but we begin with an animated film which deals with events surrounding the fall of the burden wall which of course started to crumble with the monday demonstrations in leipzig exactly 30 years ago fritzy a revolutionary tale is based on a book by hannah shops who felt compelled to write it when she discovered that children today seem to know little about the events of recent german history. as one doesn't this doesn't seem that soon. east germany in 1912 year old fritzy agrees to take care of her best friend sophie's little dog sputnik forces his family is on summer vacation in hungary. so nice. but after a vacation sophie doesn't come back to school her family along with thousands of others have fled east germany taking refuge in the west german embassy. to have been determined to find sophie and reunite her with sputnik fritzy finds herself at

the st nicholas church unlike the site of weekly peaceful protests against the east german government the gospel songs. as you put it she is confronted with the monday prayers and monday demonstrations in leipsic she experiences these peaceful people who want to change something in their country and she experiences this violence of the state against these peaceful protesters. mention him hundreds and then walked out sophie's family are nationally frightened for their daughter's safety but she convinces them to join the next march on october 9th 1989 it will be the 1st mass demonstration against the regime there a turning point in the peaceful revolution. the directors believe their historical tale has an important lesson for today and scioto noire there are many movements these days protectionists the anti islamic movement which have misappropriated and misuse. the same slogans from back then i find this unconscionable it's important

that we show people what the peaceful revolution was really at. what is a big cornishman how come there was. historically accurate and rich with period details pretty is a moving story about the ordinary people whose courage changed the world. of the movie is here with us now do you think this is just for small children. no i think it's i mean it's definitely targeting small kids particularly actually this generation of children here in germany who've grown up in the united germany and really for them the fall the wall is probably as distant as the middle ages i mean it's so far in the past for these kids but this film i think is really compelling about it is that it tells a story the monday monday demonstrations of the of the peaceful revolution but does

so in a way that even very very small children can understand it but it's so loving in its details i mean the directors ones from west germany one grew up in the east think it all the details right i mean i was talking to some east german friends and they were amazed that every single detail of the way that we the people looked the clothing the way the hair despairs even the television sets or everything it's always it's exactly right so it does give an amazing picture of the world back then surely germans do know their own history. i think you'd be surprised i mean the do the writer of the book this film is based on was inspired to write it because she was amazed at how little germans double their own history especially young young germans i mean there are surveys that show that many young germans don't even know that their country was divided and some even think that it was divided it wasn't divided east to west but north to south korea and as one of the directors pointed out there's. also not even just young germans but the there's

a far growing far right political force in germany that are misusing that history taking the same slogans that were peaceful slogans of we are the people just in a split and using them for their own messages of anti immigration or racist races messages that i think any of those people should take a look at a movie like this ok is it something for non germans as well yeah i think so i mean as i say it's for very young young children but the. details of this film the historical details of this film are really a lesson for anyone to give an idea of what the world look like in east germany that i know what i really like is how balance it is i mean for family in this film are not activists against the regime they're like so many east germans at the time are sort of keeping their heads down and hoping things pass over and only when they see there is no other way that they do they start to go on the streets and protest and start a revolution to really change the world ok thank you very much hopefully also an uplifting film bearing monologue of german history is the thank you. now it's time
