warm welcome now we start at the stuttgart international festival of animated film the 28th edition is getting underway with a diverse virtual program it features the world's best animated features discussions with the people who made them and of course award ceremonies but one of the most popular elements is the short film program many of this year's shorts deal with issues that have special significance right now. the gray winged blackbirds harmed the common black bird making the entire range of black but species now extinct. what would the world be like if all the beauty of nature could only be seen in museums this animated film takes species loss of plants and animals due to pollution and environmental destruction to an extreme at some point nature strikes back with a pandemic but the film sad beauty was made in 2019 before the coronavirus pandemic

. i did not know that covert 19 was coming and it doesn't deal with a fires in this film but we're for bacteria and you will see that for the story that this important difference is the title suggests it's a sad story but it challenges you to find some consolation in a certain kind of beauty. the film's unmistakable message is that we humans cannot destroy nature completely and we can only survive with nature not in opposition to it. in empty places the somber chords of beethoven's moonlight sonata provide the soundtrack as machines operate the perspective expands showing spaces

utterly devoid of people what now seems like a metaphor for lockdowns was actually also completed before the pandemic it's a melancholy meditation on machines continuing in their mechanical loops independent of the humans whose lives they were meant to improve. to polar bears flee their home and arrive in the world of brown bears. the animated short migrants addresses the heavy topics of climate change the migrant crisis and racism so it's french creative team deliberately opted for a playful aesthetic style. reuse of clothes and stop motion style as it's to cover these highly charged and

very sensitive topics. these artistic choice were made better reason they with younger holden's and then discus and sing about these problematic. and the filmmakers cleverly use images that have become part of our global visual memory to bring their message home. combining slapstick with better satire fan ice features a t.v. presenter and his camera man she's the. spaceship and. because it's going to get. this year stuck out festival of animated film features a strong program of short films with a lasting impact. but the sound output is off

a problem you had. peace with but there are. i'm joined now by my colleague edward kennedy a lot of thought provoking content there are in a far cry from tom and jerry for myself when did animation become so serious well they've always been animated films that have dealt with difficult topics but they are certainly coming into the mainstream arch more often nowadays it's interesting because you have on the one hand these blockbuster superhero films that are based on comics with real live actors that are actually quite frivolous but on the other hand you have animated films the reputation of being cute and kitschy that are actually quite gritty and taking on serious topics so lot of diversity why do you think filmmakers that choosing to confront political issues using animated films especially i think animated films people associate them with childhood so they are

easy to emotionally connect with of course we do want to reach some young people with some of these issues and it also helps that you can have genderless or graceless characters in these films or as we saw in one of the films their use and the characters to emphasise with the killers human behavior not so animal farm my quince by the way has already picked up quite a few prizes but major animation studio productions have also been telling important stories. from the 26th took this car in order to discuss both sexism and racial discrimination it won the best animated film oscar and took in a $1000000000.00 in the box office pixar soul which won the best animation oscar this year also tackled racism and the central character the

1st african-american lead in the pixar film by the way it was based on a real life new york city jennifer. so that's the high end of also gives emerging filmmakers a platform where the production values due to very high. just think you're right in general but there are quite a number of films in the festival that hark back to a more in the tradition for example what will future humans look like as a different kind of artistic vision animated illustrations drawn on paper it looks at how humans might evolve in the future quite unsettling i have to say but generally even student films these days are of a very high standard this is well illustrated by a remake of this famous 1969 the animation of newland

the god. 69 version of course. here. is the remake in this year's festival. to say i actually prefer the richard north but you can see the amazing leap forward even in the animations of my over the years right adrian the best was getting underway now we hope our viewers will enjoy it we thank you for a very animated discussion thank you. more good news for art lovers now especially those in rome the vatican museums have finally reopened to visitors to limit numbers and the times are being staggered these are just must have their tempers just taken when mosques yet since of international tourism means it's

a rare chance for the city's residents to have some of the world's greatest went to science masterpieces to themselves. a collection of all. tunes from the home of the late japanese fashion designer takada kenzo has been put on show in paris ahead of a new options that to take place next week the carter founded the world famous kenzo brand of clothing skin care and because he died last october aged 81 after catching 19. now to oppose a few that made its debut on the 5th day of the 5th month of $921.00 this week it's celebrating its 100th birthday when asked what she wore to bed martin monroe famously oncet just a few drops of chanel. over the years rivals of common gone but the classic post seems with its highly guarded secret ingredients has stood the test of time.

