Synopsis
In late 1980s, a battle rages between longtime residents of Hoboken, N.J.'s ethnic enclaves and the developers who want to convert their inexpensive housing into high-priced rental units. Filmmaker Nora Jacobson investigates the issue, focusing her lens on the city's pro-affordable housing mayor, Tom Vezetti, and a cast of locals ranging from elderly and immigrant residents being forced from their homes to aspiring artists who rely on the area's cheap rents.
