The Divide tells the story of 7 individuals striving for a better life in modern day US and UK - where the top 0.1% owns as much wealth as the bottom 90%. By plotting these tales together, we uncover how virtually every aspect of our lives is controlled by one factor: the size of the gap between rich and poor.The film is inspired by "The Spirit Level" by Richard Wilkinson and Kate Pickett.

Ce film met en lumière les conséquences que le fossé qui se creuse entre riches et pauvres a sur les différentes strates de la société aux États-Unis et au Royaume-Uni.

Filmul scoate la lumină efectele decalajului tot mai mare de prosperitate dintre bogați și săraci asupra tuturor nivelurilor sociale din SUA și Regatul Unit.
