this is day that we do is live from berlin a courtroom turns into a crime scene of the united nations tribunals for the former yugoslavia the home of bosnian croat general he's dead after drinking poison as judges upheld his twenty year prison sentence for war crimes also on the program. it is

a situation that we will handle u.s. president donald trump threatens north korea with new sanctions off the pyongyang test its most powerful weapon yet a missile that some say is capable of reaching the east coast of the united states . the african union and the european union meeting in ivory coast to discuss ways of dealing with the flow of refugees from africa into europe. and we visit one of the most dangerous places on earth this sleepy looking town and home to us as the third highest murder rates in the world and we look at the work being done to keep street children safe and out of the hands of the guy. i'm phil gale welcome to the program a former bosnian croat militia chiefs died after apparently swallowing poison juror in the hearing. the un's tribunals for the former yugoslavia. the contents of

a small bottle seconds after the court upheld his twenty year sentence for war crimes and crimes against humanity. slobodan project was about to go to prison for what would probably be the rest of his life the judge confirms a twenty year prison sentence and then this. i'm not a war criminal i oppose this conviction stop. confusion at first and as the judge moves on to the next case calls come from within the court i have taken points. to ok. we suspend the. spent pleas to curtains later it became clear that died from the effects of the. nowhere was

the war crimes tribunal more closely followed than the town of muster divided during the war years and best known for its destroyed and now rebuilt starry bridge one prominent pro at war veteran had this to say about the tribunals and projects suicide but as. we do the same it would be hard to serve time in prison while people are mocking you. this verdict will not lead to reconciliation in bosnia and herzegovina as for the hague court it should be accused of being a joint criminal enterprise itself. others held in camps during the war saw some justice in the verdicts. they did those things it's bad that they were sentenced for a war crime. what all of us who had been in camps expected at least the confirmation that this was a criminal enterprise. the tribunal may have finished its work but reconciliation

is clearly still some way away. we'll have more coverage of this story a little later in the program including an interview with a spokesperson for the tribe you know moving on two of the stories more than eighty african and european leaders are meeting in ivory coast to promote stability and more jobs for africa's young and rapidly growing population tackling the root causes of migration is the top priority and even more so after reports of the harsh treatment and exploitation of migrants who make their way to transit countries in northern africa open to reach europe ivory coast is one of those countries now seeing hundreds of people giving up their dream and returning home. great day these two can spell the beginning of a new life and missionaries all had wanted to try his luck in europe but halfway into his journey into his ear he gave up and returned home to ivory coast international organization for migration gave him a small amount of start up money for his chicken farm. fish should be more of these

initiatives to stop young people leaving africa that's his message to the heads of government reason just a few kilometers away. but like to see them spending more money on young people there are so many unemployed young people many of them are highly qualified and have plans and ideas something has to change. the topic of migration is high on the agenda at the african and european union summit german chancellor angela merkel said the issue is tied to the fight against people trafficking. in recent weeks there have been shocking reports from libya detailing how african migrants have been sold as slaves. in a highly emotional element to the issue so i think there is a common interest in stopping illegal migration and instead offering legal ways for

people from africa to be educated and study in europe africa. humanitarian critics say there are far too few legal possibilities for migrants but most n.g.o.s are excluded from discussions at the summit an alternative summit for n.g.o.s was cancelled by the ivory coast security services without reason. khadija khanate was one of the organizers she thinks the official summit is undemocratic. him when they will then they did something like this is good for the governments but not for the people here i really don't think that they concerns will be heard at the summit. even these young artists are not allowed to cross the cordons they say the summit will do nothing to help them young people will continue to try their luck elsewhere as long as those in power and africa continue to ignore them. and they doubly correspondent max hoffman is at the summit she joins us now from

abidjan in ivory coast welcome box as pick up but that final point in the report how justified is the criticism we just heard that people most affected have no voice in these discussions between governments if you look at what happens with development money within investments from the european union in africa of course this concern is valid because often what happens is that corruption in africa gets in the way that the money they get is not effectively used and that of course is a problem here on the continent and that's why you have the highest youth unemployment worldwide that's the big concern that this will continue although both african union and european union have emphasized this is a new start and things will change a cynic would look at this and say well it has taken arrival of millions of africans on europe's front door for europe to suddenly become so interested in africa as you. yeah that's exactly the question i put to the

