Since non-profit housing has been abolished almost everywhere in Europe, housing is no longer considered a human right. Now the market decides where people live. As a result, a system of destroying affordable housing has also been established in Germany that is dividing our society. In Germany, especially in the big cities, more people traditionally rent than own. These people - in Berlin the figure is as high as 82% - are increasingly under threat. The causes: neoliberal policies since the turn of the millennium and the financial crisis. Comparatively good tenant protection in Germany has been increasingly watered down for the benefit of capital. Since then, it has no longer been about housing, but about investment. International capital revolves around so-called concrete gold. "Sold City", the new film in two parts by Leslie Franke and Herdolor Lorenz ("Wer rettet wen?", "Der marktgerechte Patient", "Der marktgerechte Mensch"), shows how the real estate boom in Germany came about, how those affected experience it and how we can defend ourselves.
