and the continent of africa the stories about to go to the change makers taking their destiny you speak to their. w.c. t.v. series for. d.w. dot com or call them. i wrote a welcome to another show with me your host meghan lee from blossoming talent to no talent at all we've got a mix back on the show today here's a look at what's coming up. go west a german actress is making a name for herself on both sides of the atlantic. tone deaf why a hamburger

a male choir hits all the wrong notes. and fragile art pascal society is a talented last lower part of luxembourg. often a young girl's dreams of becoming a hollywood actress remain just that dreams but for the ugandan board actress a floor also a custom but her became a reality has not just conquered hollywood she's also landed a major role in germany's longest running t.v. crime series we caught up with her in berlin to talk about the various roles she's played so far. well you would be moved. as entertaining as that would be. because somebody has first ever hollywood role two years ago made her an instant hit with moviegoers she starred in the marvel comic book adaption captain america's

civil war but to her acting in the movie wasn't even such a big deal. for me she says i wasn't a stand what kind of character i'm supposed to portray the event almost stop acting and just become that character be that human a comic figure or whatever i just do what i'm expected to do but it was super easy to soft easy. after starring in captain america falls was also cast for the black panther superhero flick which is set in the same fantasy world that came out earlier this year once again for almost plays i o. . i should decide enough this the comic the character actually looks a bit like me when i see those pictures i always think yes it makes sense i got that role. in a role as io floor and serves as king charles bodyguard the king has the ability to transform himself into black panther. you get to the people provence to pay the

money you have to. be in the movie black panther equipped with superpowers governs and protects the imaginary african kingdom of wakanda. you are not it still be it came. out of the game. during the shooting for wrong as consumers kung fu skills came in quite handy she really enjoyed making the movie. pan's what i liked about being part of black times that was the opportunity to work alongside so many people of color that was something really special. because when you watch the movie and pay attention to the looks and the research that's gone into the film and talk to people who watch it they'll tell you well i can really sense elements of my culture in the film. for the movie they tour inspiration from a number of countries with the designs and i think lots of people are glad africa's being portrayed in such

a positive light for the. african causative. born in uganda because imber grew up in the german city of essen and a few years ago she moved to berlin with her husband and kids that's not as i like berlin it's noisy but nice. fall studied dance singing and acting in the netherlands in two thousand and one when she was in her final year of university she landed her very first movie role after that she went on to major european musicals like west side story cats and aida. in recent years she's also starred in a range of german t.v. productions like the crime series taught our. sister black and she is a benefit of jones has had seven appearances on tight art so far even though she's played a suspect a witness and a culprit the t.v. show is germany's longest running crime series and remains hugely popular to this day. and age of twenty nineteen she'll be starring as

a new year's schmidt's playing a touch or detective herself it's a role she's always wanted in the production she'll be solving a complicated crime mystery with the help of a new female colleague while dealing with a tense personal relationship because i was sees this role as a step towards making german t.v. more diverse. there's still a loss of room for diversity so i look down the line they might cause someone with a veil a black person or an individual with a disability without the need to justify it simply because they're ordinary people who are part of our society i think there's only one. successes have boosted her confidence as an actress. she's looking forward to the future. i never dreamt i get to play a tot ought to take to all that i because for foreign movies starring in marvel and d.c. productions these things just happened although i did were caught of cold but now

everything is changing rapidly and i'm being offered all these great roles so i'm up for all kinds of movies and playing a variety of different characters. like lending her voice to the lion king musical drama remake out in twenty nineteen watch out for flawless. well being on now to a brief look at other stories making headlines on the cultural scene starting with some furry friends who needed to weigh in at london zoo more on that coming up at the top of today for us. lendon suit held its annual weighing and measuring of its approximately nine hundred thousand animals not always an easy task. while the squirrel monkeys willingly cooperated. the first attempt to where the so much when tiger j.j. failed. he simply tore the bait off the scale and ate it the data obtained from the

measurements is fade into a digital system and shared with zoos around the world. is it a real rembrandt or not the cabinets in berlin is now showing around one hundred drawings all of which were made in the dutch monsters workshop. by rembrandt himself but also by his many students from the very beginning very drawings were confused with those of the great artist. the students done only cover the same topics as rembrandt but also used rembrandt's drawing style one cross or they imitated or copied i mean that's why the drawings of rembrandt students look similar to are exactly the same as. until mid november visitors can make their own style comparisons.

