DownTown for Sale
A documentary about the loss of our neighborhoods
DownTown for Sale started with the invasion of flyers claiming “We buy your flat”.
It happened in such a massive scale that we realized that they were not buying flats, they were buying the entire neighbourhood.
This is one of the oldest neighbourhoods in Madrid, one of the few remaining in downtown. It is known as the UN of Madrid,
88 nationalities exist side-by-side there. It is famous for its political activity, associative activity and collaborative initiatives.
This is the story of
the last mohicans of a neighbourhood. They organize and fight.
They refuse to be the last generation that knows and lives in a neighbourhood.
