gonna spoil well too for now he says. i am ready mike a junior welcome to the program more blood on board the wines campin true uganda's pop star 10 politician says office says short live rounds at his car on tuesday his music producer danielle oil what was injured by a bullet wind was heading to a company in venue north of the capital kampala he tweeted our lives i mean danger after blocking us on the way to jinja they blocked the main route on diverted us to a remote wrote a safety set into a kill sports the shots the tires of my car and directly into our windscreen

narrowly missing on our bows on my driver. this is the 2nd violent confrontation and as many days on monday police used tear gas to disperse the crowd supporting board while this ahead of generous election when wind hopes to unseat president during which 70 who's been in power for more than 3 decades while the white house called off his campaign we asked people in kampala how they felt about the upcoming election. the current political situation feels like a war. it's like we've gone back to the volatile days of. the new. president. so we're not sure what it's going to be like and i can tell you no one is sure maybe except those who disagree to start. with

soon we hope for a great uganda in the future but if we slide into violence that will be terrible. even the security forces should handle the politicians with dignity rather than intimidating them with guns. i'm on this i'm joined by a christian a political analyst with 15 years experience in monitoring elections around the world he joins us from kampala uganda hello said now human rights lawyer in uganda described tuesday's events the nation attempt on what you whine is that fair but i think. to the lives of active politicians during this time that we are in we need to actually agree that this is a very complicated election that we're in right now the context of coffee does not even make it any better i think i want to say that so many lives and death rate. people who are actively involved in the politics but also the public as well and i

think we can see clearly and increasingly that the enforcement of the 19 prevention guidelines in uganda right now in the context of the political campaigns is ticking on your trieste from actually you know preventing the 1000 spread to actually using it as a tool sometimes to actually target the opposition politicians now. what has been the government's response to this latest attack well we haven't seen any government response to yesterday's events what is currently happening is the team of national unity platform and its head. robot. apparently meeting the electoral commission to sort of force your way forward and i think one of the critical things is that i think these need for the electoral

commission to provide guarantees and commitment that once the national unity platform decides to go back on the campaign trail they'll be guaranteed that security will be guaranteed and the events incidents of violence will not happen again what many ugandans actually calling for right now ok now we normally hear more about bobby wine and his supporters being arrested or talked and unfortunately even killed is there any blame on the side to i think it's not just a blame game i think it's about politicians. political leaders that have actually not. the guidelines that were put in place by the electoral commission and it's not just bobby wine alone i think days even many. politicians that i have openly flouted the

19 prevention guidelines that have been set out by the election management body and i think the blame goes on to them. it's not fair ok to single out bobbie why not on i think it's important to note that all the other politicians many of them how flouted these rules but they haven't gotten the wrath that i think we seem to see so much associated with the opposition politicians ok now quickly before you go what you wind has suspended his campaign what happens now well. campaigns are suspended so we await to see what the wind and his team resolve together with the electoral commission i think it is important was a good state to suspend the campaign and seek to draw a commitment from the electoral commission on the government side that we will now move into a more peaceful electoral process a more peaceful campaigning period and not one that is filled with incidents of violence ok our lives are actually lost where people of people are wounded and

where people affected and fearing to actually participate in the electoral process ok crisp and political analyst in kampala uganda thank you. when ghana discovered oil in 2007 politicians made promises. stop for once it might come true and bring progress but has that been the case so far. touch to the story. when only a was 1st discovered in ghana in 2007 dreams are flying sky high connoisseur oil reserves are a blessing and a curse at the same time. but what happens when the world of globalization and small african fishing villages meet. local farmer adam could be no hope for the best for his family and his village.

and within if we don't become selfish and take good care of our oil our future is good man's will be beautiful does overhand and you know about about adams big dream is to have a house with its own bathroom but at the time his village has no electricity or even running water. politicians and investors promise for that to change one of many promises. when oil drilling starts in the jubilee oil field and 2010 a berlin film team decides to observe the developments more closely nigerian animation artist. comments on the events by adding animation arts in explaining her personal point of view. modern bathrooms for fashion and. that sounds great. village where disappear. no one is complaining after all who will miss the most how's this. going to misspent

you water from the ocean for a shower. several years later the new modern village for farmers like adam could be in a still seems like a far away dream. about what they have not come yet we are still waiting for our new village. that we still have no electricity i have to walk 2 miles to get my phone charged. big oil promises what became of them. over a period of 10 years the filmmakers follow up on that question the documentary oil promises is a case study of globalization from the perspective of people who don't stop hoping that finally they to get their piece of the big pie. joining me now is.

nigerian german painter and i made sure that the mission work for this feature so how any of the black gold promises being delivered it will actually in my opinion a little bit who had to leave it's not everything was the lever because the promises were. made how they they displace people from need for a stance and all the small fishing villages promised them everything that they were going to get schools and everything in the end they have built just facilities for engineers from outside and high class guardians and then on the 2nd know. they promised them jobs like of hotels not be opened and they all have to i guess about 2000. job openings and in the end what happened the people spent money to learn to do these jobs but in the end what

happens the chinese company that cane to do the job they can with their own stuff i want to find out what made you decide to be a part of a film like this i decided to be a part of this because i am very critical about stuff like this you know i speak i speak my mind so in berlin produces i've worked with them before i've worked to berlin produces before so when they are approaching me and asked me if i wanted to be a part of this i found it very very interesting being especially that i come from nigeria which is an oil producing company contrie and we already know the effects of these oil things we know that it can cause a lot of issues and it's not easily manageable so i decide to be part of it in order to be able to comment on it with my animation ok now on that animation note

