the west that was dark slant 83 the show was deemed a flop here in germany where it was made but around the world it was a hit now amazon is well launching the 3rd and final season of the dark trilogy and 89 the cold war is entering its final phase but for the characters things are just heating up. nov 9th 1909. the berlin war for moves. the end of communist east germany big changes for citizens. but what about those working for foreign espionage the 2 is turned upside down. former top spy in martin rock alias calipari has just joined a computer company as a sales person and is hoping for a quiet life. and his comment. but you get the.

k.g.b. cia m i 6 calipari is courted by them all and starts a dangerous games $20000.00 and i just don't want to work for the cia. and you to come visit me so this is unfinished business was and. everything seems possible in this phase of transition characters take on a new identities to reinvent themselves not the 1st time germans have adapted to survive. that a country we're now on today for stability and security has gone within a 100 years from monarchy to failed democracy fascist dictatorship a communist state to a united world 1st a successful western democracy then a united and successful democracy this has hardly happened anywhere else in the

world in quite this way and one could almost say the germans are world champions of reinventing themselves. in front of the. only thing you know is that it be you one of the one of the top echelon of the g.d.r. secret service flees to italy and works together with the mafia sleeveless and competence to place others person to more legitimate business opportunities the problem computer. providers of good. various important. director solian youssef came to germany from iraq in 1996 she knew german history only from movies and books. doing gemini 89 it all became much more vivid i filmed in the places where this all took place where this history was lived and i had discussions with team members some who fled some

who said. so i heard and stories also and i have the feeling that i actually relive that time. together with fellow director rhonda shah who'd she has staged the final series as an extended road movie with some striking visual sequences our hero on a psychedelic trip. george learned $89.00 at breakneck trip through german history the wait is over. the wait is over and my colleague michael kroger is here announce speaking of the wait being over for someone who wants to watch george lund 89 maybe hasn't seen 83 and 86 can you watch the new series without having seen the last 2 of course each season can be watched without the other and because the basic story

is nearly always the same you have this guy who really wants to have a quiet life and he constantly is untangle in great historical events in the eighty's this starts in the 1st serious with 83 we can have a look at it. there is a simple socha believing in the coming of the system of east germany and the against his will he smuggled into the west as a spy and the basic story is nearly always the same you have this guy who really wants to have a quiet life and he constantly is untangle in great historical events in the eighty's this starts in the 1st serious with 83 we can have a look at it. in the gulf there was a simple socha believing in the coming of the system of east germany and the against his will he smuggled into the west as a spy and sub preventing in the end and nuclear world wall just by accident you see

him here in the. completely overwhelmed. and then afterwards in 86. he is used for deals in angola to fill east germany's empty cup us this all sounds very very serious but it isn't is really big fun and not because of that crazy story also because of the music of the eighty's of course speaking of music of course the main actor on the show your last night is also a musician how does he combine these 2 passions well that wasn't is not not so much time for his band put it on her translated it's something like could overlay here. and so he managed to produce a video for its latest song securely see during the filming on sir i think we've got a clip of that let's just check that out securely to. so

this is a marching route that. is just dancing to the music dance so i've got. i've got his case. he's actually on the way to his job and this was a sequence that didn't get into the series but it did get into the clip. very. early it's been 5 years. started since the demand globally for german series has grown exponentially how do you explain that well for a very long time german t.v. series had an awful reputation. because german network is didn't like experience

and without any experience it's getting really boring so i have to say that everything is a little absolutely today everything is a little bit different because of the competition with the international serving streaming services and their huge budget and the german filmmakers now things wait a minute why should we produce for an international audience and here we are doc is one example for that it's produced by in that flicks they are really not afraid to take a risk with something new and now there is really no way back everyone has to follow and then serious like. is possible. there is. no other german series has cussed so much money but it was worth it and the latest example is now coming out it's. told office 900 beer of blood just.

a bit a family feud set in the early days of the october office here in blood and there's rumors that may be on netflix soon we'll have to see how much beer and blood we can get if miley we want to be of that. now face of queen elizabeth is more than 2 eyes a nose and a mouth it's a symbol of power printed on banknotes from bermuda to britain to new zealand i was a bit sad for her 1st portrait as queen almost 7 decades ago and her way to stifle portrait painter miriam aska fred shows a 94 year old monarch and what the artist calls an aura of regal miss. this is how queen elizabeth the 2nd now greets diplomats and guests in the foyer of the british foreign office. the oil painting is the work of artist mary miska

fit she met the monarch in person twice once at buckingham palace in the heart of the british capital. for the queen in particular i think what's fascinating about painting how's that you're possibly painting. the best known face in the world and actually that's not an easy thing to do 3 minutes cafe to spend an hour all together with the queen and it was a special honor for their mothers british has found a spanish painter she's quite a powerful this will pass and really that's that was my 1st impression and also very quickly cause a sense of something was very grounded very natural and that she was a very very sharp sense of humor very close to the surface all the time which was really lovely. the artist worked on her trip here in her studio in south london it took a turn in months to complete from the 1st sketch to the finished painting she painted the face last the biggest challenge and the biggest worries guessing guessing how

right and getting the face right and getting a sense the person and off the pose so the face of the queen and. yes and then that feature of the light from the gold which i loved behind her i thought that was stuff that was just picked all clear a lovely thing but it also serves that purpose of creating that sensible. around. details in symbolism are an important aspect of her work the painting by a german renaissance artist inspired her to not use several surreal elements like an empty teacup when i was working on the portrait of the queen hogan's ambassadors coming into my mind i suddenly resolved that the tea cup was going to be the place where i was going to put this sort of play for kind of symbolism in the painting. take out and many other details also can be weighed into this portrait of her mother. mary an instant hit when the national portrait gallery is b.p. portrait award in 2018 with an angel at my table and found new founds in government

is the reason effectively why i was commissioned to paint a portrait of the queen but i think also the fact that it's a portrait of of an elderly woman painted we sort of dignity and respect i think made him feel comfortable and safe that i was the right person the 94 year old monarch inspires artists around the world numerous portraits of the queen have been made since she was crowned in $953.00 and they traditionally divide people's opinions in july 2020 1000000 iska for its work was officially presented to the queen by a video called with your majesty's commission miriam it will be a picture of you know just. as a. just an absolute pleasure to meet a homeowner and then a chance to see it and see it and it looks very happy she seemed to be smiling from

ear to ear and she looked very relaxed and i think the general consensus was that she really liked the portrayed so so you know that was lovely. graham esque if it will never forget this very special commission all the moments she spent with the queen. music fans in france and around the world are remember. bring singers yet keiko who has died at her home aged 93 keiko is iconic for her raspy voice her signature black dresses and for putting the writings of existentialist authors to music leave you with the music now that made her famous thanks for watching. i know. there's a little bit in my you need. to be told in.
