the pandemic has led to a big drop in cruise liner traffic, most of the ships remain mord for maritime researchers. those calm waters mean a welcome opportunity to deepen their understanding of the world's oceans. scientist garryowen, son, has been studying light and noise pollution in the sea for years. the positive influence of the lockdown can be observed right here in tongue time, short delegate in court. recently spotted 2 or 3 pilot whales. and while that's not enough for an empirical analysis, one thing's for sure. i've never seen pilot whales so close to the city center. they're not the researchers use this device to assess the water quality off the coast of toronto time. this is a standard procedure, but the team also has other more ambitious things in mind. so they want to find out what impact this unaccustomed silence is having on the

underwater world. and on the behavior of everything, from the tiniest organisms to huge whales, how they hunt and find food and how they communicate now undisturbed by human made noise. then 3 or more us researchers, this is a unique opportunity. they're shipping traffic might be gradually increasing again . but for months, there was practically no human activity on the water. the researchers want to show how good this break is back for life under water. back in the extreme, north of norway, nature has a treat in store for the tourists. a school of pilot whales. they are known to pop up now and again in these arctic waters, but it's rare to see this many so close. it's certain to appreciate the true value. fee's creatures. i know everything in

life. you do have to protecting make sure you got back rich. life is enjoying the relative peace here, at least for the time being. at the end of the 2nd world war, a nazi germany lay in ruins. whole cities completely destroyed millions of people dead. they died in a war that raged worldwide instigated by adults, hitler and his regime after the warmth of the victorious powers, one of the perpetrators to face justice. and so they brought them before the 1st international military tribunal. it's been 75 years since the nuremberg trials were held and they had a special significance for those who survived the concentration camps like auschwitz. but, you know,

my name is peter your hungover dorsch. in 1940, the german army occupied transylvania. a short time later, we were all deported to auschwitz. with my entire family was murdered. there. we saw france from italy was deputy in occupied, poland, governor, general, poland, and politically responsible for every murder carried out there in $1039.00 to $145.00. if my name is renata vernon born toma, my father was assigned to be the defense counsel for i fled horse and bag hitless, chief ideologist, alfred hawes and bag and hans frank were among the leading nazis to go on trial in norm. back on november 20th, 945 joining him on drilling in the dark. many of the other big names in the nazi

party, had it ready disappeared by that point or like adults, hitler had committed suicide. nuremberg was the site of the annual party rallies. huge propaganda event designed to showcase the nazis power. those who had once enjoyed the adulation of the crowds, here at the rally grounds were now called to account for their actions a historical 1st. never before had the leaders of a state been forced to face trial for their actions. the germans were to be shown how a democracy works. alfred toma a retired judge was obliged by the americans to defend alfred always in back. he was chosen because there weren't enough lawyers deemed sufficiently on the tainted cannot. tahan sometimes accompanied her father to the courtroom. it was a tense and oppressive atmosphere as far as i was concerned, and filled with

a sense of disgrace. good ladan, they are most fear the worst are the charges leveled against the main war. criminals who are conspiring against world peace planning and waging a war of aggression, war crimes and crimes against humanity. the kind of missions in iraq initiated, none of the defendants entered a guilty plea right up to the last, the main war, criminals to knowledge there was any systematic attempt to annihilate the jews. it was through the trial that many germans learned the full extent of the nazis atrocities. nicholas franks, father, rice minister, hum's frank was dumped the butcher of poland. brewer's new sense of indignation about his atrocities within the family. how you know? no one felt my father deserved to be on trial in nuremberg number given,

but i had more the sense that he was rightly charged. on october the 1st, 946 came the verdict. 3 were acquitted. 3 sentenced to life forgot shorter prison sentences, and 12 was sentenced to death. the death penalties were carried out in the courts for much. i'm lazy, i'm soon after the virtex paid to god. just 14 years old at the time, followed to the trial against the men who had deported him, his mother and sister to the death camp at auschwitz. he was the only one who survived the cinema. that's where they showed it. they didn't show the hanging. you just saw them lying in coffins with a black and white striped rope around their necks. and the thought came to me. it's a necktie that they all deserve to be removed. i just don't think we germans would

have convicted those criminals at that time. or later, for that matter, the allies did it for us. i don't know how the trials would have gone if they had been carried out in a german court. then i'm dorchin get beached. the charges brought against the main war criminals that the norm back trials set a precedence that laid the groundwork for the international criminal court in the hague. the norm back trials are considered the birth of the international criminal law plus are you only thing that's positive about my father's criminal life? that it was partly because of him, least for charges were invented. products of the people like him to be put in the dark in a class trunk carries a photo of his executed father. he says, every time he feels even the slightest bit sorry for himself,

he remembers the pictures from fits. and then he feels the verdict reached at the nuremburg trials was the right one. and there's justice still means a lot to an excess funk, even after 75 years since the beginning of the cold $910.00 to make many people have been investing more time in their hobbies. they were less me is from switzerland. and her passion is a yearling. but she and her choir can no longer rehearse as freely as they used. so the risk of spreading the virus is just too high. so it's our land recently introduced stricter measures to curb the spread of the corona virus. and that has also affected life in vegas village of kunda. in the swiss alps. the secluded mountain village of condor stick in the swiss can't know beyond
