Evicted City

About This Movie

So, 'Evicted City' is quite an interesting watch. Directed by Laurence Turcotte-Fraser, it digs deep into the housing crisis in Montreal, which is one of the last affordable spots in North America, believe it or not. The film's tone is raw and intertwined, almost like a tapestry of personal stories that reflect broader socio-political themes. The pacing shifts between urgent and reflective, pulling you into the lives of those affected by real estate speculation. It's not flashy, but the practical effects of real-life interviews and the gritty atmosphere really hit home. It’s distinctive in how it captures the resistance of communities. Overall, it feels like a thoughtful exploration rather than a standard documentary.
