Power to Renovation: A Question of Values is a documentary that follows experts from across Europe as they explain why demolishing buildings wastes homes, jobs, energy, and history. The film starts by showing the darker side of real estate speculation, then reveals how renovation and transformation are real alternatives, and how we can change our value system through activism and direct democracy.

Every minute, a building in Europe is destroyed—not by wind, flood, or fire but by human hands. Real-estate speculators have built a system that puts profit before people and planet. And it’s not only walls and roofs that are lost! This talk exposes the hidden costs of demolition and shows why a home’s true value far exceeds its market price.