the formula for one of the world's best known perfumes is known only to a few people one of them is olivier house perfume or for chanel over a century has passed since coco chanel set out to develop a perfume unlike any other chanel number 5 among the more than 80 high quality compounds are tuberose jasmine and this was new synthetic aldehyde so. if she wanted an artificial per year she compared a fragrance with a dress because a dress is also created from different elements that's why should know number 5 is so different in its style and composition based around the floral aroma boosters and all the other chanel perf use that followed were like that. here in southern france jasmine stretches to the distant hills these blossoms are reserved exclusively for the production of chanel number 5 several times

a year olivia push comes from paris to cross. the blossoms are harvested in the early mornings from august to october and taken to a nearby factory for immediate processing. $350.00 kilos of blossoms yield only about one kilo of pure jasmine extract. just mint may well be the most important element in the identity of should now number 5. in the early 1920 s. she asked him to create a scent from the finest of compounds these are most often extracted from blossoms and of those the jasmine from grass is the finest. coco chanel and her new fragrance revolutionized the perfume world just as she had the fashion world before in the 1950 s.

the simple but elegant part of the permanent collection of new york city's museum of modern art. regarded 5 as her lucky number. that she presented her collections on the 5th of may the 5th month of the you. the number 5 great significance for her. and so she felt immediately drawn to the sample number 5. from the iconic american starlet marilyn monroe to french academy award winner. many of the most beautiful women in show business have done advertising for the legendary scent . the pandemic has put a damper on plans for a big celebration for chanel number 5. but nothing can change the fact that 100 years ago. created a fragrance that has since become one of the most successful and popular on earth.

green friends on the coast and to me it's clear remains true. solutions are out that. join me for a deep dive into the green transformation for me to food for the plants. alaska arctic is one of the most remote areas off the u.s. it's also a region that has been particularly ravaged by the coronavirus and all the help they need to recover is flying to the rescue. ford you call it is providing vaccinations to surrounding villages and aid workers can only access the areas by plane or by snowmobile in fact alaska is currently vaccinating at a faster rate than any other state in the u.s.

how is this possible. and. there aren't any doctors in ford you call but there is deborah mccarthy the health centers director she's responsible for the area's 500 residents we have to forgo a lot snow slopes instead of asphalt roads no pumps no restaurants no fast internet this is what normality looks like 8 miles north of the arctic circle. i think for most people actually why i peer is pretty full.

on i mean people work hard you know everybody has to get where they everybody has to go through and 13 everybody goes fishing most people have guard and it's a close knit small community i mean it's like we were really to tell most everybody it's of course now like that where you know if you're going to if you live someplace else or in a city or even just a bigger town that is excessive all by road you know where we're sort of on an island here and everybody is very close. this is one reason why the virus has claimed 4 times as many indigenous lives in alaska compere to urban whites. deborah has a lot on her mind when she goes to the health center every morning namely how to protect people here from the virus as quickly as possible it's been a few weeks since vaccinations opened up to everyone over the age of 16 much

earlier than in most other states same day appointments are available without waiting i'm sure. so your arm might be a little bit sore. some people have more soreness than others so easy to tell people pick the arm that you don't. really need to use today is ok deborah and her team have already immunized more than half of the village concerned about high death rates the health center received the vaccine from the u.s. government and the indigenous health insurance fund now there are vaccine doses in abundance. it's amazing we have a couple 100 doses we've pretty much finished after the charter tomorrow we will be finished with the villages and then we just have to finish for u.

conn go and we didn't think we would be able to do this tell the summer you know get everybody then. deborah takes us to her home a small wooden house on the outskirts of town people here are content living without much. deborah has already seen much of the world the daughter of a white father and an indigenous mother she lived in germany for several years when her father served in the army before you can has always been her home when the 1st cold cases broke out it was easy for deborah to shield herself from the rest of the world because she lives alone with her son but for most families quarantining is almost impossible because they live in small homes and the virus spreads rapidly. it was pretty scary for everybody it was kind of. a really big unknown you know

how bad is it going to get here people were thinking oh my you know the grandmas and grandpas thinking oh it this is going to be like 918 and it's going to wipe out whole villages so that's kind of what everybody was preparing for so of course people were scared the kids were scared we were worried at the clinic you know we don't have ventilators if somebody needs oxygen or c.p.r. what are we going to do there was a lot of preparation going into it. that summation day has arrived the team is making the final preparations before our own trip to the villages nurse kimberly and and is carrying 50 doses of the modern a big scene in her luggage and she hopes that this will bring the state of emergency to an end. one person gets it here that's you know that's 5 percent of the population almost so that one household pretty much can cause for the whole

