99 HOMES....when just need 1 to get your family under
There's no safer place like home but what if you about to lose it? What if your own space, the one that protects and let you rise your family is taken from you? What would feel like to lose everything? because even more important than your values is the place where so many memories were built and let you safe them. This is "99 Homes" (2015), a movie that is more a recent tale about recent events. This is only 2010, 5 years ago, when America and the rest of the world were struggling after the economical crisis of 2008, that affect millions of families, leading them to lose their home against banks taking over them when the lack of jobs and increase in mortgage interests turn the market into a shark tank.This scar still feels fresh as we haven't forget yet what we've been trough to get to now and build back our economy and get financial stable after months of debt and bills. So when we sit to watch the story of so many others losing the most precious and sacred core of their family can't feel but moral guilty about this path that so many built and how others took advantage to survive and make business from it.
How did you or would you feel if one day you wake up to realize that someone ese own your property. You are trespassing. you are breaking the law and you need to leave, with only 2 minutes to pick whatever you can and be a homeless. This is the story of Mr. Nash, a young man, taking care of his mom and his son, jobless and now homeless. We are about to witness a story of survival. A terrific tale of two characters facing two sides of moral complementing each other as ying yang with an intense script, serving as a modern economic parable, a heart pounding score and powerful performances. When you lose your job, the less you realize is that in between all the upcoming debts and sacrifices, a new life will show up as part of the increase in rates and business of others behind the face of a bank. Corporations start to fight over thousands of houses that are facing increase in rate and interests making their owners hard to keep up with mortgage. Then as a real state, when the market is close due to the economy and can't sale more houses to private, a game changer comes turning to sale them to others, bank, government, and corporations that are willing to pay for them as an investment for the future to come and a new market able to pay for them or just make the best of it.
But any owner won't know that. When you fight against them all what matters and you can see is the law, and law is supposed to rule but in desperate times, desperate measures either ways, for them to push the government to move faster with a lack of evidence or prove to close deals and defenseless workers and families and for these to find a way to survive through the crisis and get their families bak to a safe place and put food in their mouth. Mr. Nash, as any family man is only concerned about his family and bring the best for them. So when they need to move to a motel while figuring out the next step and being humiliated while kicked out from their home, losing personal properties and moving away from they friends, opportunities arise, sometimes from where less expected. That way, he find him working for the same people that took everything from him. But he has experience and more than that, courage and a will to help his family. And soon he realices that solution is in front of him, and in a very easy way, but everything has a price and nothing is for free, the moral charge that comes with it might be harder to deal than his own circumstances.
At beginning, it seems easy, just construction work is needed, but soon things go deeper as he keeps doing a good job and winning his new boss trust. And thats the second character worth to follow. The survivor. The new boss and business taking advantage of this new market while the rest is in crisis and sinking in the economy, he founds the way to survive but doing it using others. As he describes, America was built for fighters and people taking risk and survivors willing to do whatever it takes to get the american dream, no matter the price that comes with it.
For someone struggling and fighting to keep his family through difficult times, these words and example comes like to music to his ears so with that set of mind a new phase starts, he will start doing his boss job. So now the good guy turns into the dark side, and even when he's doing wrong and we can see the moral effect in him, we can judge him as he as everybody is trying to do his best for his own. Same way the other families do the same and he did when in their shoes. How far can we go to achieve our goals and what's the limit to use others to bring ourselves up and do better? Does the end justify the means? What defines when is right or wrong if we are in hard times and crisis? we act like a modern civilized society when economy and politics are stable but what about when this get out of control and balance will benefit just a few, is it right to fight against our neighbors and others like us to survive or better say to avoid being us the ones who suffer the most? And if so, that makes us the bad guys or we still good ones justified by our real motives, nothing personal against others. We just came through our last economic crisis so might be the right timing to reconsider the damage and casualties and learn from our mistakes trying to to better for the best of all or plan measures for the times to come and be aware that we are facing hard times every day from now on, and fight to keep at least one place we can call home.
