Displace: The Battle For Dublin | movie | 2026 | Official Trailer

Filmed over four years across kitchen tables, protests, and public meetings, Displace: The Battle For Dublin tells the story of a city fighting for itself as a broken property market ruthlessly chews up its citizens for profit – pushing out communities of every kind and leaving a generation trapped in their parents’ box rooms. From evicted tenants to artists without studios, from market traders to mothers living in overcrowded accommodation, the film follows an emerging movement demanding justice, housing, and dignity. Though rooted in Dublin, the forces at work are global: a financialised property system reshaping cities everywhere, treating homes as assets and people as obstacles. Weaving through the lives of artists, residents, musicians, renters, academics, and activists, this urgent city symphony reveals an urban landscape shifting beneath their feet – and a people rediscovering their collective power, refusing to be pushed out or displaced.
