Opening Film – PUSH (2019) + Guests and Q&A

The Architecture Film Festival London, in its 2021 edition, addresses a variety of topics related to contemporary architecture. In particular, the role of housing—from the history of housing estates to the current global housing crisis. Thus, this critical topic will provide the basis for the festival’s opening film, Push (2019), directed by Fredrik Gertten.

After the screening of Push on Wednesday, 2 June, a conversation and Q&A with several of the film’s key protagonists, filmmakers, and relevant experts will take place, including Leilani Farha, former UN Special Rapporteur on the Right to Housing and Global Director of The Shift, and Fredrik Gertten.