commission president jiang through a junker on monday and he thought about the answer while he said of course you know without the migration crisis this wouldn't have the same urgency for the europeans but through this urgency many europeans many european countries have realized how important it is to invest in africa to try get to get the economies here on this continent up to speed because of what is going to happen in the future the demographics predict that by two thousand one hundred the african population will have quadrupled and if the economies can't keep pace with that then you will have even more people looking towards the north looking towards the north to make an escape to europe because they just can't fulfill their dream they don't see a future for themselves here in africa it's interesting just listening to what you're saying a it's you have to have a certain degree of sympathy i think for the european countries how do they encourage african countries to develop their industries and keep their people at

home without being accused of effectively colonizing them. well the thinking has evolved over the last two years i mean what you had a couple decades ago is just sure development money being sunk into different projects trying to tell the africans what to do with it of course conditions attached to the money very important even the african n.g.o.s say the same thing now the german approach at least from the european union is now try to have certain measures that help the economy invest in certain businesses try to get them up to speed independently of the governments germans are trying to look into that part of the help also the european investment bank although the criteria is are unclear but you can say at least that they're the european side is an awareness that you have to be very careful how and where you spend that money without what you say you know trying to colonize or recall in the eyes any countries and so wet of the african union as of government almost at a welcoming these these talks they want this this development all of that saying

well we you know we can do this ourselves. or what the africans really want is to be equal to you have eyed talks here and for them for the first time that you really feel like the european union is serious about business because they want to do something about the migration crisis so in a way although it's horrible to say this is a trump card you know in the hands of of the african countries because they can say if you want to help you'll have to do something about our countries you'll have to help us because border control alone will not do the trick there will be more and more people trying to come up north but of course the europeans on the other side and facades the africans have to do their homework as well so you have the old front lines also africans what money the europeans want migration control but what they're trying to fix here is have a stronger call partition and just put this on a new basis that's hoffman and ivory coast found here.

this data we know is live from the balance are still to come at might not look like it but this town in honduras has the first highest murder rate in the world look at the work being done to keep street children safe and out of the hands of the gods. a unique i say to say about britain they set to cough up on the press that bill and it looks like they'll be paying a bit more than three so may the prime minister intended that's right fair i think you are your man the first it was no bail then in that florence speech in september she said twenty billion euros now it could be double that and that's to cover britain's long term financial commitments made to the european union we're talking things like investment programs infrastructure projects now critics are accusing theresa may of selling the u.k. short a settlement could help get talks about future relations and trade under way newspaper reports of the two sides have reached an agreement in principle for the u.k. to pay between forty five and fifty five billion euros in a bragg's a bill to the e.u.

the payment has been a sticking point in the recently stalled negotiations led on the british side by briggs it minister david davis the e.u. was demanding sixty billion euros from the u.k. as a kind of tap to be settled before brags that a collection of budget commitments and pension promises expected from the u.k. through the year two thousand and twenty the e.u. has vowed not to move forward until that bill is settled the new offer has been expected in recent days the u.k. needs to move beyond the divorce phase of talks before it can negotiate a future trade pact with the bloc a critical issue for its post breaks economy the possibility of leaving without a deal is widely viewed as an economic worst case scenario. chief negotiator for break that michel barnier said he was hopeful a deal could be reached before a december council meeting. recover your we're working hard on these issues so that i can say to the european council on behalf of the european commission did a few days time we have reached

a sufficient level of progress for the european council to decide to move on to the second stage of negotiating a future relationship. through negotiation that effort to hold us to other stumbling blocks remain in the divorce phase of negotiations among them the border between ireland and post briggs u.k. . the us economy continues to pick up pace the government's just posted a three point three percent rise for last quarter that's the largest expansion in three years and despite the nation being hit by two big hurricanes and business investment is up and a strengthening economy would warrant continued interest rate increases but analysts have slashed fourth quarter growth estimates due to a slowdown in consumer spending and sluggish wage growth. meanwhile that rapidly swelling bitcoin bubble could be set to burst in spectacular fashion the crypto currency is skyrocketing at the moment slamming through the ten

