and we'll be meeting up with a photographer on a mission to find the hidden and unlikely places that cars go to. start with an explosion of energy in the form of one nicholas kurla he hails from fire in southern germany and even though he's only 15 years old he's got star quality on stage as a dancer at the recent world dance cup in baja guy in portugal he was named dancer of the year from a field of 6000 participants bought poetry in motion doesn't come easy. you let go you let your body do what it wants. the thank you everything to take the audience with you. know when you've got them it's such a relief then it's just goose bumps joy.

before the goose bumps the hard work nicholas trains 5 times a week at his freiburg don't scold repeating the same movements over and over until the perfect. kid some ironhide down by on the one hand it's just to get warm to reach the right level of fitness to get the post to 100 but it's also about expression and getting the feeling of the daunce and so on in sometimes feeling and to come nicholas kohler is 15 years old one meter 66 tall he weighs 53 kilos and he's the star of his dance group release he's a mental ward and then there's the moment when you run onto the stage you hear the other steps that's the moment when you just want to know the audience the dead.

stewart has looked into the ups and the downs on the lives of women here in germany and whether or not we really have come a long way. hold on to your friends that day for me the german is all about with. the 50 percent of the german population is female the most popular names of girls over the past 15 years stephanie. the life expectancy of a girl put into the day is just over 83 years that's almost 5 more than her male peers will experience quality in the long. haul. and it's have not yet a long does that mean this is from my that's an. endorsement from the designers that's as tight as previously by these images to give you not have to modify this last saturday's acma never touch him as foundation does he doesn't it is a new person that must of the team that you see have. said into the present tense

from calling them to us even though this is just in the us and bands of the disciplines of. the global gender gap tracks progress in gender equality in areas such as health education economy and politics germany is ranked 10th out of $153.00 countries not bad but it still has one of the biggest gender pay gap in europe and if you're on the board of $1.00 of the top german companies you're more likely to be called michael thomas or stephan than you are to be a woman. allow me to introduce you to. back in the mid 19th century she was one of the early trailblazers in women's rights they were fighting for the right to vote to get an education and to work but what came next let's kick off with a victory. in 1918 women in germany won the right to vote. under the nazis women were pushed back out of political life and encouraged to have large families across the on it was even awarded to especially productive mothers. men and women

shall have equal rights that became part of the german constitution in 1949 last week thanks to the complaining of politicians. the end of the sixty's saw civil unrest ripple across the black. women in germany became fed up of being treated as assistants on the sidelines of a social movement remember that tomorrow from the beginning at the meeting of the socialist german student union you could have had enough she started launching tomatoes at the met on stage. this action ended up being a catalyst for the female students to get organized. in 1971 having an abortion could land the woman and her doctor in jail for up to 10 years that's why this magazine cover shook the country hundreds of german women including some household names declaring we've had an abortion the 2nd wave of feminism in germany went on to put all sorts of topics on the agenda such as wages for housework female sexuality and discrimination against gay women. the reunification of germany showed

just how different women situations have become in the west and in the east women in the east often went to work full time and there was a good childcare system in place whether or not you can call that emancipation when it was more or less forced by the state is arguable and of course they were still expected to deal with the kids and the housework. are you ready for that f. word. and then america is one of the most influential women in the world she has said that gender equality is logical and yet she was never heed to labor herself a feminist let's see what i want to also say deterministic night night. make me. ask an opera die to deep insight into the commission it's almost a business which insisted we had to. resort to extreme because it is what i'm talking of. we should all just swim in the small stuff falling under some notion current boss men are all. clones once it's only windows.

yes they should and speaking of equality meanwhile it's not just the y. chromosome carriers who get quite excited about cars but while most people these days are talking about the future of mobility we've decided to shine a light on the jalopies of the past especially those models that quite literally qualify as lost and will be doing it with a couple of photographers who have the necessary newness and the gear. sneaking through the undergrowth at night looking for rusty cars to flown and tend to about the older and more derelicts the car the better. like this ford town a 17 am from the 1960 s. abandoned in the middle of a forest. doesn't shine and was

photos for companies and experiments with artistic concepts. the last cars is a joint project which sometimes requires long trips. they keep the exact locations to themselves. looking for car wrecks is often detective work on the site. like here in the eiffel south of cologne a hoover receives a tip from a friend that an old ford town us disposed of sometime in the seventy's is supposedly located somewhere close. in the twilight hours to. photographers enter the forest. and move and need the darkness for their photos. only then can they completely control the lighting using torches and remote controlled flashes. is about senators want to give you that there's a certain dramatic atmosphere about the situation which you want to support and at
