Housemates uncovers the unique, unusual, and sometimes crazy ways Australians have made share housing work. In many streets across Australia, there will be some form of share house going on, and nearly everyone has had to share a house, flat or even bedroom at some point. Sharing a fridge or a bathroom with strangers is never easy. Each of the eight share houses has a unique way of living, but could you live in these houses?
Original concept created by Mashup Pictures. Commissioned by ABC TV, financed and supported by Screen Australia and Film Victoria.