thousand dollar barrier just hours ago now at eleven thousand dollars there's been a flurry of crypto hedge fund launches and futures trading platforms boosting its value with the prospect of the controversial currency crossing over into the financial mainstream will be interesting to see if and when it does some bank bosses call it fraud the lenders could be made redundant by the currency as it bypasses then using them as middlemen rather using instead block chaining technology as an online. right now this is one security check with passengers won't have to take their shoes off customs at brussels national airport now has a new tool to combat smuggling and fraud an x. ray scan of that and they can analyze the contents of an aircraft from the outside just by driving around it. this small van is jam packed with technology that allows it to take a close up on what planes like this executive jet carrying its size and mobility

make it easy for customs officers and operations at brussels airport. you know this new scanner allows us to inspect the plane in detail from the outside that insures about the quality and efficiency of checks without hindering the efficiency of the airport operations he just is a business owner of the new scanner used as reflected x. ray imaging to look at it and he smuggled products or explosives on board it used to take an hour for a plane to clear customs in brussels with seven hundred movements a day that pose problems now it only takes ten minutes. that. this is a huge priority because fraud is not good for the economy. certainly but certainly also because we've already found out by example that the funding of terrorist organizations for instance comes partly from drugs trafficking. i think that all of the news going to cost one point two million euros funded mostly by the

european union's anti fraud office. back over to phil now returning to our top story a former bosnian croat general at the u.n. tribunal for the former yugoslavia has killed himself in court yes now a little earlier i spoke to a vest that. she's director of documentary civil society organizations zagreb that's been tracking war crimes cases related to events in the former yugoslavia i began by asking her if she saw slobbered and probably it is probably suicide as an act of defiance and. refusal to accept responsibility for his crimes it is a very sad. act in the church to accept responsibility for crimes in bosnia and herzegovina in master starlight's threaten to kill you or on the terror being committed no doubt and he and others have been called individual accountable for them now your organization works on developing dialogue in the

regime as a way to come to terms with the horrors of the yugoslav war difficult as that be. it's quite a challenge in situation in which political responsibility torvald have been done in force between ninety one and two thousand and one have not yet been fully established and even old was helpful in establishing facts. beyond a reasonable doubt but there is far more in this challenge and he said that responsibility. think to be shared between different countries and leaderships most of the leaders who have led countries in ninety one then boards could start at like the board and last but i knew it was months have passed a very in meantime and this legacy of murder of more than one hundred thirty thousand killed people and many still missing still remains with us it's

particularly tragic isn't it because there are no clear sort of good guys and bad guys if i can put it that way in this. still regarded as a hero in some parts. unfortunately yes all those surely he has the biggest share of responsibility but these debt then ease also responsibility linked to the tranny george mine and then president of gracious smaller but significant and there is also some responsibility of leaders of bosnia-herzegovina and cost of war so is there in this complex situation when you had aggression but then also some elements of civil war it is not easy to cope to our floor i societies with all of what happened and weak teams and survivors are too often left out there the doubt support and the doubt proper acknowledgment of

the suffering so they walk around tribunals has now closed after twenty five years delivered its final vote extra day has it delivered justice to the victims of the your beloved or briefly if you would mind eat here deliver justice to some but many more are still expecting it for our prosecution at home because crimes are prosecuted in other postings the countries in croatia bosnia-herzegovina sort of be in montenegro and there isa huge question of political responsibility specially for it but asian victims which have not been settled yet and have not been set up properly that's not our search thank you. our next report takes us to one of the most dangerous places on earth plagued by gangs and drug violence the town of san pedro sula in honduras as the third highest murder rate in the world there's little hope for the many children abandoned to the streets and that's where

the charity tourney to linda a stepped up. across an invisible border this is the stomping ground a violent youth gangs people from the safer or more well off quarters of san pedro sula do not come here on their own accord. this area is called. meaning beautiful small hill visiting reporters have to announce their arrival or they risk not making it out again. in this neighborhood courtyard a few locals take care of homeless children most of the youth here are neglected and have joined gangs despite the neighborhood support many of the children will come of age in a world of drugs and violence. she rose and be allowed to house. when the boys are sent into another quarter or that boss or not many of them survive. they don't know anyone there they don't know how to get out of harm's way and. in

