Overview
Eunice Levis is developing Affordable Housing, a campy, female-led horror short film that seeks to present the difficult and painful experience of the housing-vulnerable. The story follows the lead character who has to fight monsters to remain in her affordable apartment. The film hopes to not only start a conversation about housing disparity but also identify actionable ways to protect the housing vulnerable by inviting local government officials to screenings as well as hosting community activists and action-based Q&As at screenings.
