for the future. to make the city. and the center. what secrets lie behind this one. discover new adventures in 360 degree. and explore fascinating world heritage sites. w world heritage 316 get a map now. to . a low and a very warm welcome indeed to focus on europe with me peter craven and we begin this week in eastern europe in poland to be precise where a man called pavel adam over each scene on the right of your screen was the mayor

of the northern port city of danske then almost exactly a year ago he was stabbed to death during a charity event. now before that shocking attack pavel adam of which was a prominent advocate for liberal causes and a strong supporter of pro european sentiments and priorities killing has come under massive pressure from a right wing hate campaign so after his death his widow magdaléna has taken up the fight against the hate speech that she says is having such a devastating impact in poland poisoning politics and threatening lifes. for a year magdalena adam ovid's has been visiting her husband's grave at st mary's church in dansk. she says he stood for freedom and against poland's right wing populist law and justice party that tramples on that freedom and that this cost him his life . he was killed by hate speech was

averted by these troll factories. just information spread about pavel. the accusations in the defamation. that's what killed him. in the 1980 s. pavel at demo that she was a student leader in the celadon issue led by les at the dance shipyard slowly dawn helped put an end to communist rule in poland. years later when the populist law and justice party came to power as damasks mayor adam overage was the face of a different liberal poland and for years the target of hate propaganda on january 18th 2900 pavel i demoed it was taking part in poland's biggest charity fundraiser when he was stabbed in front of millions of viewers his attacker then grabs the microphone and shouted hate slogans against at a movie and fellow politicians. it appears hate slogans and campaigns originate at

places like this the office of the ultra nationalist organization polish youth in 2017 spokesman matteo and his allies became known for issuing symbolic death certificates for 11 mayors who agreed to welcome refugees to their cities the certificate stated. liberalism multiculturalism stupidity. the public prosecutor's office which is controlled directly by the justice minister found no reason to charge the campaign's initiators. call for violence and hate. that it fell within the framework of public debate. and that was simply draw attention to certain politically sensitive issues. for magdaléna that's a mockery she says issuing fake death certificates is illegal as a member of the european parliament she's fighting against hate campaigns in 2

weeks i have to go to. a certificate of the model for hosp and this was something. that i have never you know i just think specter magdaléna knows that words can kill so she's launched the international initiative imagine there's no hate she's also campaigning for a european law against hate speech. we have to define the word hate speech and then when the freedom of the speech we need to. really group of. professional is and special is in many fields to find this definitions in dansk adam overage who is a trained lawyer tries to sensitize students to have words to create he. is

the one you monday march today and many countries populist governments resort to mechanisms which are based on manipulating people the washing mindful of our new. magdaléna says she's not afraid. her husband told her not to be she still senses his presence. and the pad saw it a lot of it and that that i still wear my wedding ring on my right hand in. married women do here in poland to get on. here because i still feel like his wife . i don't like the word widow that they should have focused on. magdaléna i don't know that she's doing all she can to keep her husband's legacy alive. and it's a fire that madeline i don't know which doesn't want to limits a poland after all hate speech knows no borders no one

a very different note we had to italy and i wonder are you a fan of prozac oh the sparkling wine made in italy that provides a light that are a matter of alternative to champagne but there's a problem because prozac a used to be produced in a specifically defined area in the north of the country however big new manufacturers have been moving into the market and according to traditional lists like francesco drizzy on watering down the brand as a result it seems there's a prosaic oh war in the making. vines as far as the eye can see francesco the family has owned a vineyard here for 3 generations. the visitor is proud of its impossible hills they had a hold of genuine percent though. the fact that they have a ties down of the loans with the same name annoys him. c.b.s. little league on their ads you see pictures of our beautiful hills which discipline

them but yet. does not come from here at all. you can't advertise in an area you don't even own. the mineral rich soil and the steep slopes of the volga be a den there gives the glitter a great variety the unique flavor for 2nd. yeah better but only a fraction of the percent go sold worldwide comes from producers like francesco. this is where per 2nd was born between. the efforts of our great grandfathers it's thanks to them that our sparkling wine is known and loved all over the world. for the simple. this kind of advertising as done by competition from the lowlands is below his dignity because they even advertise the percent as a mixed drink in red or orange. this mass produced products is made 125000

hectares in 501 centers. last year we sold nearly 500000000 bottles of course. that means more market power and a higher degree of product recognition. everyone in the business benefits from that is just. not the big vineyards with large steel tanks the emphasis is on volume. the final is the net the presents the deo see sparkling wine producers the d o c there's a nation is now valid and 9 provinces in the northern italian region 7 that though i'm feeling it would be. this means that traditional wine growers have to cut back a little and open up the market to us lowlanders as well. that way the overall product can enjoy a lasting success. this isn't acceptable to the producers of classic percent