those situations. only about twenty five percent of them survive into zero percent as well the. street children in honduras number in the hundreds of thousands they have no support from their families and have few opportunities that makes them easy prey for gangs few homeless children can escape their influence unless they get placed in one of the best youth charity programs in the country. fourteen year old alex moyer is one of those lucky ones. his father left home when he was a young boy but he's been more scarred by the night a drug lord broke into his family's house. my mother jumped up and the gangster said i'll show you why i'm here. then he took out his pistol and shot my mother in the heart i ran away to get help. at quarter to five in the morning the youth camp slowly comes to life it's time to

wash brush teeth make the beds and help prepare breakfast this is early and eight organization whose name roughly translates to human action each of the seventy boys here has daily chores. perhaps it's the structure that's the key to the project's unlikely success setting boundaries for children who weren't raised with any they've been beaten banished sold to child pornography rings for one hundred euros or abandoned by parents who decided to leave for the us on a moment's notice. one of the boys is an eleven year old who the fire brigade found in a trash bin when he was a baby for each of the seventy boys there's a tragic story. the fact that these years can play football together is something of a miracle. on

the streets you're always hungry sometimes the boss gives you a job and if you mess up you get beaten and kicked to the screen that you can't take it anymore yeah. and some kids even get killed. in. an hour and a half away from san pedro sula is the alley this camp in a neighboring state school because of the quality care and extra tutoring when needed almost all are able to finish school. the best students go on to study at university. computer science is one of the courses at the foundation. the children here are being prepared for a better life. since. at first i was pretty nervous that i might damage the computer. before now i've never used one work in.

the alley foundation with established by a german entrepreneur in one thousand nine hundred four the property includes workshops classrooms living quarters and a clinic that's currently under construction almost all of it is financed through donations the boys can be trained as carpenters or car mechanics those who complete the courses are almost certain to find work. out that you're going to have. on a trip through the province the foundation's director marvin have you lopez is on his guard because the gangs are stronger in the countryside communities like these are common many people live in corrugated iron shacks without electricity or running water. lopez says the majority of the street kids come from illegal settlements like these just like lopez himself the aid organization is based on mutual respect

the views are aware that the teachers speak from experience. back at the youth camp prayers before dinner there are occasional fights and sometimes one of the boys is sent back to the streets if he stepped out of line too often but that's the exception. the life in the us your money or the main problem is the breakdown of the family in the complete absence of state and social programs that leads to massive problems in society and on tourists it's almost impossible to have a healthy childhood being at the one on the good. alex who saw his mother shot dead enjoys playing music and making new friends he slowly getting over his fears and might marry he says he feels like he's been able to start life all over again. on the pony if everything goes well i might even be able to study. i would really have liked my mother to have seen this at the show her that i never gave up hope she can see all of this from

heaven genital. rescuing seventy years out of hundreds of thousands is just a drop in the ocean. but the alley foundation has given these former street children a chance to become self confident happy and hopeful. now if you think jumping out of a plane is breathtaking how about jumping into a wall in mid-air well that's exactly what a couple of wing suit flyers have been doing there with the swiss alps possibly for the first time ever word of warning if you don't like heights you should look who i know please don't try this in zero. zero zero. two french daredevil sleep from one of europe's highest peaks. switzerland from

experiences and the trade has her facing up to what they've done in a country that's just beginning to deal with its violent past columbia no graceful grieving in forty five minutes. i'm a mother like two billion other mothers around the world i have one wish the best for my child. but in a society in which breastfeeding is often frowned upon and i know it's well for me that abound with profits is more important than my baby's well being how do i know how to make the right decision. starting december ninth on d. w. . they now look like. i know what we think. and soon they'll even know how we feel. well i'm not a real person i'm still just

a piece of software. scientists around the world are working to measure our emotions. hopefully i can be a helpful piece assaulted. a virtual person as a therapist or a robotic as a teacher neither would have human empathy. what does a machine need to do to create an. but the in a medical context where i disclose more information to a person or to computer in this case algorithms instead of feelings measuring emotion starting december sixteenth on t.w. . his date of years live from baghdad i'm frugal our top story this hour former bosnian croat general has died after apparently swallowing poison joining a hearing of the war crimes tribunal for the former yugoslavia and probably in control of the contents of

