http://www.filmsdulosange.fr CANNES FILM FESTIVAL 2010. QUINZAINE DES RÉALISATEURS : SÉLECTION OFFICIELLE. Le 11 janvier 2008, Josh Cohen et ses associés, avocats de la ville de Cleveland, assignent en justice les 21 banques quils jugent responsables des saisies immobilières qui dévastent leur ville. Mais les banques de Wall street quils attaquent sopposent par tous les moyens à louverture dune procédure. Cleveland vs Wall Street raconte lhistoire dun procès qui aurait dû avoir lieu. Un procès de cinéma, dont lhistoire, les protagonistes et leurs témoignages sont bien réels...
There were people in Cleveland in 2004-2005, who were being evicted from their apartments for not paying rent. They couldn't afford to pay rent because many of them received one or two Social Security disability checks ( $650 -$1300) as their monthly income. Yet when they were evicted, they weren't becoming homeless--they were getting loans to buy HOUSES. Huge scam, in Cleveland, the city of scams.

@tommyho74 I live in this neighborhood, she and I are not rich... so you assume because she has an suv, that makes a person not poor? Barbara has been very kind to have my family over for tea, and she has vacant properties all up and down her street. She is working hard to unify the remaining families, and help improve things. Please dont assume, or cast judgement unless you have facts. Oh, and I have friends that have Mercedes (used & from auction) does that make them rich?

The real problem is the US justice system that needs drastic reform to reduce the costs and insane penalties being inflicted on ordinary people.