involved be a dandy they now want to preserve their culturally protected product from low income petition a group of established venues meet in this old wine cellar. in the they choose the best bottle every year the perception was be pure and made only from the grapes that have grown here. written pretty good on the paizo the high quality of the lowland prosecco makes our work difficult we are struggling to keep our identity from simply being watered down. the venues shape this cultural landscape over generations and have now even received the unesco designation. this has its price in their vineyards the grapes still have to be harvested by hand. the slopes are too steep for machines every square metre here requires 5 times as many working hours as down the lowlands. each grape cluster

must be cut by hand to get up already made basket must be carried up or down the slopes or stout or just for starters who is your mean. in the lowlands whoever machines harvest the grapes worlds collide the world's a perceptible. invalid or be a den they the more convinced than ever that they must defend their identity. francesco dressy and not compromise is where food and drinks are concerned tradition is tradition and. we are who we are not. the charm or course or the toys and the curtain servitude and don't want our wonderful hill to simply be globalized and commercialized like the lowlands. not being all that now. so francesco dressy and is going to extremes to protect a special sparkling wine by not calling a perception any more in future it will only be known as vulgar be

a demi superiority. well now we go to greece where homelessness remains a major problem and many of those living on the streets are of course the victims of the economic crisis that has rocked the country in recent years so is it possible for people to get their lives back on track yes it is crystal solid frontis the man known as the case of the home. christos often goes outside to his athens he doesn't need to walk far until he runs into homeless people or there deserted sleeping places even in the middle of the greek capital more and more people are living rough it has become his life's work to help at least some of them many here call him the king of the homeless. just before the crisis i already saw homeless people in abandoned buildings in the

city center. christos fundis has provided an income for about 150 homeless people in the last few years as vendors of the newspaper shadia english craft. fotis adam or pelosi is one of these vendors he hasn't had a home for a long time and sleeps in a factory where there is no room for him during the day i don't yet have alzheimer's i'm happy that i can work and not have to beg anymore. talking to people who work it's like medicine and a farm up. a life for the homeless crystal a fantasy can make it look like this oh dear get their ass a little all those who practice here don't have a home but playing together gives them a sense of support and belonging they play here once a week and often take part in tournaments. it's great to see these people start

smiling again and you give them the ball to play with. your trouble. yanis call it so says the homeless team's coach he tries to teach them tactics and playing discipline and of course to give the motivation he knows what he's talking about for years young is called source was also homeless. puts us doesn't earn money from football but here in the shady a restaurant's kitchen as a chef elefant his is also in charge here the catering business in the middle of athens is largely run by former homeless people like you honest sick on the bottom if you regard the beginning many of my colleagues find it difficult to return to regular work. as homeless people they've forgotten how to do it so to speak and quickly become tired. on the outside the homeless restaurant in athens looks like a normal restaurant but you can't see up stairs the editorial offices of the street newspaper and

a workshop for former homeless people are located. small metal houses hanging from the restaurant ceiling $45.00 in total each one of them stands for a homeless person who has found work and shelter thanks to christos. off to poor command. we make every effort to ensure that our guests feel comfortable in this place of solidarity going to is going to do and we have many guests come here not just for the food or drinks they want to support the homeless project with the revenue they generate. huge money so badly i like this place it's more than just a restaurant it's designed to help people in need. a little bit better believe. that king of the homeless christos other volunteers has only lived in athens for a few years he is a journalist by profession editor of shadia and for several months now a part time destroying them or to. the people we hire must meet certain criteria

they must be homeless and at least 50 years old. yet these little and they must have boiled an egg in their life and really want to work. in the afternoon christos telefunken is goes back to the world of the homeless their life is particularly hard in greece the state does practically nothing for them. far it is not enough to give the homeless food and a bad job a lot of it might help if i cannot help you also to make me feel like a full member of society from another book. christos telefon tis the king of the homeless in athens has big plans in the future he wants to get even more people on the streets. well these days almost everybody agrees that global warming poses an ever growing threat to the future of our planet part of the solution is to reduce our dependency on forssell fuels and one of the places that's leading the

way here is the danish island of zamzam it's become a poster child for a climate friendly way of life with the island and its inhabitants producing more energy than they actually need the big question is how. it takes a deep love for nature and peace and quiet to live on denmark's exams of island the ice age left gently rolling countryside here. but tina and her husband ben had other reasons to leave the city life copenhagen and or who's behind and move here 3 years ago. they set out to take part in an experiment it was the island communities bid to save the world. for us. and employed in the fact that sam so is far ahead in terms of sustainability and what they started here 20 years ago inspired us we wanted to be a part of this. one a little excursion around the island with