the static festival is currently taking place in santa cruz politico for days the streets are decorated with living statues forty individuals and twenty one groups compete each evening in the categories creativity and originality impacts and of course immobility. competition ends on saturday. the seventy men in our next report probably would never win a singing contest but that doesn't matter to them because they're attracting lots of attention anyway even though they're out of tune and have no real singing experience this men's choir performs in various locations in germany and they've developed a loyal following. the

phones on germany's call to coast. seventy men all singing out of cheer. we've realized just how much we enjoy singing but we rarely find the time to get together. so one day i was cycling to work and called my friend climates. and i told him i had an idea that starts a quiet time and can make anything happen by the time i arrived at work he was already recruiting people on facebook twenty guys got in touch with our first practice session was magical i still can't believe it works for the lord yeah a lot of us they can't believe it the worst thing that could happen is that it goes to our heads but we'll always stay true to ourselves driving him over doesn't it. was it was what these dense lacking talents they make up for with shit

passion how that's got kids in quiet has even been invited to perform in shanghai's opera house gemini's most unconventional thing is that most of the phone done german t.v. . every man oh by. this oh. shadow of their repertoire includes famous hits they always give it their best and insist them not to have britney's singing out of tune. just to say. f. you know when the concert will the choir founder says they run a tight operation. nobody speaks to disapprove of them i think the most important thing is that there's some discipline and that everyone knows that you come down and then

everything works out all right so it's always the two or three accuser times directly and every singer knows what to do everything is great just on the left as margaret. the choir is always looking for fresh new talent it's been rumored one singer bribed his way in with a couple of muffins. while alcohol always moving on to an artist who specializes in blown glass now this technique isn't to that popular among female artisans because of the physical requirements but pascal from luxembourg has added it to her repertoire and is the only one doing it professionally in her country we meet up with her now on the job . the ring seems to float. and it's a play of transparency and color. pascals dials artworks confound the

sensors. meant you can't get these floating elements in ceramics like in these objects me you can't get the metal or a word or anything else because it's all the pick glass is the only material that lets you create these article illusions at. last floating within glass how is it done. only with lots of hard work as a visit to pascal sounds like some book studio reveal. to make our glass culture within glass the artist makes the interior a piece of floating part first. it's a problem i melt all the color together and then i can blow it then i can cover it

with more glass glass when the. enemy nine hundred ninety s. after she completed her training as a glassblower pascals are all set up a studio in bad off and perfected her glass art it takes more than creative ideas it requires teamwork and timing it's a mess that make this more now we've melted this together and i can gather more glass around it i do that several times while that man has to start getting the other colors ready that will later go on top of it but if i'm wrong about the. one thousand and one could to prepare the color for the exterior. planets is heated to eleven hundred degrees celsius and it pascals out transforms the glass into a viscous moldable glob at this temperature. it glows yellow once cooled it will be transparent last up to our better than freedom if the mayor's glasses work either with a block made of wood or damage or with newspaper soaked in water and folded on the

sidelines as a puppy ever it's easier to shake the glass with it the way you want it the fact that it's back in the block of course you always get the same shape i get for my new money you have to meet him or if i buy a manipulation or. what pascal sound loves about how art is creating the desired shape during the short time the mulching grass is malleable enough to work with she has to work fast and she has to have well practiced hands to maneuver the seemingly floating inside piece to the right position inside the shell of colored carts the moment demands the utmost concentration from her and her two coworkers. don't know so many so slim not but the key to liverpool. to up to the total total total took the total to go through believe. me we've yet to get what. was playing as

a hard physically strenuous heart not many women do it pascal style is the only female grass but in luxemburg. some off if you have machine etc etc i had this you need a lot of machines that cost a lot and you have lots of expenses as you have to work with at least one person or two and since it involves so much money you have to have the funds to tide you over for a while when you start out you have to be prepared to get by on very little. pastels zeile doesn't live from her sculptures alone she also makes objects for daily use like drinking glasses and lamps and she saw some through her company songsters. she also frequently designs new objects and works of art. this is a sculpture for an exhibition and supplicant orders and it's a scorpion. and here are the colors all natural and. the whole

sculpture is in shades of brown and greens and fish because it's camouflaged and they're all ground and polished. and i think. it's glass blowing on art or craft. she sees both as parts of the creative process and one of fascinates and inspires her new each day to get it all back to you. again if you could. let me just begin with the famous just by turning out so many sculptors and objects i keep getting new ideas and they just keep developing this process is beautiful but it's never boring. right to this if you don't write it. you're at its best you're on max brings you the highlights on instagram stunning landscapes spectacular buildings and mouthwatering delicacy our reporters are

