of the ocean. we start off with sustainable fashion which in itself is a bit like an oxymoron given the fast fashion collections that are throwaway culture craves but there are moves afoot to curb one of the most polluting industries on the planet art see if is an israeli designer who has returned to his moroccan groups and with a very minimalistic team he does high end up cycling to great effect. the rico valley at the foot of morocco's high atlas mountains is the backdrop for a photo shoot starting to leila a model from the region. is the face of the americas fashion label art seen by israeli designer art c.e. from. the frost designs take inspiration from berber traditions. the color wreath with experience in the way i mix them the way i feel about the

thing is there happiness today you for us music is posing for the cover of vogue arabia. our. focus is read the. impression that you have a signature of something for my creative d.n.a. is completely belong to this country and produced. this cultural difference rock and heritage is the d.n.a. art seized tate is a bright mutation mixing materials and styles playing with tradition and clichés to create something that's very 21st century. it's always very beautiful and fast. it's the 1st dean of super respectful. art see recycled. not just traditional looks but old fabrics to each piece is

unique made from materials the designer finds all over the world. and it's made from. memory. because if you think. over a. new life into the fabrics he finds. he designs his clothes directly on his models intuitively without drawing any sketches 1st. it's a process the treasures the old. disposable fashion that dominates the industry.

different approaches and. each piece. ties together different cultures as well as a sense of both the past and the future tradition and modernity are designs make a bold statement against overproduction and against fashion as something to be thrown away. and. the dilemma. so i'm all for having. but i don't imagine that stuff. unfortunately it's not care and. it's not so for most people can afford there are recycled an up cycle brands that are more affordable but still they are more expensive than the. that most people buy it and that's because recycled

fashion takes more time to make each piece has to be unique because that's what happens when you recycle materials you have to work around what you've got of course it's a lot more expensive than mass production which is why it's not the norm but we are seeing a new awareness of the idea at least just an example this last weekend at the oscars joaquin phoenix rewarded his talks jane fonda reward her down search for ronan's gucci down was a recycled version of the previous gown that she had worn so there is more awareness of this idea at least at the very highest levels ok let's hope it tickled down and let's talk a little bit about why this is important because i think many people are aware just exactly how i want glamorous the fashion industry is when you really look at what it's doing to the environment right fashion is actually the 2nd most polluting industry in the world it's responsible for 10 percent of global carbon emissions that's more than international flights and maritime shipping put together and it's only been getting worse in the last 20 years actually clothing production has

doubled meanwhile more than half of textiles are thrown away every year and there's disappearing there's as it is and there's this other big issue which is the kind of materials were wearing synthetic blood such as polyester in most clothing items and every time we wash them little tiny pieces of plastic get into the water it is for the oceans and we wash too much of course now what can those of us with more normal budgets do to dress fashionably and yet remain a bit sustainable right well inside that aside from secondhand fashing secondhand shopping we should be trying basically to buy less and buy things that we really like and that will last and preferably natural materials to ok well thanks very much for alerting us to our who will be featured on our 21 show this coming saturday some realistic steps to take for a sustainable fashion thanks for joining us with those insights david leavitt's you're welcome. oh it's back in 1905 that brazilian ballerina found

keeney decided to teach classical ballet to visually impaired youngsters for free since then her school in sao paulo has opened its doors to the deaf and mute and even to kids with other disabilities now her goal is to help all her students gain more social acceptance and now a documentary film illustrates her success story. when jesus says she forgets that she's blind. jesus was like a natural born star i think she was born for the stage and for the camera there's something about her that i just don't know how to explain it's a very like her presence and she's like about her and of the whole time. being sightless and she was 9 is one of the main figures in alice shantel palette as documentary looking at the starts about the ballet school for the blind in sao

paolo it's about the challenges the students face on their personal odyssey as dances and how they have a nest skills at this unique learning facility. to go to like a regular bowler class and i can see it like that everyone is there is like a big mirror and the students are here and everyone is looking at them you are too you know like mimic to copy the movements of the teacher and in the case of the school know it's like so you have to go east you know by student and show that's how you do it and you're position there are it's all everything is based on touch how did you start to go negative. looking at the stars is not so much a depiction of overcoming disability and prejudice but more portraits of disciplined and determined young ballerinas overcoming odds of being me. the training is arduous the physical impairments mean students can balance by

focusing on fixed points the way that sighted dances do. moves like pirouettes or especially turkey would solve. every class i get goosebumps especially when they manage to dance some sections totally synchronized i need to keep myself from immediately stopping the music and shouting great you've done it. that's it. the documentary shows how important it is for the students to be seen as exceptional ballet dancers and not be defined only by their impairment and ultimately audiences are impressed by their performances as dances but also by their personal courage. away from the dazzle of the stage the film doesn't shy away

from everyday hardship it shows how difficult daily life is for blind people in brazil in scenes that was shot outside of the ballet school look out of the usually self competent is thrown off the rails after the birth of her child. story is movingly told it's about the struggle for inclusion in a deeply patriarchal society. and looking at the stars opens here in germany on february 13th all someone else who documents for a living as a marine biologist only coolants he's also a diver and nature photographer and his office is quite literally underwater these days in the freezing waters of the north atlantic while with his daring expeditions he hopes to sensitize people for the necessity of ocean conservation and we caught up with him off the coast of northern whoa wait. underwater photography
