- Synopsis
- 20 years after the German reunification, the largest urban renewal project in Europe has almost been completed. In the Prenzlauer Berg district of Berlin, one of the last old houses in the area is being renovated: the block of flats in the Lychenerstr. 64. Over a period of two years, the documentary follows the residents and the house through the process of transformation from substandard to standardised living. Lychener 64 is a film about everyday life and changes caused by the process of gentrification. To which degree is it possible to preserve your own space in a world that is increasingly globalised and normed?
