He's alive. He's working hard. And he's ready for<br />

the final showdown...<br />

A dusty ranch in the blazing sun. Charles Bronson<br />

puts on his Stetson and walks out to feed the horses.<br />

Yes, this is definitely the right man in the right<br />

place. But something is wrong here. Where is the<br />

enemy? Is this really the crime-fighting vigilante we<br />

all know from Charles Bronson’s classical movies?<br />

But this is not Hollywood – this is the shocking<br />

reality of RANCHO TEXAS, captured by Pencil<br />

Quincy and Justus Pasternak in their straight<br />

forward documentary film!<br />

War has broken out in Europe’s metropolis. More and more artists, migrants and students fight<br />

against gentrification: They are attracted by affordable working class neighborhoods turning them into<br />

in-style districts – by then attractive locations for exclusive apartments and shopping malls. The effect:<br />

once genuine districts buzzing with life are transformed in dead steel and concrete facades.<br />

The culture documentary RIGHT TO THE CITY accompanies artists in different European cities such as<br />

Hamburg, Berlin, Leipzig, London and Paris examining the changes in life and work facing gentrification.<br />

How can the artists’ form of protest be pioneering for all residents to oppose the ravenous Capital<br />

Real Estate interests? Together with internationally renowned city sociologist Hartmut Häussermann<br />

the documentary shows how we can cope with one of the major challenges of 21-century cities.<br />
