A Billion People Live Like This: Inside the World's Informal Cities

This documentary explores the world's informal cities, the slums, squats and precarious settlements now home to one person in six. Titled Informal Cities, it looks at the homes the world's poor build for themselves and the governments that try to stamp them out. Over its full length it challenges assumptions about poverty, housing and dignity. A revealing watch on cities, inequality and how a billion people really live.
