people. now who says films are a kind of dream sequence of sampled quotations the resulting clouds are obscure if . you are a good man. my god isn't ringback really my god do ringback you really want to know who says latest works god he looks so good look at his blue. my god isn't. how much are they i bet they're $129.00 before being male host even knows where he's going with the video he creates the soundtrack taking scraps of dialog or music gleaned from films t.v. shows pop songs and weaving them together like a composer. he's got to storyboards for his films at the same time he edits the audio tracks and he's been at it for around 3 decades. has just come new guy you're doing. in town that last. time deadline.

and tell goodlatte. and from bureau who says rather silly starts his films are getting more and more political everybody control over anybody away interesting. who was joins me now with his real voice thank you for coming in i should mention you got. an expression currently on here and it goes till next every so anybody interested they should look at our website for more details now you feature in all your videos as we've seen is this is this practical as in you know you know. is it expensive is there a deeper meaning do you just like dressing up i think all the faith all the faith it's practical i like this thing up but it is also really important because it's just the role play and if you if you have actresses or actors in these roles

they're still the actresses and actors but this are just the roles and that's really really important to have the same guy as an animal as a man as a woman as every everyone and maybe you're the only person who understands it all in the seeing some of your films they tell a story but sometimes it's hard to know quite what the story is if you don't mind me saying is that deliberate do you want us to make our own interpretations of what you're doing or do you have a. particular message i think the story is most of the times it's by obvious from my perspective and but it's maybe not easy it's not an easy story and it makes you think and i really like to make people think and to go deeper and think about what they see and not just consume moving images. and you address a lot of serious subjects social issues for instance but also with a lot of humor and i wonder is that because you like to do that or is that she

does that actually give you a strong meaning and i think humor a good sense of humor is really really important in telling also sad things tragic things in our society and through humor you can you can it's more powerful more emotional and you can reach people much better through you. and it's not a constant with you always humor with it i've actually only seen things that have humor in them i mean. to say it's most this kind of humor is most tragic comical so there is always a certain kind of tragedy a sadness in this in this kind of humor and i think really humor is a very serious thing to communicate and and even the very sad things that we live in our life and that we have to go through every one of us and it's not getting better these days no you. know i have to ask you. 3 hours of television

what do you hate about the media you say the media angers you why the ticket what's particularly makes you angry about the media i think sometimes it can be very brainwashing and mean i grew up with television now we have different kind of media we have social media we have all kinds of and it is keeps us busy and like most people i there are like jumping. and they are kept busy aand losing their own like presence and there's some wells they are not present anymore i mean it's changed course you'll still making video but this is changed enormously since you started i mean it's just completely turned on its head with social media i mean are you able to bring that into your work somehow yeah so lately i mean in the early work i referenced earlier films hollywood movies now i'm

referencing huge you and other social media or and they go further and of course this is a contemporary well what's next what's next for you or have you can't you know you want to yeah i think i continue i mean i have one project in mind and since i appropriated some language from a in. quite famous influencer on you tube i think this is something i would like to look more into it and also into german influencers and how they use what kind of language they use and part part these english and and some is german and i would be interested in this kind of language and what i can do out of it. is to great talking to you keep writing these wonderful videos thank you very much for being with us today thank you for having me in the show. it's time for 100 german must reads where we've selected 100 of the best books of german literature.

in the last 120 years is today a classic by best hold direct the threatening novel is of course based on is threatening the is slightly different now it's time for a man of letters mr david leavitt's to break into song. so. pearly white. just attract. back. louis armstrong ella fitzgerald frank sinatra robbie williams they all say mack the knife but do you know it's german author belts what pushed lived in this house here in berlin and he wrote those lyrics were his 3 opera the shows about

a london games to name to make heath and his arch enemy peaches the king of the bankers. but i throw the threepenny novel 5 years later in 1933 the characters are the same but this time gangster mckeith has changed his tune he's become a businessman a model capitalist because why kill people for money and power when there are other ways. in my opinion which is the opinion of a hardworking businessman we haven't got the right men at the head of the country they all belong to some party or other we need men who stand up above all parties something like us business men the government of the states has a moral task everything must be so organized that the entrepreneur is a good entrepreneur the worker a good worker in short that the rich are good right. and the poor good poor. need has all the makings of

a populist politician he promises to stick it to the establishment and be a champion for the little guy but he's really in it for himself sound familiar 3 penny novel is a bitter satire of capitalism and politics written during the nazi period but as current as i think. we've all been celebrating the full of the burning ball 30 years ago and germany successfully reunifying one year later in 1990 however the former eastern states are still struggling economically and over 2000000 people have moved westward since the wall fell and in particular a rural areas are hardest hit him on the problems is that there's not a lot to do for young people is one man's efforts at trying to change all that with what he calls a disco bus. this van is germany's smallest dance

club and it's called fat. sebastien should that drives fat acre around the shrinking towns and villages of germany's rural northeast taking the party to the people. but to give it some thought 1st round today there's a village festival we're in a new youth club is being opened so that's really unusual around here generally the youth clubs are closing down rather than opening what's. happened to us has a population of $2500.00 inside fat acres there's 6 square metres of dance floor it's the afternoon but the party is getting started. then it's back on the road this time to the village of clinton now with a population only in the dozens the nearest dance club is quite a way. off and there's no proper bus or train service to get there. oh oh

oh oh oh oh oh so fat you could provide some much needed fun because operation costs are around 2000 euros per year some of that money comes from private donations some of it from public funds. to work up yeah it's getting lively looking good. as the evening progresses the dance floor fills up. is a little world of her own. such as monday this always makes me so how to use up the eccentric if i really have so many events every summer. and then sometimes in the days leading up to a gay guy i'm like oh here we go again another weekend. but when i sit in the car and it starts to take off it's awesome it's so much fun it's good but the full tilt was. substantial but doesn't get paid for his mobile disco mission but that won't

stop him from hitting the country roads again on his way to the next day so. that's it for this edition of all sin culture and always more stories from around the world on our website at d.w. don't call me slash call thanks for watching and join us again at the same time tomorrow if you can.
