Does global wealth mean the poor are systematically crushed?

In a raw and haunting portrait of modern society, The Divide follows seven individuals from the US and UK as they struggle to survive — or succeed — in a world where the top 0.1% owns as much wealth as the bottom 90%. From Wall Street psychologist Alden chasing the elusive top 1%, to Leah, a KFC worker in Virginia just trying to make it through each day, to Jen, isolated in an upscale gated community that doesn't accept her, each story reveals how deeply economic division shapes every corner of life.
