breaking point, with dire warnings for the rest of the country.
Over the course of three years, we followed our subjects – a housing activist, the leader of a neighborhood group, and an unhoused family – as they grappled with the fallout of the lack of affordable housing in our cities.
Today we’re hugely excited to bring this film out into the world with our first trailer and a series of advanced screenings around the country.
If this story speaks to you, and you’re interested in learning more, please consider sharing the trailer with your community. And for more information on how to attend a screening or to contact us about setting up a screening in your community, visit faultlinesmovie.com
