and a french graffiti artist who creates optical illusions and then appears in the most wow. bots we start with a movie that's been talked about a lot at the moment never rarely sometimes always is about the difficult subject of teenage pregnancy and abortion in america where such rights or lack of them are very different from state to state fatsis 1st let's have a look at the movie and some great acting from the 2 newcomers who really carry the film. that looks like a positive. because paul knew this is there any way compete. no composite it wasn't. this the most magical solution was.

a young girl and a very big problem olson is pregnant and doesn't want to be thinking citron how she ended up in this situation is unclear for much of the film. but she certain she doesn't want to have the baby and the pregnancy becomes a huge psychological burden for her to focus to stay tonight but it's already too late for her to have an abortion in her home state of pennsylvania. so along with her cousin she travels to new york city without telling her parents. the film directed by allies the hitmen gives a glimpse into the harsh reality facing young women in the united states who want to end pregnancies and now dismiss hired intention unsparing it shows us just how lost and desperate the girls on but it also celebrates the selfless solidarity that exists between them. and ask you some question. you can be really

personal. mark cully mark a crew guy who puts government reform is with me now i want to ask you 1st of all about but it's a strange time to leave. and they sometimes always will you really have to think about it but it's. you know the very devastating sequence in the film because she's asked about her sex life and those words all the possible answers. and those yeah those words and it's really a key scene you would never forget the expression on her face now talking about expressions of the little bit i've seen of those 2 actors their complete newcomers i mean where did the director find these 2 where the director is a law is

a hit man and she met one of those girls sidney flanagan at another edition and that was already back in 2012 and she never forgot and she keep in touch with her over the years because of her incredible presence and so she invited her to addition to this movie and this was a very unconventional addition the girls had to act in strange occasions like in a bathroom or in the subway and likes to do that in the real world so she says that to capture the feeling of what it would like during production so she lets her actors communicate less with words and more with expressions and i think you know all that obviously well from what i've seen that. wanted pregnancies a woman's right to decide it's been a big topic in the united states laws have been changing and what's actually the

position right now well we still have the situation in every state there are different laws and but in the last years conservative forces to boost they got tailwind from the trump presidency there are no many states with stricter rules want to ban all most abortions and what we're already seeing today is this kind of abortion tourism and this is exactly what the girls are doing in the film so so much material for discussions and this film blockbusters as we know it being pushed by. the fast and furious latest ones just seem to spawn this independent film is coming out it's coming in selected cinemas in the states look out for it i beg people to look out specially young people to look out for it micah thank you very much as always thank you. now you are lynskey has been causing quite a stir in the world of brock in recent times his astonishing count to 10

a voice full of emotion and sense reality is being raised by critics and the offer going public and me and as you're about to see it's not his own a talent he's also an accomplished but in a show you might not expect. there are many opera singers who can also break dance in fact he. may be the only one that perished countertenor has unmistakable star quality and a pretty unique skill set. is still me it's always been like this and it's still like all those sides of me are our sides of me so it's still me. graduates have also frederic chopin universe team judy on the new york on the ski

recently performed. at the international handel festival in cars. at this moment and him rave reviews and gave him an opportunity to demonstrate his exceptional range of expression. my role is very dramatic and i love it because the thing is that like i am in love and i lost my beloved i lost the throne so i really want to commit suicide from the very beginning of the opera and then i have to just find different shades different colors to show sadness emptiness like a longing lacking frustration anger and there's so many different sort. of let's say dark emotions that you you have to put in your rush the t.v. in your arias and and it's really a challenge. because. critics

love his striking vocal beauty but in fact he took a while to find his voice today only in steel is fully comfortable as i counted 10 . this is what i want to do because i tried as a bass baritone because that's my natural voice i just don't feel in the same way i cannot i cannot expose and show and make people feel the same way as a and like control what i what i want to do with with my natural voice. he said he loves baroque music because it requires a performance he learn everything including color etc he admits he loves a bit of history and he says. we used to say opera world operas and basically all the operas are a little bit like brazilian soap opera it's so jamali borrow a bar and then suddenly there's like whoa everybody loves each other so it's great

let's high 5. yeah i could use that only in school currently one of the most vibrant performers on the international classical music scene and one with pop star appeal. extraordinary voice many street artists want to remain anonymous and are reluctant to show their face in front of the camera but french artist scaff is quite the opposite not only does he strike a larger than life graffiti creating optical illusions he then becomes part of his art work himself at least for a brief moment and here is how he does it. what's real and what's painted on the wall it's got squiffy the art is more than just. 2 dimensional images their settings for the artist's own fantasies his self portraits add to the whimsical and amazing works. of

people grow very fast and loose the child inner selves. i'm 38 years old and they paint clothes pins are crocodiles 8 times my size or just a child in me and i really don't want to lose that. is a bit of the peter pan syndrome but i want to show that we should keep the playfulness. and abandon factory somewhere in france now it's serving as a studio 1st scuff whose real name is pierre better not. today he's chosen this area as his canvas every corner in the crumbling building inspires him. a lot because with what i'm going to do know is a big clothes pin pulling up the wall. there's no rhyme or reason to it. i just think it's funny. the saudi go to.

create each image in advance on his computer his technique is called anamorphic art the works can only be properly view from certain angles in the room. so if you look at the painting from other angles it's all disproportionate but if you stand on the spot the artist intended everything falls into place everything that should be parallel is parallel but only from a very specific point. the artist uploads his photos to instagram his account there is an archive of his works they often only last a few weeks because the walls he paints on are damp comic and fantasy figures and wild creatures are his subjects. scuffed keeps the precise location of his

sprayer headquarters a secret. i'm lucky i live in the country between small villages and big cities factory buildings like this one quickly demolished occupied by squatters or covered someone else's graffiti i've been painting for 20 years and i've always loved painting in these abandoned sites. for the past 3 years he's concentrated on optical illusion he doesn't limit his creativity to so-called lost places like this for private clients he'll also paint in public places his works have one thing in common they're never really meant seriously. here he puts the finishing touches on the clothes and the shading has to be just right to create the 3 d. effect. finally everything's ready for the artist's personal appearance in case the viewer