what rural does it really play in such a film. and emission play will be huge role in such a film because it kind of gives people a different view to what has happened in documentaries generally you use animation to relay things that were not got on camera things that happened in the past right and then in oil promises we wanted to use animation to also bring the such iroko aspect of a whole thing into it because you could see the whole fake the whole idea of discovering the oil and the promises that were made like beyond being an ultra modern town with 500000 inhabitants of extra costs is just plain. like a joke so the idea of using animation there was not just to document the things that we would see but also to comment on these aspects or use it as a matter for go to sue show the irony behind it so that

a leader would be able to look differently ok. nigerians are one painter and an inmate are many very spirit or thank you very much. and you can see the documentary on did use you tube channel that's all we have time for on the show if you want more fostoria go to our website. africa see you so. why are people forced to hide in trucks. there are many. there are many

answers. and there are many stories. make up your. double made for minds. welcome to news from the world of some culture up 3 decades after the release of the godfather 3 movie a new recount and hopefully shiny of a has been released or about that in a minute also coming up in the next quarter and. a new exhibition of the photographic. who in the post-war years pining it

a brand new genre documentation. and the remarkable tiny worlds of miniature. in the museum he created himself in front of. but we begin at the movies of course many cinemas around the world are closed at the moment but there are movies being released although this one isn't exactly new director francis ford coppola likes to revisit his films and 30 years after the release of the godfather part 3 he has been tinkering with this one the result has a new name the godfather coda the death of michael corleone. heres some classic cino. are always around. you. know i love it when they speak like that my colleague

is here with the details a new version of the godfather part 3 was the original actually in need of improvement well that depends a little bit on who you are some people think that the original is under appreciated because they had to exist alongside 2 bonafide a masterpieces in godfather one and godfather 2 both of those won best picture oscars and together garnered 9 oscars the godfather part 3 got 0 oscars the general consensus is that it was by comparison a disappointment with a convoluted plot and some mediocre acting not all. from the director's 18 year old daughter sofia coppola yes she got some really bad critics actually did she she did then that eventually prompted her probably to give up acting in take up directing of course she was very successful with the virgin suicides lost in

translation she has more than we deemed self and it has to be said that the role was key but it was quite a small rather i think that people back then were quite hyper critical because it was the director's daughter ok what's the new movie like doing it. proved well copula himself says it's an entirely new experience that is a bit of an exaggeration it's 12 minutes shorter and basically the same story an altered ending there is plenty that good in the movie any is definitely worth a 2nd look or indeed a 1st look many people out there might not have seen it yet but most reviews of the new version say it's different it's maybe somewhat improved but basically it's much the same but it remains a good movie by any standards ok now there's another story from the movie world that's hitting headlines at the moment that's why actor elliot paige best known for

many protagonists of that artistic iraq they were skilled at creating a legend around themselves although their faces remained largely on his breast self portrait did you. also have a shawl i. would like a self-taught they were they didn't have a studio. legend has it in the early days would go to exhibition openings with no film in his camera and pretend to take pictures just to make himself known. the new generation of artists was rising to prominence including klein who was just in barking on his blue it. doesn't sound all what's interesting is that today of course we see the likes of andy warhol robert rauschenberg tricia brown and nikita song file

a stars but back then they were just young people experimented with new ideas at us noise. these images these photographs were basically visual calling cards designed to raise the profile of it the contacts. kenda were fixtures of this vibrant scene. they accompanied warhol and his on to raj wherever they went even into that hotel rooms they shared in the artist's lives has shrunk with swiss painter and sculptor eva happy. shaun candour photographed thousands of artworks events and landmark exhibitions of have on card movements of the era. in the scrap yard where he collected the components for his kinetic sculptures. the geos pictures chart not just the dynamic developments in art but also in the audiences for that's all. the lens has disappeared and shot and one when you look at the images you can see that

take a look at this. saenz the renowned restaurant in paris is known around the world but why do they have a ready made tables here when there are neither waiters not get. this miniature version of the famous restaurant in the french capital was created by dan omar it took him a year to finish the handmade miniature. and i mean the idea is the new prime minister is an art form has existed for centuries and if you need me find in the ancient egyptian pyramids. in the 17th and 18th centuries you had minutes repeating it was usually depicted daily life. is a painting technical but also a 3 dimensional in many other the band on they aren't quite the model. in 2005 done omar opened his museum of miniatures in the heart of the lawns historic district it

was here in france as the 3rd largest city very arrived for an exhibition in 1809 bringing along 3 trucks bearing tiny artworks he immediately fell in love with the city. from an area of 2000 square meters visitors can see over 100 extremely realistic miniature scenes built by various european many tourists though the majority were made by done on more himself. oh my god for 11 years have i seen the miniature of the bally was particularly beautiful because it really is a pic the cityscape of luna which you can see through the windows of the opera house but not my favorite miniature is this leon bistro the whole scenery is full of little details and it's very precise in its depiction what really impresses me is the light as well as the individual objects in the room you can see how much work has been put into it. in addition to scenes from your done on mars.

basically replicated half the world but he's not short of ideas for future miniature projects. i saw a very atmospheric place a family lives. palace there are a lot of empty palaces there in the atmosphere using credible and in these fantastic hundreds of white sheets we in the wind it was really impressive. i'm currently working on a miniature of this and it will be a beautiful. lens natural history museum as a doll house in down on loans were gigantic skeletons are easy to handle and huge rooms oh rather cute viewers are stunned by his artwork even though or maybe because the scenes hardly differ from the real thing.
