a look. but there was so i missed it but i'm just i'm sorry. if. i'm not the minimum force. from mom or go on for some don't get it. right is going to. keep. them. from all in the documentary and the social climate in sweden we are joined from stopped by fat money she produced the mothers of recovery and as

a people the award winner also in stockholm we have had she has a visual artist whose work focuses on issues of identity and nationhood alexander across the leader who is a journalist and human rights activist she immigrated with her family to sweden as a young girl and settled and she joins us from stockholm and completing a line up from the swedish capital rashid he is a teacher and community activist whose help was key to the production of the mothers of winter be how everybody it's really good to have you here what a vision of sweden you present so. this and this going into a community telling their story allowing them to tell a story when they've already been labeled a no go zone what makes you want to do that. thanks for having me this the most awkward serious of the year. they wanted to do something from sweden that specifically funding to be. it was a little bit of

a little bit difficult to find in the film is the make up on that because we were told that it's difficult to film in the can be done after you know there is a conflict among journalists because it is possible as long as we have the martin link to be it is anything but. one place where the hardworking people are getting from different cultures and it's it's a place that you could live on home and after spending more time than i can actually i can see that it's home and i think by reza going back there more and more now because of the problem we managed to capture while in the in the film it was important to ensure that they could be gets a fair representation because in the near. incision whenever you talk about it would be if you just google when i was doing my own research and all you see is that writing burning towers and novels in

a positive story or any any simple student back a place that was important to go in and actually give the people and the police a fairer institution and a chance to show the outside world that what you see in the media isn't necessarily the full truth but i want to back up what you're saying with a comment from the film's director who sent us a video comment and this is what happened after that he had to say about why he made the film what i'm hoping for when people see this film is that they see. that it could be. a place about things happened there but good people leave they're. not in the way the western media portrayed us. just us again which is which is snuffed out is far from it so. i hope this. gives a little bit more balance. so alexander he talked about balance there before you

dive in on that i want to read this tweet from a from nasr she says i heard that ring could be as locals allowed to mind i haven't heard team to film there only because the team wasn't from sweden's public service t.v. wrinklies locals think he is biased against them can you please discuss why they feel that way and why the media is disliked by ring i wonder not specifically looking at one channel in particular but why is there this feeling of distrust coming from someone i'd like the answer from someone who's not only from there but also is a journalist can you help us understand our international audience. ok this is just has been since i was a kid and i grew up in the to be because media came out there and the interviewed us and they studied us and they filmed that like. we were like you know animals in a zoo is so exciting and they asked us very very strange questions i have to say

and then when we saw their result it was we were so sad because it always portrayed us as that are others that the strangers or the you know the immigrants and. it was it was like the very very heart breaking to read in a place in a small suburb that you really really love that and you had all her friends and everybody and and when you watched t.v. you were curtseying like it was like a big and charitable and cherry playing ghetto or something so this distrust is nothing new i think that people weren't quite right not watching this show in chicago or even in milan back in brain in belgium in that paris and different suburbs around the world that are segregated than there are who are there are. lasers where migrants and refugees live i think everybody recognizes what hat went

when and when journalists when media come and for trey asked because we are always there on the list and one of the main problems is of course i mean scenes back in the days when i was a kid the lack our diversity in the media there are almost no migrants in media there on the migrant wasn't minority forces there are no black people or people of color and no working class kids working there so it's also a matter of class and this is doing and you know all these factors so it will happen and it distrusting meeting. and so only when they are gone media. and that was the day when me and some friends of mine decided to start you know meeting and start doing things but. you have no idea the news back you back in the

day alexander we won't ask you how old you are so there is something about this documentary which really stands out and it's just the story of these months who have a day jobs they have things to do who then in the evening patrol the streets of their neighborhood it's remarkable when you first saw it what it is what did you make of that. well i have the luxury of seeing it where permeated in stockholm and i have the luxury of watching the director and fox talk about it and talk about how the making of the movie made them have to challenge her own prejudice about how certain stories are told but my first reaction was of course recognition i saw so much of my mom in these moms and i saw so much of myself in these stories that are never told in the fact that we are never really truly represented and i think latching on to what alexander said about the media the fact that we we don't trust

the media in the sense is that our story is never really told in a fair manner we never really get to dictate the conversation in which we are talked about and this is a huge part of why it's hard to trust outside media when it comes to something that's so close to your heart now i'm not i haven't grown up with stockholm so i haven't grown up where it could be but i grew up about three hours away from stockholm in a really small town and we heard stories about being could be reheard stories about no go zones well we certainly thought he had to deal with the stories that you had we heard that it was messy and that they had like drug issues and gang violence and that there are only black people there and they had taken over and we be which we did. yeah we did i mean let's criminality and who now that it's always i mean a bigger problem imo who are people that i know are out there it was abilities or

knowing it's you know the problem is every time that me to. be they've only interviewed criminal guys they never ever that's why i really want to congratulate them thank you for the supplementary. prove it because i'm so happy in this one. this arrogance that we while we never ever year or so might run women on the cover it is out of our it's a lot of them let me do that rashid i'm going to play this little clip i'd love to hear what you think about this this is a little clip of of the mothers on patrol and so we remember this is a no go zone it is in the evening i want you to look beyond the moms and their bright audience jackets and see the fight that they break up have a look. at a league a little. bit

of a muslim. you see good for them so how can we. get to see. them. live audience you did that had to do with. that but it. wasn't. oh that's mom power your mom going to break in you probably maurice is back so this is the this is the reality of brink of a rasheed so we've gone from the stereotype and it's drug zone and it's really scary to the reality of it you live in the next neighborhood along so you know what it's like what is the story that's not getting out about this area in syria well is a lot of stories actually. you know the mothers are the backbone of the community

so the best story never gets so you also the story of the strong civil society in your beloved.