village to shut down that means nobody hauling water nobody hauling fuel nobody you know you're not leaving your house to go get stuff that you need ok it's going to start doing 20 minutes would be a tight limits the flights are expensive and time consuming so the team tries to vaccinate as many people as possible on a single trip the aid workers who come today won't return for 4 more weeks. this is another reason why even with many villages situated in the middle of the wilderness alaska is the fastest stage when it comes to vaccinating residents in the u.s. they are approaching vina tie on the banks of the yukon there's hardly any infrastructure no cell phone networks in the supermarket and most importantly no road access. the yukon is the lifeline for villages in the arctic in the summer it provides

salmon upon which many residents here depend in the winter it resembles an ice desert. a snow slope services landing strip. there are 2 cars in the village and one of them is the ambulance. in the winter of the snowmobile is the most important means of transportation it's just a short drive up to the health center.

food fuel clothes everything has to be flown in here today it's the vaccines turn to be. 20 villagers are already waiting inside word has spread about how dangerous the virus is here too so no one in being a time needs to be convinced about being vaccinated. right. did you guys read the. brochure thing about whether or not ok you know you're going to get some side effects. or for. whatever. i'm good at it. yet here. we've been anticipating to get our 1st right and we are so happy to finally

get it and we thought it's going to you know hurt but not know. if there were then the vaccination marks the end of a long period of isolation finally meeting friends again finally partying again. they are. ok after the shot a sticker and some warm words. you know congratulations lady. but i did not see. florence or all birds is next like most of the village back he belongs to the indigenous which in tribe ok if you read the information see for many years he has relied on his strong constitution but in time of the pandemic he wants to play it safe after all there aren't any doctors or ventilators in vina

thai either you are done i'll see you in 4 weeks. is pretty important i mean. both of them were illegally. you would have to get sick or you know if it would prevent possible ization that's good you know. warren's takes us to his home. we use his quad bike to get to the edge of the forest of the 200 person village. there are no roads here during winter you drive on a snow slope and in summer on a meadow. he lives alone in a locked cabin with his son for the past year he hasn't been allowed to leave the village the tribal government imposed strict rules to protect the community from the virus laurence roberts says that the modern lifestyle is what makes people so

vulnerable to the pandemic. we don't have no cut off by contact and we're all we're doing is just basically travelling with ballparks and that here and there and probably should move or something and that's where we settle down for a month. you know try to me this is what it. took me when i listen to your i didn't come out of there of over 10 years for. it was much healthier lifestyle you know that i knew that i experience never get 2nd in your army with you know it all. back and forth you can the village has come together at the traditional spring carnival for the 1st time since the penn demick began there hasn't been a cold case here for 2 months. the coronation of the princess is one of the year's highlights.

up until recently deborah i'm a card you would not have expected to see this much normality even though sled dogs are racing again this year. i feel very fortunate i mean we hear about other places that are don't even have all of their health care providers vaccinated yet and we were all vaccinated and in december for the most part i think the majority of us and everybody here and in the other villages feel like it's the beginning of the end. by summer life and the rest of the us will be as secure free as it is in the villages in alaska arctic circle.

probably than 60 on our fields is under threat as more and more seen by seminars. monocultures keep spreading to the detriment of our health i'm not somehow ecosystems. how can we raise our understand unaids traditional scenes and cooperate same in ecuador is leading the way global 3000 and. 90 minutes on d w. whole mobile whole. teasley . cheerfully. don't move would simply be nice to begin.

to discover. to. subscribe to a documentary on you tube. and. are we alone it's a fundamental question of humanity trying to figure out whether or not. life existed on mars pretty clear water was there and quite abundance while that would be interesting so on mars the atmosphere is $100.00 of what we have here on earth it's very very cold at the fast it's like antarctica you could imagine bringing some supplies and you know if you do then to build a little self-contained pressured vehicle or vessel which would be on the surface there are things like oxygen that you're going to. from the atmosphere to help make

living possible. if you want to think of humanity if we really want to survive burr ever we're going to have to move off the earth eventually i know that seems a little crazy but you've got to start somewhere. this is d w news and these are out top stories and metro accident in mexico city has left at least 24 people dead and dozens injured authorities say an elevated section of the round system collapsed as a train was passing over it on monday night local residents had previously expressed concerns of.
