8:36 am
from my 1st documentary be said that in of so with a cash out, we wanted to create a film that had the backdrop of war, but still had enough humour and live and whatnot and questioning of revolution. and when it means that it means a lot to us and it was amazing that the film actually also did up in huge festival and went around the way math, constantine, voc and christopher own when they participated in the 2019 nala thomas program that worked together on the international co production, caffeine known constantine balkans, editor and christ of own as cinematography. catherine puts for spotlight on people fighting for their survival. poor children in the slums of a root like 12 year old zane's. that was the moment when you realized that the section that we're doing that the reality of surpassing the fiction that we're doing and that made everyone realize how important this fictionalized version that
8:37 am
we're creating here is and that these topics do need to be talked about children without childhood you see those goods on the streets everywhere you'd see families also between lanes and on the highway. you're just just ignore them. you just treat them like animals or like ghosts that that don't exist, but they're everywhere. yeah. nonprofessional actons were plucked from the streets and much of the film was shot from them. perspective. it was not so much the story, but the ra, direct and truthful way of telling the story that made a film so exceptional. in 2018 at one the jury prize at the cannes film festival and in 2019 it was nominated for an oscar. it's easy to blame people, but it's much harder to understand why they act the way that they act. what is
8:38 am
wrong with the system that makes them act this way? how were they brought up? we come up with them again this year, but not together. caffeine now may not have one the best foreign film oscar 2 years ago, but the nomination propelled their careers forward and christopher own one, the germans, cinematography of constantine bulk, is currently in a root conducting research. while kristof is on flight of insurer, they were both invited to join the academy of motion, picture, arts and sciences after the oscar nomination. the whole experience in l. a. for us, with a door open or even beyond the academy, what it meant, 1st and foremost, and this is very important to us. they are to get to put in the doors that we signed with an amazing agency there. and they set up a lot of meetings and they really encouraged us to, to take that step. and especially for, for you, chris, i get kids from, from,
8:39 am
from across the world at the moment to choose from which, which is what i would have been looking for. last summer he was the cinematographer for the international co production, the man who sold his skin chinese submitted it as its entry for the best foreign film oscar. and it made a short list of 15 films. yeah, this is enough story to bekins in syria. some ali is in love with my daughter when henry and henry 3 says we have had to deal with the way that you can use the revolution will be his undoing. the police will hunt him down, crossing him to please let no one stays behind. mary's

8:41 am
the signature. we had that idea of having each scene look like if they thing and have the be like a gallery or a museum you're, you're, you're walking onto and looking at those different pieces of arts. so the, so the idea was to have seen of the different the list it was so we created those in the data from each other, but also all of them connected. and i was scared. he knew my biggest care sitting this movie well, that at the end it turns out like a music video because it's all not because i've seen looking that different a deceitful off world stage in a visually lash fashion. the critically acclaimed film celebrated it's premier at
8:42 am
the venice film festival. it also stars monica bellucci, cynical gallery. oh no. here's me. this part of the speech, the real, what is inside. i almost feel like you guys were sort of like subconsciously inspired by the artist that did this in real life in the he had to the real guy. the work is called tin. he, he turned the human being into a piece of art which inspires caused her to write the script. and i feel like, yeah, that twisted in this is, is still in how you guys translated that with your visual beauty and the wickedness of the group. while christopher own was busy shooting a co production in the summer of 2020 constantine bark was in bay route. on august the 4th 2020 the same day that 2750 tons of ammonium nitrate exploded in the port. he witnessed the nightmare up close
8:43 am
and then the mushroom appeared out of nowhere and then took a few seconds before the shock wave it out. but you know, i think the scary thing was not knowing what's going on as to what does this mean, this war and someone attacking or what was happening were just so cool if and didn't realize what was going on. ah, ah months later, it's still unclear who is to blame for this, arrested catastrophe, but many blame the politicians and have lost faith in the state. the 3rd row for less than 2 minutes. while i see the queen learns that men's
8:44 am
young people in particular don't see a future in a root or 11 or 90 more. constantine bulk agitates a video has mutation trans. i think that the fraction really go beyond the physical destruction and really destroy something. and people in, in our friends or family in their hearts and souls, and that destruction is much, much harder to fix if it's even possible than the physical destruction of constantine bulk. once to process the images interrupted research on a project and together with an open ease, woman is developing the script for botox, a root, a dog satire, to take aim at the widespread corruption in the country. it's a film from the fashion scene that tries to highlight corruption and methodism

behind the beautiful veneer. financial support for the development of the screen play has already been approved in germany. constantine vol. plans to shooting a route into yes. if we want to help in any way, it's by telling stories from here. and it's also by making a film here and employing our friends in the, in the film industry and like, you know, bringing, there's so much talent here. so the best thing we can do is make something here and shoot the the i mean there's young and they are carrying the economy made in bangladesh,
8:46 am
towns the story of shima seems to be working in a factory. an accident occurs a colleague dies, and shima realizes how defenseless the work is on the job. but i'm going to some of those to be home and talk to somebody about this other guy only the women can help themselves. you know quite a piece of them. i got a call about being that he said, when they asked mushing because they thought provoking statements by the activist st. same and fuels shamans anger. she decides to form a union. it's based on
8:47 am
a true story that has been stress. dalia director ruby at hussein met her while researching the textile industry. when i met her, she immediately expressed interest. and i also felt that her life story was also very dramatic. that leaving home when you're 12 and coming to the city already said something about the young woman, if she won't get defeated, you know, she will. and that's what i think really attracted me to her. that i was like, wow, you know, she has that sir. there's something special about her when i was writing or talk to her a lot. and of course the script we shared with her. she lives in the rehearsal with our actors. she talked to how to operate the sewing machine. so we became, office became friends, you know, the actors and, and so we all wanted to share the story together with the film dahlia convinced one
8:48 am
because to form a union, if we don't want to do it again, we don't know if it is going is affected or whatever it is, i'm a local local so i wanna know what i'm working with. no, no, but i think that when things got difficult, if people started losing their job. so the boss finding out that's when most danielle, that her turn is her enemies. because then they're like, no, i don't wanna lose my job because i can feed my family to feed my children. it's really important that i have to i think these women, these young women are very much aware of their right. but maybe a lot of them do not have it in them to fight to the end. you know, takes
