in our series baking bread it's a finish speciality that's almost as flat as a pancake and yet rather reminiscent of a don't know. but we begin with an animated film which deals with events surrounding the fall of the bird and 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 shots who felt compelled to write it when she discovered that children today seem to know little about the events of recent german history then almost 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 4 so 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. determined to find sophie and reunite her with sputnik fritzy finds herself at the st nicholas church in leipsic the site of weekly peaceful protests against the east german government. doesn't stop. 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 of them 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 and a turning point in the peaceful revolution. the directors believe their historical tale has an important lesson for today and scioto noir there are many movements

these days protectionists the anti islamic movement which have misappropriated and misused the same slogans from back then i find this. schnabel it's important that we show people what the peaceful revolution was really about. buddhism being a policeman how come it was. historically accurate and rich with period detail 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 just as the middle ages i mean it's

so far in the past for for these kids but this film i think is really compelling about is that it tells a story the monday monday demonstrations of the of the peaceful revolution but also in a way that even very very small children can understand it but it's so loving and it's in its details i mean the directors one was from west germany one grew up in the east i'm thinking 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 cold in the way the hair disappears 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 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 some even think that if 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 this is 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 and using them for their own messages of anti immigration or races races messages and 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 will like is how balance that is i mean for family in this film are not activists against the regime 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 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 by a monologue of german history is the thank you. now it's time for baking bread with your old masters better known as our europe correspondent in brussels but he's also a wizard with yeast and flour his goal is to make bread from every e.u. country and this week a rather complicated walnut take some time to finish bread that i won't try to pronounce. you make a greaser break of course with rules for right makes 125 grams or fine and 100 grams of medium right kernels with 210000000 liters of boiling water then makes 330000000 liters of water which 330 grams of rye flour plus 35 grams of rice sourdough now you should have to pre dose right prime minister i hope so i hope so very much.

in the past riot was one of the few nutritious plants that thrived in the short nordic some. 'd after 16 hours makes both toes in a bowl along with 230000000 liters of water 220 grams of rye flour 200 grams of whole wheat flour 15 grams of fresh 21 grams of salt and 20 grams of paul a mult till they form a single. 45 minutes later split the dough into 4 pieces and shape each one into a circle. for the next step you need a shot glass. finland let's more tax on our goal than any other country in europe. that's because the finns are little

2000 people. definitely not a try country i was speculating but the holes in the bread are designed to keep it's dry after cooking the loads are suspended from the ceiling on wooden poles to air this finish loath. gives you finland one was it's not just the late the bread that is full of rake holes the whole country and. there are some 188000 lakes in finland a legacy of the ice age and more than in any other e.u. country. just before you break them appears much smaller holes into your dough. finland is the most sparsely populated country in the e.u. show you what i mean with this loaf in the north there are only 2 people.

and 2 reindeer per square kilometer but our bread was invented in the relatively populous west of finland so we need this tool and a few more holes. to stick it in the other image 250 degrees celsius. then throw in some water. to create lots of steam another question for ministers to increase people is very important than it is the climate change thing in finland most things and in the sauna there are 2000000 of them one for every 3 feds even finance prisoners so what do you do out there. after 30 minutes in the oven our bread is ready. to listen and it's

a loaf as stark as the helsinki sky in winter when only. the american artist was a pioneer of abstract expressionism but lived in the shadow of her more famous husband jackson pollock work was abstract but more formalized pollock's more intuitive spontaneous but it was really only after his death in 1956 that lee crassness prodigious talent was recognised now for the 1st time in over 50 years as a major retrospective of her work here in europe in frankfurt. request not dealt with obstacles all her life obstacles also face the organizers of the exhibition the large format pictures can only be brought into place with the help of a crane. it's something that gives the curator

a few uneasy moments. it is dramatic. i mean if it even if this is the 4th time we've done this your heart really does miss a beat every time. the painting combat from 965 has survived its journey from australia it's one of the key works in the lead cross not retrospective. it's often spoken of as merely the woman behind 20th century icon jackson pollock but krasner was an exceptional artist in her own rights. to the exhibition of course it does on the one hand present president as a pioneer of abstract expressionism but she was also a woman who within the very male dominated world of abstract expressionism absolutely held her own to the difficulties faced by female artists in the 1930 s. is illustrated by the 2 edged compliment paid to her as a student by her teacher hands hoffman so good would not know.

it was good but not so successful filter of rage and self-doubt she destroyed some works on paper but later successfully incorporated them into colorful montages in the fifty's. shortly before politics death in 1956 she had begun a series of works featuring cubist figurative motives despite her grief she continued with the blacks became black and the reds rich. creative periods were followed by breaks she refused to settle on a signature style in the sixty's she began working with large format. is honest and candid i'm the guy what i particularly like about these pictures is their energy the family the colors are unusual due to crowds there is chronic insomnia hiatt she worked at night and there. artificial light so she used colors

that made that possible colors that don't look different in daylight last month in the winter times least and that's our scene. creative diverse and never boring around 70 works from the great artist spanning half a century on display at frank sheeran. and that's all for this edition many mole stories from the world also in culture can be found on our website at d.w. dot called slash culture myself and the crew here in berlin. along with 6 kilos of plastic waste and the normal catch for a telly interest from an john e. coli and his crew. these are going garbage men are doing their part every day to clean up the mediterranean sea. their goal is to help preserve the local fish stocks and create
