'I loved the film. Company Town can fuel discussion of urban revitalization policies in cities across the country looking to high tech and the sharing economy. Is it inevitable that the future is a luxury city that caters to the new knowledge workers and tourists? Or can the city be inclusive, valuing history, long term ethnic communities, and economic diversity? One grass-roots leader in the film notes, 'While change is inevitable, how we change is not, and we can steer change in a way that reflects our values.'' Dr. Elaine Simon, Adjunct Associate Professor of Anthropology, Director of Urban Studies Program, University of Pennsylvania

'A rare look into the process of regulating the sharing economy. Balanced and focused, this documentary details the unintended consequences of Airbnb on communities and exposes the complexity of the sharing economy.' Abbey Stemler, Assistant Professor of Business Law and Ethics, Indiana University

' Company Town is a shot of political energy, just when we need it most - a valentine to the weird and wild hurly-burly of the electoral process at the grassroots level, from where true democracy springs.' David Talbot, founder of Salon, author, Season of the Witch and The Devil's Chessboard

'Politically important, wonderfully filmed, and suspenseful to the very end...Learn how the so-called sharing economy and tech industry transformed one of the world's most fascinating, progressive and quirky cities into a gentrified town dominated by billionaires.' Ruth Rosen, Professor Emerita of History, University of California - Davis

'Company Town offers a compelling look at how the sharing economy became the most heated issue in the always incendiary caldron of San Francisco politics. A local election becomes a referendum on the future of short-term rentals, and the divided city must decide whether to align itself with the tech world that is its economic life blood or to preserve its historic, affordable, and neighborly way of life.' Stephen R. Miller, Associate Professor of Law, University of Idaho

'A 'must watch' documentary...Company Town artfully peels back the shadow side of the 'sharing economy' and its billionaire beneficiaries - who pit struggling families against one another over a few square feet to live.' Chuck Collins, Senior Scholar, Institute for Policy Studies, Author, Born on Third Base: A One Percenter Makes the Case for Tackling Inequality, Bringing Wealth Home, and Committing to the Common Good

'I was thrilled by Company Town's virtuoso storytelling, its compassion, and the message that democracy can actually win the fight (sometimes!) against our corporate overlords.' Josh Kornbluth, Monologuist and Filmmaker

'Airbnb talks of sharing and of building better communities, but Company Town uncovers a reality of evictions and frayed neighborhoods. It's a tale of a 2016 city election in San Francisco, but it's also the disturbing story of how Silicon Valley money and influence is dividing cities between the haves and have-nots.' Tom Slee, Author, What's Yours is Mine: Against the Sharing Economy

'Riveting...This high minded film lets the personal stories it has uncovered speak the truth to us in a way that 'disrupts the disrupters'... The best kind of story-telling.' Steven Hill, Huffington Post, Author, Raw Deal: How the Uber Economy is Screwing American Workers

'Fascinating, wonderful, and lively.' Tim Redmond, 48 Hills
