DAVID & GOLIATH teaser #01 HADON
Meet Hadon, she’s the last remaining tenant on the Aylesbury Estate 1st development site.
DAVID & GOLIATH is 1Hour documentary about how Councils are pushing people out of their homes with no regard for community or health in the name of Regeneration. ‘David & Goliath’ follows resident leaseholders at the famous CPO hearing for the Aylesbury estate as well as documenting the lives of the last remaining tenants still living in this ghost estate. The film gives a much needed look into a world which so far has been closed to most and shows how unfair the system is if you have very little money and depend on the Council.
But the outcome might surprise you.
OUT 2017
