Metzgergrün

| Spaces of Tomorrow
(BALi, KulturBahnhof Kassel)

The documentary METZGERGRÜN deals with dreams of living in the sunny city of Freiburg im Breisgau. Subtly, with powerful images and words, social inequalities and the question of human dignity are discussed in the context of gentrification. People from different milieus speak up. The film is about the residents of the socially deprived neighborhood of Metzgergrün, where cheap housing is being demolished and replaced with luxurious apartment houses, as well as an interior designer who has to satisfy the wishes of her customers, such as a shower toilet with the sound of chirping birds. A film that leaves a lasting impression, makes you angry and sad but also makes you think. (Text: Christina Bickel)