a small bottle seconds after the court upheld his twenty year sentence for war crimes and crimes against humanity. the us president donald trump says the united states will handle the latest ballistic missile test by north korea china has voiced grave concern and called for talks to resolve the issue beyond claims its latest test launches a new type of missile some experts believe it's capable of crossing the u.s. mainland and reaching the east coast. north korea triumphantly claims it has become a global nuclear power after a lull of over two months it has fired another intercontinental ballistic missile this one flew much higher than previous ones before landing in the sea of japan. state media announced the news in a special broadcast it said the launch was a complete success and that the new missile represented a giant leap forward so i don't know. pyongyang flames this

brings the whole u.s. mainland within its reach a direct challenge to president on the tramp but this time his reaction was more muted than before after meeting with his secretary of defense trump refrained this time from issuing threats. you know what we tell you to take care of it we have general most of them with us and i don't want discussion about it. it is a situation that we will handle. north korea's immediate neighbor was less restrained within minutes south korea responded by firing missiles into the sea to demonstrate its ability to strike pyongyang's launch sites the south korean president said the international community had no choice but to continue applying pressure and sanctions against the north. you know. just action does not only increase tension on the korean peninsula but gravely endangered is international

peace and security and we strongly condemn north korea's reckless behavior can you . seoul has warned the situation could spiral out of control the united nations security council will hold an emergency meeting to discuss the situation more on this from aden foster carter he's an honorary senior research fellow in sociology and modern korea leeds university in the united kingdom welcome to day w a president trump he said on the twitter that additional major sanctions will be imposed on north korea is that what we need now no not really in my view i mean no doubt they are merited north korea has been breaking international law that lists all the nuclear tests for a decade now oh but we're piling on the sanctions the sticks are in place what we don't have is the carrots or any kind of a diplomatic process i do think that it will need to come to talks and china for

sure is of that opinion so sanctions alone no not in the us so there is a meeting then an emergency meeting of the view on what options do they have. very little i mean this is really hold groundhog day aspect to this is that we seem to go through the same size motions over and over again and there is a certain impotence i mean the there will doubtless be a condom nature or a resolution the sanctions that president trump professed to presumably you know after all american ones i will have to see what comes up that but there is there is a sense of great kind but also of impotence that we know so far absent a diplomatic track no one has found a way to stop north korea particularly under its latest leader kim jong un from forging ahead with this very dangerous weapons so a given that given that we go through this cycle time and time again missile

recrimination than the next missile should we not just now say north korea is a nuclear weapon state and take it from there. in my view that is the reality. i think that facts are facts it doesn't help to them i have them on the other hand i understand the reasons why many people will state that just don't want to there is supposed to be a known perforation treaty north korea did sign it of course there are other nuclear sort of known recognized states in the world like israel india pakistan all with much more powerful nuclear arsenals but they never pretend such space never joined the n.p.t. in the first place well scripted and left so it is seen from a sort of you know county and universalistic point of view be seen as a very great blow to the global anti-nuke the effort to recognize this but facts are facts and i don't think there's any going back so somehow this conundrum will have to be faced hidden fausta carter thank you so much. right presenter

trumpet took time out from dealing with north korea to work really tweet post from a far right group in the united kingdom that purport to show violence being carried out by muslims a spokesman for britain's prime minister condemned the move saying that mr trump was wrong to post the material to it's of also drawn and online backlash in frederick a badge of honor social media to his here with more welcome so tell us about these retreats what's he been sharing so phil term present three videos that were originally posted to twitter by gyda friends and who is the deputy leader of a far right untie muslim group in the u.k. the group is called britain fest let's take a look at trump's twitter page and at some of those posts. in a moment that is so the first video it claims it shows a group of muslim extremists pushing a teenage boy off a roof and beating him to death yeah and then we have another video where it

features a bearded man destroying a statue of virgin mary and finally another video was caption says the migrant beats dutch boy on crutches so quite rafiq material there with the last one for instance showing a teenager punching another young man until you fall sort of round and kicking him several times that there have been questions about the authenticity of some things videos or indeed and particularly dot last video the one claiming to show a muslim migrant of beating up a dutchman with crutches that's media have said that that video and the caption particularly are misleading and the platform that originally posted the video they said that the perpetrator who was arrested after the video was posted he is not known to be either a muslim or a migrant now today us reporters have also addressed the question of authenticity

