Liberal-Conservative Film Series: Batteries not included

Join us for a provocative film, popcorn, and post film discussion of the film and housing dynamics as they apply in San Francisco.

"Batteries not included" is a 1987 feature directed by Matthew Robbins, starring Hume Cronyn, Jessica Tandy, Michael Carmine and Michael Greene. It's sci-fi tenants rights political one-ups-manship. The film is set in Manhattan and treats the travails of low-income city dwellers who are holding out against massive development plans. Should affordable housing be a right? Do owners have a right to improve their property?

Join the post show discussion.
