The documentary follows a worrying global phenomenon: the excessive rise in house prices, although the population's income is stagnant. Will our cities become too expensive to afford to live in? Leilani Farah, the UN rapporteur on adequate housing, set out to understand this crisis that is forcing the relocation of millions of people to the benefit of an increasingly rich and influential anonymous owner.

POVESTIRI DIN BALCON

DURATION: 36 MINUTES
SUBTITLE: ROMANIAN

In Havana, it's better to walk in the middle of the street and not on the sidewalk where you could be hit by a piece of shattered balconies. However, the balcony connects people with their neighbors, with street vendors, with the noise and smell of the streets. Ceci has spent his whole life here. He is now old and blind, but he is not alone. He has his balcony where he does his shopping, listens to the important news and calls Edilia, a young woman on the other side of the street who takes care of him like a daughter. This touching relationship also leaves room for a declaration of love for the balconies of Havana.
