SHE'S SOLD

Written by Sam Brooks

Directed by Katie Wolfe

Auckland is obsessed with property. A house is never just a house. It’s a dream, a debt, a burden, a way out - if you can ever get one.

Inside an upmarket Tāmaki Makaurau real estate office, a group of ambitious women and one demon twink are hustling hard to stay afloat. Houses are damp, buyers are needy and everyone’s in a goddamned flood zone.

None of it stops the market.

At the centre are two sisters with very different ideas about survival.

Then a clever solution appears: three problem houses, three sellers. Sell them each other’s houses and close the circle - as long as no one looks too closely at what they’re passing on.

Fast, filthy and brutally funny, SHE'S SOLD is a dark comedy about real estate, whānau, money, whenua and the moral compromises people are prepared to call “good business” in order to survive.