and they asked the white house press secretary if it matters whether the video is a fake and here is what she responded. you're focusing on the wrong thing the threat is real and that's what the president is talking about is the need for national security the need for military spending and those are very real things there's nothing fake about. so her words there people are focusing on the wrong thing when it comes to whether these videos are accurate or not so in ship piers to be saying that the end justifies the means ok so they so they used these tweets what the president trump is really tweeted them how people reacted online well it's not a surprise that the tweets have been drawing a lot of criticism on social media on both sides of the atlantic and especially in the u.k. where the videos were posted originally we have the labor party lawmaker. here tweeting donald trump is promoting the propaganda of a racist

a far right group he has invited to visit the u.k. in two thousand and eighteen should be immediately withdrawn. amaze office has said that says that the plans for the visit remain in place then on the u.s. side trams critics had they have said a lot of them have been saying that this is another example of him trying to to trigger and to to stir up hateful sentiments towards muslims some of his supporters however have also been welcoming him posting these videos fredricka budget's thank you. for. accusations of sexual harassment against harvey weinstein have now reached the cardinals of power in the u.s. congress so there is growing scrutiny not only of sexual harassment but also how difficult it is for women to make the case the picture that is emerging is of institutions where it is easy to abuse power and to keep the victims from speaking

out. everything is about sex except for sex sex is about power and it's always been about power on capitol hill says reason everything here former congressional and co yes i'm now seeing me too exposing the inconvenient truth that the lawmakers of the world's most powerful country also have a sexual harassment problem he said are you going to be good and i said yes he said if you're going to be good what's the point of you coming. and i said. he said well you flirt with me. that was me not understanding that i was being groomed or being invited to a sexual relationship everson used to be a fellow at the congressional black caucus when she was approached by a congress member she does not want to name and her case is by no means unique rebecca where was just twenty two years old when she says congressman gary miller harassed he just said my god rebecca you look just amazing really stunning today

would you mind trolling for me and at the time i was young i really didn't know what to do in that moment except to comply. and i was just trying to shake it off and regroup when i got a phone call from our washington office. saying congratulations rebecca lee don't know what you did but gary just called and said that you should have a bonus hundred fifty dollars immediately we didn't file a complaint but the women who do try faced challenges unique to congress so a sexual harassment attorney debra cuts. the law was designed in a way that is very skewed and protects the members to the disadvantage of complainants so it's a very stack's system if you have been sexually harassed you first report the incident to the office of compliance then the one who arrest not the perpetrator goes through a mandatory counseling period of thirty days which requires signing

a confidentiality agreement if you go to mediation that's at least another thirty days then a mandatory cooling off period follows before you can finally file a lawsuit or request a hearing that means the entire process of complaining takes at least ninety days and think about the victim of sexual harassment being in these small congressional offices having to see their member every day and knowing that they really have no legal recourse the unique system on capitol hill creates an environment in which congressman can easily get away with sexual harassment i didn't have the tools or the capacity complain i would've been fired just as simple as that. and congressional in terms of fellows like everson do not even have the right to go through an already convoluted process of complaining congress is slowly grappling with sexual harassment within its own ranks it has agreed that mandatory training is now necessary but changing its culture of abuse power and sexual misconduct it

will take far longer as it likely will nationwide to. i was european union and african union leaders meeting in ivory coast to discuss like right to job creation helena is here to take a look at some of the summits possible outcomes that's right you is considering a new plan to bridge that divide between member states over migration which often causes a lot of arguments between member states essentially it would determine a country's fair share of asylum seekers based on population and wealth some could be aust to offer assistance if the situation becomes critical but once migrants arrive in a country like germany what chances of settling it we met an energetic young man from guinea who's trying his luck as an entrepreneur and the language barrier is the least of his problems. a mummy suma from guinea is struggling with german tax law he's taking a special course for refugees because he wants to start his own company he arrived

in germany four years ago with nothing. when the economic situation is no good and there is no democracy in the country then you have to go where there is humanity and justice. and bats were done. guinea is one of africa's poorest countries in recent years it seemed continual political unrest in state run organizations like the post office where all mommy worked employees have gone without pay although the situation has improved due to investment from china. but twenty six year old a mommy doesn't want to wait until things improve back home he was studying economics in guinea before stepping onto a refugee boat that took him across the mediterranean sea now he's looking to sell german cars in guinea agencies like the el ok in berlin help young refugees

