AKP'nin 12 yıllık iktidarında yürüttüğü ve büyük bir gümbürtüyle çökmesi
kaçınılmaz olan neoliberal politikalar ve inşaat odaklı ekonomik büyüme
stratejisi, bir yandan milyonlarca insanın yaşadığı mahalleleri yabancı ve yerli
sermayenin birer yatırım aracına dönüştürürken diğer yandan da kentlerimizin,
ormanlarımızın, sularımızın, genel olarak yaşam alanlarımızın talanına neden
oluyor.

The short documentary explores how the current economic program has turned
neighbourhoods into investment tools of foreign and domestic capital as well as
plundering cities, forests, water and living spaces in general, and stamps all
workers’ organising as a threat.
