DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Hirokazu Koreeda Japan

His films like 'Tokyo Story' and 'Broker' intimately explore how characters navigate shared domestic spaces and the economics of housing and survival.

 Ken Loach United Kingdom

His socially conscious cinema directly addresses housing insecurity and rental struggles in works like 'I, Daniel Blake' and 'Sorry We Missed You.'

 Chloé Zhao China/United States

Her films, particularly 'Nomadland,' deeply examine housing precarity, mobile living, and the human dignity within spaces of temporary shelter.
