Synopsis by Carly Wray
The title of this documentary refers to a parking garage in Tel Aviv, buried six levels beneath an empty shopping mall. The structure now serves as a hiding place for hundreds of Palestinians who sneak into Israel in search of work, hoping to make money they can bring back to loved ones a few miles away. Six Floors to Hell examines the trying living conditions these workers face in their subterranean shelter, and chronicles their hardships and challenges as they attempt to build a better life for their families.
