Screening of "Ecumenopolis: City Without Limits"

“If cities are a reflection of the society, what can we say about ourselves by looking at Istanbul? What kind of city are we leaving behind for future generations? Ecological limits have been surpassed. Economic limits have been surpassed. Population limits have been surpassed. Social cohesion has been lost. Here is the picture of neoliberal urbanism: Ecumenopolis.”
 
The documentary by Imre Azem tells the story of Istanbul and other Mega-Cities on a neo-liberal course to destruction. It follows the story of a migrant family on their on-going struggle for housing rights.
 
To address these important issues the Greens/ EFA and the Heinrich Böll Foundation invite yoo to the screening of "Ecumenopolis: City Without Limits", followed by a discussion. You can already check out the trailer of the movie here.
