Join the School of Communication, Society and Culture at Macquarie University for a screening of SOLD! Who Broke the Australian Dream?, followed by a panel discussion exploring Australia’s housing crisis, renting and affordable housing solutions.

About the film

Comedian Mark Humphries is sick of standing in lines for rentals. But if a C-grade celebrity is struggling to buy a house, how do normal people do it? Mark investigates Australia’s housing crisis, uncovering the policies which supercharged the housing market, the solutions at hand, and one big revelation that might just fix it.
