Out of Reach: The Struggle for the American Dream

Description

Do you think life is overall better or worse for workers than it was 40 years ago? OUT OF REACH seeks to answer this question by following five years in the lives of four generations of Milwaukee workers, documenting the ongoing slide that has made the middle class disappear at an alarming clip. Our history is a cautionary tale for America about the consequences of trickle-down economics and a nihilistic culture war.

This screening will be followed by a talkback with director Faith Kohler, editor Luis Zeron, and film participants Ari Mondry, Randy Bryce, Mike Bink, and DiAndre Jackson