creating a senior flowers inside more now castle museum they harmonize perfectly with the paintings of flowers on display you see his collected fresh clover fronds and grasses for the installation spirit is this challenge is getting everything to look like a field of flowers that's kind of floating in the wind and that they don't just hang off to one side but look good together. and meet up with olive and as i did. his aim is to make the colors and shapes of the real flowers in the floral paintings combine to form a single piece of art. this i thought transforms the room when you have actual flowers he hands. the flowers beautiful scents through the museum muses plans to create a sea of blossoms in a different room in the museum to match the paintings of red flowers sure. many of us are going to be she doesn't hit it was important to me to have a really bright colors bits to match the painting in the bag and the others as well

. i'm curious how long these flowers will keep in these hot summer temperatures and with a stone museum am the only roofed. musician will go on to design more new floral installations until next november. and what if i might as a florist it's a real treat being free to pick whichever far as i want and not having to meet any specific requirements so what i can really say is thanks. his final artwork for now a bouquet of wild bright flowers is going to match the old floral paintings on display. eating it well there's a piece by capri element to nearby and one by yes lenski and a second one by him. the painter gabriella mentor was fascinated by the beauty of nature. this is him it's all a matter of interpretation i'd never try imitating any of these works i can often.

then do the middle of all this andreas muses spooky which passes blooms and will it's like an ephemeral piece of art. time now for something to eat and for today's cats were heading to northern italy where nearly every chef has a local dumplings and is all unary d.n.a. we learn now from a chef anton visa how to make three different kinds. fifty to know italy's northern los town lies at the foot of the alps and so on to roll the perfect place to enjoy life coaching. the family run hotel is in the heart of town this is where head chef i'm talking views are pretty much traditional italian and regional dishes like three stick on a daily to really use it or to rotate in trio. the. dumplings

used to be the farmer's main meal today they are a speciality date. you need stale white bread for the dumplings stephanie bought the hotel housekeeper pick some up every day from the local baker. that they cried at the bakery it's kind of just small chunks this is day old white bread the basis for our traditional dumplings and. the two were only in tree out with bradley only and two kinds of dumplings. one is a cheese dumpling to make it anton these are needs day old bread milk cheese eggs chives and green onions first he saw it taste the green onions in butter. gave some milk. the milk is only warmed slightly and then poured over the chunks of day old bread. just to

add the cheese john eggs. and then season to taste and lastly some plan or to bind the dough together. mix well. it's tough to say how to make the optimal dough because it depends how hard the brand is. the dough simply has to stick together. this is what the ideal doubt looks like this well it is the auditing. then both of those said for thirty minutes to absorb the flavors now for the spinach dumplings we'll name launched spinach onions and garlic butter eggs not make more snow can flower made. and of course lots of cubes of day old bread the spinach dumplings are made the same way as the cheese ones and the deal was also left to rest. afterwords it's

time to shake the dumplings and turn makes the cheese ones into long ovals and blows the spinach ones into balls. and would not come in you could also form the spinach dough into articles the shapes the only difference the dirt is always there saying. let the dumplings simmer in salted water for fifteen minutes. no it's time to make the shots up or ravioli just look like uncle guy pamphlets i will swabian or italian ravioli the difference is just that here he used a rifle because ryan was the founder the farmers generous with the palin cup home i still can't tell the shapes. the pasta joe is filled with blanche to spend it and recut a cheese then the ravioli is also placed gently into simmering water there's lots of the ravioli need to cook for three to five minutes. just enough time to dish out the spinach and cheese dumplings then the ravioli and season the two rolling in

trio with grated parmesan cheese and brown butter in this dish may be high in calories but it's also big on taste. even you can use it in summer as well as winter this dumplings filled with tiny cheese he said in the spinach dumplings here's the vegetable i think you missed as the delicate ravioli of the season with a bottle and promise and all round great text. little rolly and trio has been on the menu at hotel alarm for more than three decades. it's a dish that's loved by locals and tourists alike the taste of self to roll to remember. all right and before we go we want to let you in on the winner of this week's draw and now we have asked you to send us and photos giving us your ideas on how to beat the summer heat well get tickets to paul farmer issues like the co-op with ice cream leslie escobar in icy
