“A cinematic indictment…”

Hammer to Nail

A DECENT HOME, 2022

Feature Documentary | Directed by Sara Terry

When housing on the lowest rung of the American Dream is being devoured by the wealthiest of the wealthy, whose dream are we serving? A DECENT HOME is a feature length documentary film by Sara Terry that addresses urgent issues of class and economic inequity through the lives of mobile home park residents who can’t afford housing anywhere else. The film asks, Who are we becoming as Americans? — as private equity firms and wealthy investors buy up parks, making sky-high returns on their investments while squeezing every last penny out of the mobile home owners who lack rights and protections under local and state laws, and must pay rent for the land they live on.
