created over decades the exhibition of insights into didn't begs methodology. i can't imagine taking photos without telling a story. otherwise you've got a girl standing this way one time like this don't like that and more positions until you fall asleep. it's so boring. it's hard because you don't know what to do with it was he was. telling banks unique gaze revolutionise fashion photography he said he didn't care whether people regarded his pictures as for him they were 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 his 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 left

wing 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 both. sides firstly because you know i have to start. charging them not to because he doesn't support that i don't do you imagine not because. i think we have to come off. some. of 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 under fire 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 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 sides 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 curious a t. and certifies in the bank conditional basic income of course not being the answer either which is why it is it's not the end server i have it's it's a challenge to think about it how we will need it whole with how much money and can be paid 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

art 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 in the workshops scientists economists people who deal scientists who 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 today that's what was the big idea was not to delve into a dark future but the main question is what can we do today to prevent a future which is too dark so and 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's past 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 echoes 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. 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 i 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 arches 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 is playing every curious about it. has a great already set and we have will have 1800 people who will join us hopefully to visit us 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. it's 90 degrees celsius i'm sitting in
