11:35 pm
even you know twenty two years later it still has a huge following and a big fan base and of course i want to make sure that i own a character that they already love. most of the filming was done in south africa some scenes required studio work but preference was given. real settings as much as possible instead of green screen and computer animation very few men but. now when you're. the director wanted the fantasy world to look as genuine as possible it wasn't the action scenes that were pivotal to the condor but the narrative ones especially those involving lara's relationship with her father leaves a mark i found about relationship especially when i was introduced to what they wanted to do with this film when i met the director and the produces is that the father daughter relationship is really at the core of the story and you could pull that one out and put it any sean and it will be

11:39 pm
comes clark has been working his magic for over thirty years ever since he was a child he dreamt of being a world famous magician with his own show in las vegas. he's done it all now he's on the road with his new show. this is that it was noised you always have to come up with a. i think new if you go see tina turner for example you wanted to do all the big hits but with me or david copperfield people want to see something new. from the book of them so it became i'm always on tour always on the bus and that's when i write down ideas and think about what would work and that doesn't mean currently i'm busy with a new things but i'll probably just only keep about three or before the asked like if you live. in a show house of mystery cloak wants to do more than just perform tricks she wants to tell a story as the world's fastest illusionist he must fight for a book of spells that contains the greatest magic secrets.
11:40 pm
in the south and he's in some tricks common s. but a dangerous while others look dangerous but they're harmless when the school when done well it should look easy as it's like dance or playing the piano the audience should be relaxed they should believe that i really am a magician sort of. like you. that. i'm not sure why this is still so popular the ship people are so busy online and technology is everywhere at the sword and then they come to my shows to watch someone levitate or watch something incomprehensible so. this trick earned him an award at monte carlo as famous circus festival in twenty fourteen he was the first illusionist ever to win. the finished i'm proud of the award

a magician deceived the public but when you're good you see in people's eyes it's like they're having a waking dream that they like it and that makes me happy with the goods. then comes the grand finale fifteen tricks in five minutes caused the world record in this discipline. the moment you want to reason to get toys you wonder how your eyes can be deceived like that in this first scene yet it's fascinating you look carefully and you think you should be able to figure out how it works and years of work you started out you'll never figure it out so you might as well sit back and just enjoy it that's going to. and like all great illusionists hum's cluck takes care never to reveal any of the secrets. that would be kind of boring wouldn't it in any case it never gets boring here and often living here for almost five years now and there is always something new to

discover the history of the city is extremely fascinating and you can still see this in many places we're showing you some of them this week in our series a trip back in time today will have a closer look at the wall once it's divided the city into east and west berlin even east berlin was extremely difficult for most people it was simply impossible in one thousand nine hundred nine the historical moment came the fall off the wall today little remains of it perhaps that's why the three hundred sixty degree wall panorama is so popular. only a few sections of the berlin wall remain the longest is the famous east side gallery the surviving pieces are a reminder of the border that once divided by land paving stones marked the course the berlin wall once took across the city is chapter in history is still of
11:43 pm
particular interest to tourists. i think they could be considering how historic it was like here we love the world but i think it's it stands out. to be. more precise and if it's historic to see. exactly what the three hundred sixty degree panorama. the award hopes to achieve opened in two thousand and twelve visitors are transported back to the divided city to get a taste of life back then. they're surrounded by nine hundred eighty s. berlin on a gray november day looking out from west to east berlin. music and various soundbites from the time help visitors feel how it was back then. either but. i still have goosebumps it is so hot you could never imagine it i mean you see the pictures on t.v. that this puts you right there in the middle of it i have to say i found it really fascinating step by as from saddam's fantasy and it was

11:45 pm
a part of my own experience so i didn't have to do research. to get a c.z. was born in vienna but grew up information east germany nine hundred seventy eight he was deported to west berlin and lived near the border the concrete wall was a part of his everyday life. he rebuilt his world from back then. in a computer with drawings and countless photos he took using extras as subjects. at sites creating the look of the times wasn't easy told that finding accessories to bring the era back to life is that everything from the dead lock to dating buildings to the old showing the machines we have to be consistent as a. consequence and. a return to with a visitor tower was built to house the panoramic screen which is fifty meters high
11:46 pm
and sixty meters wide. twenty fabric strips were printed and stapled together. both the logistical and financial demands were extremely high. the problematic with the panorama everything is enormous and costs a lot of money as a solo artist you never think something like this be possible by. this three hundred sixty degree panorama of the war is a tribute to this historical era the images reflect the banality of everyday life even under such bleak circumstances rather than yourself that people will leave here and say i stood right next to the berlin wall the memory will be even stronger than the real thing maybe they'll also reflect on how they did just that something like that happened to them or they'll go home and think i already do have to adjust in my life in my job and so long i think it opens up a lot of questions but maybe some answers to. the panorama is sure to bring back
