talk about it. and in the latest episode of the germans our intrepid reporter rachel stewart takes it all off to the grave. well his aim was to portray women in a different way and he said he felt responsible for freeing them from ideas of eternal youth and perfection. master of the cinematic image in the supermodel era and in so doing helped redefine fashion photography and beauty standards over the course of his 5 decade long career he captured everyone from kate moss to the climate activists. most recently and his legacy will inspire for generations. hand. and yet beautiful in the 1990 s. photos like these helped. him to see.

when they cemented the reputation of the artist behind them. was one of the world's leading photographers he hated superficial photos he believed an image should show a person's not personality. they have developed a technology. with which you can remove every spark of life a person may have had. that was visible in their face things that are actually positive because it can all be removed these days you can reduce any person to 0. i wanted to resist. i believe that if you have the courage to be yourself then you are beautiful. tina turner penelope cruz brad pitt and richard gere just a few of the big names in show business who have. 2017 a retrospective at munich's showed more than 2. 100 of lynn banks most iconic

created over decades the exhibition often insights into didn't bags methodology. i can't imagine taking photos without telling a story. otherwise you got a girl standing this way one time like this like that and more positions until you've fallen asleep. it's so boring. it's hard because you don't know what to do with it. banks unique gaze revolutionized fashion photography he said he didn't care whether people regarded his pictures as not for him they would just photos and that was enough. an artist who leaves a great void in deeds to echo his family's words and may he rest in peace. well on now to german director on fire and so far his legacy is one of wrestling with complex political debates both past and present and future he's best known for his

prize winning documentaries on subjects ranging from near nazi violence to terrorism and his latest project is both research and theater in one and a year after its premiere here in berlin let the money which future is headed abroad. it's a bit. of the feel good science is pretty cool because you know i have to stand. up to the. side for the number of people cut jobs and so forth but i don't do you imagine the cult. called. the conflict.

scenes there from the production of let them eat money which future which will be staged in seoul later this month thanks to the go to institute an on his file has joined me in the studio welcome and thank you for joining us hello it's a very dark vision of europe that i see there set 10 years in the future everything's coming apart at the scenes italy has left the the union is this where you think see things going in europe given the events we have today. well it's based on as you said in the beginning on the research work we spoke with a lot of scientists and the idea was not on its show the dark side of the development but also to look at the chances of the crisis so we will have a basic income. unconditional basic income in 192028 that's one of the scenarios it's one of those scenarios and so it's both

it's on one hand on the one hand side apocalyptic but on the other hand we grab the chances and say ok even if europe is falling apart apart we could do something what nobody would expect which could happen so curiosity and surprise in the brain condition of basic income of course not being the answer either which is why it is it's not the end so very heavy it's a challenge to think about it how we will need it home with how much money and can we pay for it who pays for it and. it's a dream but it could come true you know you mentioned the genesis of this play out because it was a participative approach where you conducted all these workshops and and consulted scientists and economists and people what were you trying to achieve with with that process. well we meet a lot of people in the audience who always say well science is very far away and

our is another planet and we thought we have to bring it together because scientists have a lot of 5 years but in the process of participation the audience can change it can develop it can develop stories and their own ideas and dreams and so be brought them together. scientists economists people who deal signed his deal with the climate crisis for example and get it looked into the future looked 10 years later the only condition was we set up a crisis economic crisis in 2026 and said ok let's look at it who is accountable for it so what can we do to day that's what was the big idea was not to delve into a dark future but the the main question is what can we do today to prevent a future which is too dark so we can do a lot and that could be the starting point of the play and also for the debates

afterwards are very known for putting these years of meticulous research into your films and for being fascinated with the past for instance one of your pet things was the red army faction chapter of germany have a left wing terrorist group that was active in the seventy's and eighty's you devoted 2 films to this one documentary the black box the idea and the drama if not author who there's. there's a close of the r.a.f. radicalism in this new play and there's obviously a lot of here in these books you operate is the point of departure for your own. people here has for me 2 different layers a level it could just paralyze you because i'm so much afraid i can't do anything but it also can push it to another layer and i think i am. it was my own fear about the development when i look outside and as see ok we don't have rain so with that we are already in the middle of the climate change i use my own fear and push it

into new ideas and projects not only in a close circle of arts is new york times called it and then grossing drama that skillfully avoids preaching or propagandizing congratulations on his file and let them eat eat money which future will be coming soon to seoul korea thank you very much we wish you the best that the further journey on this plane every curious about it. has a great already set and we have will have 1800 people who will join us hopefully to visit you beach in the arts and clapping with yeah ok thank you thank you very much for joining me. and finally before we go we're going to strip things down to the bare essentials because in her and lightning series meet the germans rachel stewart has taken it upon herself to go where many an ex-pat has hesitated to go namely into a german sauna where perhaps unsurprisingly there are a lot of rooms. it's 90 degrees celsius i'm sitting in
