Squat! -- Film Description:
"Montreal, summer 2001. During the city's acute housing crisis, young militants and people with poor lodging or none at all barricaded and occupied a vacant building, voicing their right to decent housing and a desire to live their own way. Their cliché ridden portrayal in the media makes them wary of the reporters sent to cover what is presented as a mini siege. But they do trust filmmaker Ève Lamont, and allow her to enter their lives, tell their story and present their vision on what life should be. Their project was eventually brutally dismantled, but their experiences in this film acclaimed served to present a microcosm of the harsh effects of real estate speculation and poor planning and indifference of government agencies."
