Eine besonders scheußliche Fratze des Kapitalismus zeigt sich mitunter bei Immobilienmaklern. Andreas Wilckes Dokumentarfilm Die Stadt als Beute ( Start 8. September ) führt ein paar Exemplare vor. Sie jubeln über „traumhafte Potenziale“ und lachen sich scheckig über die Anstrengungen von „querulantischen Altmietern“ und politischen Aktivisten, sich gegen die Vertreibung einkommensschwacher Menschen aus ihren Wohnungen zu wehren. Vier Jahre lang hat der Regisseur Jagdszenen aus einer Boombranche beobachtet. Er zeigt Bauarbeiter beim Einhämmern auf Altbauwände, schwäbische und amerikanische Wohnungskaufinteressenten auf Besichtigungstour und von Lärm und Schmutz geplagte Mieter. Er lässt Politiker wie den jetzigen Berliner Regierenden Bürgermeister Michael Müller beschwichtigende Worte sprechen und einen Weißenseer Wirt darüber zürnen, dass der „Urberliner“ verjagt worden sei.
Am eindringlichsten ist der Film dann, wenn die Betongoldgräber selbst zu Wort kommen – Makler und Investoren, die in groteskem Werbedeutsch von der Strahlkraft Berlins schwärmen und davon, dass die Stadt auf die Jugend der Welt eine Anziehungskraft habe, wie das Swinging London der späten Sechziger Jahre. Dabei reiht Wilckes Dokumentation die Klagen der Boomverlierer und den Jubel der Boomgewinnler über die Gentrifizierung der deutschen Hauptstadt kommentarlos und lakonisch aneinander.
In der einst swingenden Boomstadt London übrigens hat gerade eine Studie der „London School of Economics und Political Science“ enthüllt, dass in Nobelvierteln wie Chelsea die Superreichen von den Monsterreichen vertrieben werden. Sehr reiche Menschen in Londons exklusivsten Wohnanlagen müssten plötzlich feststellen, dass sie aus ihren Elite-Wohngegenden herausgedrängt würden, verkündet Luna Glucksberg, eine der Autorinnen der Studie. „Unsere Forschungen belegen, dass sich auch sehr wohlhabende Menschen absolut machtlos fühlen, wenn der Immobilienmarkt den Charakter ihrer Wohngegend verändert.“ Für die noch nicht verjagten urberlinerischen Altmieter in Neukölln oder Weißensee ein schwacher Trost.
