In the first weeks of the lockdown, a phenomenon emerged that was to intensify: The closer environment, suddenly becomes the hub of daily life, the parks the airy and therefore safe meeting place for people, open living rooms of the city. The Rabet district park fulfilled this function even before the pandemic, as a young man from the park tells us. For him, this is family: „You don‘t like everyone the same, but you get along.“ Even spending time here in the park doesn‘t mean the same thing to everyone.
