The Divide(2015)

What happens when the rich get richer?

The Divide is a documentary that examines wealth inequality across the modern US and UK, where the richest 0.1% control as much wealth as the bottom 90% combined. Through the interconnected stories of seven individuals navigating contemporary life, the film reveals how economic disparity shapes virtually every aspect of society—from health and crime to education and social cohesion. Inspired by Richard Wilkinson and Kate Pickett's influential book The Spirit Level, The Divide traces the hidden mechanisms that link personal struggles to systemic inequality. Rather than focusing solely on statistics, it grounds abstract economic concepts in human experience, showing how the gap between rich and poor reverberates through families, communities, and institutions. The film argues that closing this divide isn't just a moral imperative but essential to improving collective wellbeing.
