Diebsteich

SYNOPSIS

Diebsteich, a long forgotten neighborhood in the middle of Hamburg, in the district of Altona. Residential area, commercial, cemetery and a Cuban café. But the neighborhood is about to undergo major changes. The railroad company, Deutsche Bahn, has begun work on the controversial relocation of the Altona long-distance train station. A concert hall is also to find space at Diebsteich. The film tells of the concerns and resistance of the residents, who feel ignored in the development of their neighborhood, and of the Cuban café owner, whose popular neighborhood meeting place is to fall victim to the wrecking ball.
