Lawyers, real estate mafia, executors, police, mayors, secretaries, affective speculators, opportunist artists – they are all pressing on the houses from the neighborhood of highly real- estate value Rahova Uranus, wherefrom hundreds of people have been evicted and others are waiting for their turn. The evicted women and their children, together with Mihaela Drăgan, are dissecting step by step the process of losing their homes, which is at the same time a profitable business of destroying a community.
RAZZING
Rahova-Uranus area is visited by real-estate agents because of its central location. Yet the eviction phenomenon is present in every neighborhood and in all the sectors of Bucharest, but also all over Romania.
The evicted, trapped in the process of “cleaning” the city centers of poor and Roma, alongside the activists, stay in solidarity and protest permanently for their voices to be heard by those who have the duty to protect the housing right of each citizen of the country, no matter what their social status or ethnicity are.
The performance is an independent play produced by La Bomba Studios, Rahova-Uranus, with the support of tranzit.ro/București .
