Bay Area filmmakers Alan Snitow and Deborah Kaufman will present and discuss their latest documentary, fresh from its world premiere at the Mill Valley Film Festival. Focusing on San Francisco, the home base for start-ups like Airbnb, Uber and Lyft, Company Town vividly reveals an emerging national debate about the role of technology in creating inequality, as tech workers flood in and longtime ethnic and middle-class communities are driven out by skyrocketing rents and evictions. The film focuses on last year’s heated Board of Supervisors campaign, following the two leading candidates, Aaron Peskin and Julie Christensen, as they engage in a neck-and-neck campaign through some of the world’s most famous and iconic neighborhoods. Directors: Deborah Kaufman, Alan Snitow. (US 2016) 77 min. plus discussion.