as they try to become self-sufficient offering management courses and mentoring programs. we're dependent on our working relationships with other institutions especially banks because of course it's hard to get financing with this target group whose loan options are limited due to their refugee status. quo. and mommy suman need start up capital it will be challenging to find even at berlin's investment bank recently established a loan program for refugees. in order for the bank to secure its investments we have to address the fact that we're dealing with people who only have a two year resident status whereas loan repayment terms are five to six years. this means we need to involve a third party a citizen to act as guarantor on the loans then we won't have any problem authorizing them. it's uncertain whether our mommies whom i will find

so you're looking to scenes from a brand new german language mr serious dock which will air on netflix on the first of december which is a kind of helps out from a culture desk it is everywhere as dark as. he is to tell us about it welcome so i'm guessing that here in germany are counting the days until they can get their hands on it certainly the netflix series absolutely and if you're into sort of a noir type drama with a supernatural twist to crime story with supernatural elements then this one is definitely for you so dark is part of continual of netflix's continual push into new international markets and so it's the first original series in german and it was created by the. da and his wife. who were behind the english film sleepless which might have seen with with jamie fox and they wanted to sort of take on the

challenge of taking a narrative over ten episodes and so this is an incredibly dense storyline a very huge cast of good german actors has to be said and let's take a quick look at it to see what the story's about. a small town with some very dark secrets the mysterious disappearance of a young boy the second in just a few weeks sparks a desperate search for answers by phone. connected families each with their own skeletons in the closet. the families don't know where the boy is but eerily we do. the mind bending story covers not just three generations but time itself. with more than seventy characters right a young freezes work is a feat of german engineering. i'm

a very structured thinker i think i like. i like gains that involve strategy it is very mathematical. the series takes place in a world where the every day is filled with omens of something about to go terribly wrong. in this one to get out of the shorter. dark deals with the dark within all of us the idea of free will and why seemingly normal people do very bad things. in. influence and fascinated with the idea of an ordinary person doing something terrible. dark is a slow burn taking it's a good time to give out answers answers we least expect. so

that looks kind of scary you should have seen it it's pretty creepy i've seen a fair bit of it yeah. well you know it's it's funny because they say statistically it's the third episode that's going to decide whether you wander off or whether you actually binge watch the entire series and i have to say that. when they brought in sort of all the supernatural and time travel elements that was when they started losing me so well i think that's. you know that's my personal taste i'm not into the supernatural but darkest certainly being tired is the german answer to a series that you've definitely heard of that's the american netflix hit stranger things which won a string of awards and and they do have a lot of similarities to magically for in slike the the cast of children a child who has disappeared in the supernatural portrayal of course of a small town in the one nine hundred eighty s. but dark really does stand out on its own after that you know it's decidedly more terrifying than this one i think a lot of very specific cultural references that will speak to german audiences will

most definitely so it'll be really interesting to see how it does internationally and if people will not get put off by the fact that it subtitled so i'm really i'm substituting that you said about the three episodes because i want a story which the series has. i decided yeah i'm not interested so you talked about binge watching. netflix is change not just the way we watch t.v. but also raise the bar in terms of quality and germany not often noted for its for its because of its television is. it's trying you know it's trying to yeah it is catching up definitely that's a good way of putting it i mean i think i think it's trying very hard this series is very slick very sophisticated story very well shot using a lot of cool music very much like other netflix hits so we are seeing a wave of german t.v. series that are they're trying to get into that high end category of television that we've seen come out of the u.s. and scandinavia. amazon actually beat netflix to the plate in germany because its

first series came out in march it's called you are wanted written and directed try my ts striker for whom i also played the lead role now that one did pretty well and they are actually currently filming a second season but i think that the best one we've seen so far is the berlin released on sky back in october it's the most expensive german series ever cost nearly forty million euros. already two seasons two full seasons available and it's this period drama based in berlin at the end of the weimar republic so you know historic obviously really creates an atmosphere amazing sets it's been sold to sixty countries already and already showing in the u.k. as you possibly know and it's being tipped to rival the really big name titles like like breaking bad and down to robbie which of course puts it under an amazing amount of pressure i mean you know it's the germans have a particular way of approaching a story a very interesting that now is out there and we'll see how it does run if it's up
