Switzerland, 2024, 91 min, Felix Herget, Dominik Zietlow, several languages, Aachen Premiere
Original version with english subtitles

Brunaupark, Zurich: Five residential complexes, 405 apartments. The pension fund of Credit Suisse is planning a redevelopment and has issued notices to half of the tenants. With radical clarity, Brunaupark portrays gentrification and the fight against corporate power. We are presenting the film in Abseits: Dystopia as a glimpse into the status quo. Perhaps there's no need to reach into future fictions to talk about caricature-like politics?
