St. Pauli melancholisch – im Amüsierviertel wird saniert 1972

Directed by Monika Schlecht

Hamburg’s most popular neighborhood is undergoing redevelopment. The first blocks of houses have already been demolished, and the demolition crews are pressing on relentlessly. Along with the buildings, some of St. Pauli’s long-time residents will also have to leave. The film also tells the story of the tradespeople, who are likely to be the hardest hit by the modernization.
