Sandwiched between the wealth of a banking city and the remains of the former Jewish cemetery lies the home of the underdogs: the illegalised people, the immigrants, the criminalised, the artists and the petty thieves. The neighbourhood also thrives on brothels, erotic bars and addictions of all kinds. Occasionally, the "big players" in the business come visit, those who have become rich with gambling and speculation.
Author Esther Dischereit has placed two characters into this panorama. A policeman describing the alleged reality of this neighbourhood in all its harshness. And a café owner confronted with the mechanisms of gentrification. If the investor can "buy" this man, then displacing the residents should no longer be a problem. A predominantly migrant neighbourhood literally faces the Moloch that is swallowing it up. Huge construction fences herald it. People are watching, joining in. The game has long since begun. In between, we hear the sirens of police cars as they take someone away again. A haunting text about the desire for profit and the danger of losing everything.