a population of around 3500 seems ideal and in many ways like any other danish island. what stands out are the many wind turbines of the 1st generation and the outside solar panels in front of the town hall and men like the farmer your been one of the energy pioneers 20 years ago he and other islanders joined forces to create sam's those 1st wind farms. they got. back then and when i put 12000000 kroner into my 1st winter blend i had sleepless nights. i had to change banks and go deep into debt and food but that's what you do for mother earth for fuel and. he and the others were determined to enzymes as dependence on oil and gas from the mainland the investments paid off now he earns money as a wind and solar power farmer and the straw he grows in the summer he's islanders

homes and winter. the straw grows here and the oil stays in the ground elsewhere. the best part is that in spring the straw grows back again pretty smart doesn't it yes. smart straw is used to fire boilers for a mini biogas c.h.p. plant and he sam's those homes step by step became energy independent and entirely c o 2 neutral. geriatric nurse elizabeth hawk demonstrates how it works her shift begins every day with the same ritual unplugging her electric car. that has to be completely filling station is above us here on the roof so the cars are recharged from solar energy that's how easy it is.

the local authorities switch to electric vehicles in 2013 cutting their outgoings to half of what diesel cost and reducing their carbon emissions to 0. twice or 3 times a day the nurse checks on 87 year old good to him home at 1st it bothered miss home that she couldn't hear the car pull up anymore because it's entirely noiseless. but then i thought i don't care what they drive and the important thing is that they come by. my all the islands projects are coordinated here as sam's energy academy in 1907 it was commissioned by the danish government to revolutionize energy use on. men membership of bullying in the end we succeeded in transforming our carbon footprint and 1st making it neutral and now even negative winds give us people to see a man in a key in between and she said today we produce more energy than we use a direction the whole world wants to take the heat of it and then really. gifts

that have been brought from around the world countless delegations have been inspired by the small island. there are many. this shows those in the world us next week will be having visitors from new zealand on the scene so it's gathered some 4 to 5000 guests have been here so far from tools and just think how not back to ben and tina they'd like to do their part as well. they discussed how to save even more energy with the other islanders their latest project is due for a large and 2020 passenger ferry to the mainland. made of aluminum it will be very like way to consume far less diesel. do we go out and test it be fantastic if we could build an all electric powered ferry but for now the batteries are too big and too expensive our compromise will be to replace the engine the moment the right technology becomes available technology mecca. it takes

a healthy dose of pragmatism to save the world. that. protrude no think ballet and the country that most likely 1st comes to mind is russia focused on europe has been following the fortunes of one young russian dancer from a small town in the far east of siberia he's traveled a long way from home and work very very hard indeed in a bid to be taken on by one of the most prestigious ballet companies in the world that the bottle surely theater now even among the youngest competition in stiff and training is tough so did young sammy on make the grade and has his dream come true . on the curriculum it is just called classical dance ringback in practice it's hard work for hours. to get out more. turn them out out out. and

live in your old semi on semyonov is getting ready for his very 1st appearance on the big stage in the record the classic winter ballet he practices for hours every morning. my dad says that being a ballet dancer is nice but tough. it's especially tough for someone who comes from a small town and is just starting out. at the bloody vostok branch of the moscow state academy of choreography also known as the bolshoi ballet school. that has a language oh it's on. you go it is the 1st time i heard pull on your tail i thought what tail that and how do you pull it in. or turn your knee. or thighs out. yeah. the strict discipline of ballet is a whole new world for some young he's been living in the academy's boarding school invalid of us stuck for 3 months now. that 1st i thought it's great living along

with your family specially when you're still so young and that you know that i started missing my mother. some you know some enough comes from pure a bit john that sound and russia's far east some 1000 kilometers from lot of us stuck. with a population of about 80000 cultural life is limited. so it was a minor sensation when the young local boy was recruited for the famous ballet academy. well of the children enjoy the winter break summer and purrs 1st performance but is allowed a few days at home before. one would it be mutual and there is opportunity to get to know another world. and maybe even to become famous slava the car. back in vladivostok the performers enter the final rehearsal face.

stuck you have to follow the music. master. i was afraid of the big stage. yeah i was afraid the adult dancers who can do everything but see me dance and laugh. at their do cause they do it that's what i was most afraid of. the day of the premiere and simulants performance arrives. all 1356 seats in front of us stocks opera house are sold out. and the audience is simeon's funny we've come all the way from here to john to see him performing.

in the sense this is my chance. to adelaide school they said it would be the chance of a lifetime and i thought really i have no problem with that and you put your. 11 year old boy from birth of the john his air into the rose of the 1st a clean career in bali. and perhaps the 1st step on this path to fame. great stuff sammy on him what a wonderful smile well that's all for now from focus on europe thanks so much for joining us and if you'd like to see any of our reports again just go to our home page on d w w calm for visit all facebook page d
