The video takes at it starting point the changing nature of the area around Gainsborough Studios in east London autumn 2003 while the old film studio was in the process of being turned into a luxury apartment building. In the film an estate agent shows an incongruous bunch of youngsters around a new luxury development. The work highlights the process of gentrification by contrasting dilapidated council housing and public spaces with the newness and unaffordability of the development.
