Speculation Nation

Directed by Sabine Gruffat

In this impressionistic documentary film, Sabine Gruffat and Bill Brown travel across Spain to explore responses to the housing crisis of the early 2000s. The filmmakers visit families squatting in failed condo developments; intentional communities of mountain cave dwellers; protest campsites in front of bank branches; and empty apartment buildings transformed into experiments in 'utopian' living.
