To draw attention to a right to shelter and to a new amendment to the constitution and to raise $1m for right to shelter organizations the next amendment commissioned the Creative Director of the UN, Gabo Arora to adapt Matthew Desmond’s book Evicted into an immersive documentary These Sleepless Nights. The project premieres in competition at the Venice Film Festival and will tour cities in America that are working on right to shelter issues.
