Australia is facing a serious housing crisis, and this problem has now become a major theme in pop culture.

澳大利亚正面临严重的住房危机，而这个问题现在已成为流行文化中的一个主要主题。

New films, books and plays have been created to explore the issues of soaring house prices, rental stress and social inequality between generations.

新的电影、书籍和戏剧已经被创作出来，用以探讨房价飙升、租金压力以及世代间社会不平等的议题。

One of these new works is a film called Birthright, which tells the story of a young couple struggling with homelessness.

In the film Birthright, a millennial couple named Jasmine and Cory are expecting a baby.

However, Cory has lost his job because his short-term contract has ended.

Jasmine is on unpaid leave from her university position.

贾丝敏正在休大学职位的无薪假。

When their rental lease finishes, they are forced to move in with Cory's baby boomer parents.

当他们的租约到期时，他们被迫搬去与柯瑞的战后婴儿潮父母同住。

The intergenerational tension that follows is both dramatic and darkly funny.
