every person who stands the european values, space, democratic values and humanistic values. stay with when culture meets politics, tensions can arise. we visit the artist mohammed, dublin, and egypt, who in spite of government repressions ruins, the caricature museum and we examined the rolled images, played at the $972.00 munich olympics when a terrorist attack shot the world. but 1st, we meet the ukrainian conductor and asked her what it means to make art during war . ah,
12:32 am
o, one of ukraine's most famous musicians is back in germany. asana need isn't thyroid just one year after she became the 1st female conductor to perform here at the esteemed classical music festival. but the world has since changed, that this is really a tragedy. and i think this tragedy affects every one. not only people living in ukraine, but every person who stands for european values, democratic values, and humanistic values that the democrat dish about the whole money does she have out there? state the my now guy, my entire family is in ukraine or of course it affects me too, but they're off. i worry about my family every day oregon on mine, the anger hurt again. rushes war of aggression weighs heavily underneath here and by roach to supposed to concentrate on her art while back at home. bombs falling and people are dying there sir, but the
12:33 am
o. this also affects us as artists very strongly anymore because at some point she begin to have doubts about art and, and even humanistic values there and, and human istation about that. but the need keeps on despite these doubts, and she points for her beloved homeland in her own way. like shortly after the russian invasion, at a solidarity concert for ukraine in berlin. yo ah, at the beginning of 2022. the name became the chief conductor and bolona. she's the 1st woman to head, the italian opera house there. her orchestra plays music by ukrainian composer. you reship jenko. it's one of the many concerts to ukraine she's conducted since the war began. ah,
12:34 am
this is emma allies, as emotionally, it's extremely difficult. alonzo. you look for an explanation it, but for me it's been helpful to remind myself that they were also was and revolutions in the 18th and 19th century or 9 to the island. that gap as could he go on the w 2 on and yet about that they were also all of these great composers who are still relevant to us to day relevancy and, and who had the idea of saving people. yeah, it day of saving humanity. i read them gap, pardon something asana you need managed to save. was her passion project the ukrainian youth orchestra, founded by her in 2016 i tried the argon hobbies done in 2 days. i'd organized a zip code with the youth orchestra foster. at least it was terrible to see how my musicians i had these wonderful young, talented people who we've gathered from all over ukraine into one orchestra. to see these people have always looked me straight in the eyes when playing music. now
12:35 am
exposed to this brutality mahony directly now, and in some cases in life threatening situations is brutally that yet the advise of it, which lebrands, but broad dead is his own, qualifies. this soon call was a shock for me and talked somewhat calling from bunkerville basements in mind. you out of some said that they couldn't unpack their violin yet have been monday because maybe they wouldn't have the 5 minutes to pack it away again like that. i don't either because every 10 minutes there are sirens and rocky to dogs in milton gib, sir said n on the katanen. oh, luckily, most of the youth orchestra musicians were able to leave the country and continue to receive lessons beneath also toured with them in europe. one emotional highlight was playing maria city by salton o massey from key iv dedicated to the victims of the bombing of the mariel po theater said to contact involving your let my last concert in bolona. i performed
12:36 am
beethoven's 9th symphony at should. it was unsettling to re read, shall, as larry exact, where it says it, all people become brothers, aha, amend. at the end, it says that the shouldn't be tyrants or executioners on, hang it against tyrants and dictators like great artists of the past. osama linny will not give up for 1972 munich olympics were supposed to be the happy games. but the terrorist attack on the israeli team turned them into a tragedy, captured and broadcast. but the press, what road did the media coverage play less than 30 years after the end of the nazi era. the 1972 olympics and munich was supposed to be an opportunity for the young federal republic of germany to present itself as a modern open and cosmopolitan democracy. germans wanted to show that the nation
12:37 am
responsible for the holocaust had changed for the better law. dempsey, woman and for people in germany were so looking forward to getting some recognition from the world that they hoped as if they were really gratified enthusiastic and proud. as that's good. oh, the design of the 1972 games was a clear departure from the marshal. look of the last olympics. germany had hosted in 1936 when soldiers had marched 4 and saluted hitler, witless favorite director. lenny reference style delivered the desired aesthetics complete with steely strong bodies and to rowing poses the 1972 games and to show that was history. the country was proud to welcome thousands of athletes from a 121 countries in the specially built olympia, par ah,
12:38 am
poor. he's like the architecture was meant to symbolize that and especially as it offers a striking contrast to balance olympic stadium. bang berlin's 1936 olympic stadium was an imposing edifice that embodied the nazis mc la mania. this is its airy counterpart built for the 1972 games that spanning the stadium in munich was even described as a modern 10th rift. and as a 10th for circus, there might only be in town for a short time before leaving the city again. i left that file. it was supposed to symbolize lightness and transience in courts by and is tied them bullies. yes. the roof appears to float weightlessness over the top. it's transparent and elegant design reflected the game spirit as wendy and farm. if you think of the brightly colored seeds and even the flags in green and blue, the whole visual conception of the olympic games vital that will,
12:39 am
i'd say this design really captures the image and they wanted to present. i las vegas birth committed a visionary logo. park posters and plenty of personal tones that stood in stark contrast to the nazis color schemes. the design of the pictograms was cutting edge. and there was the cute little mascot, but excellent cloudy. the uniforms of the limbic hostesses were from the same color palette, including a modern joyful blue shallow took no box daughter, a young jewish high school graduate, worked as a hostess to her though it is it she got this beautiful light blue suit on the young lady's duties involved looking after the guests of cleveland. it was a very nice job and she got to know a lot of people. she was very happy with love for the young people. it was great, a kind of journey out into the world and the bed. and the world was watching. never
12:40 am
had so many reporters flocked to a sporting event. it's spectacular days were meant to be seen by everyone. the world was invited to munich and ready to accept germany again including israel, even athletes whose families were victims of the holocaust made their way to munich . for the israeli team, it was a, it was a hugely symbolic gesture just to go. and i think it was maybe one of the 1st times that a at a sizable israeli sporting contingent had gone to germany to complete and so on. i think that i think that i think, you know, the germans were very aware of that at the high, symbolically important this was any, is that a alicia father to see in israeli flag over the olympic stadium and munich after such a relatively short time really was a sensation fernandez and everything was working that the little tiny of it was thoughtful, restrictive security plan might dampen this euphoria and nothing was supposed to
12:41 am
recall german militarism and the police station. no one wanted to hear the experts, warnings, although there was evidence of possible attacks. and so on september 5th, palestinian terrorists were able to enter the olympic village unhindered. the terror group at the black september held 11 members if the israeli team hosted in their own rooms and shot 2 of them for the assailants principal demand, the release of more than $200.00 palestinians, most of whom were imprisoned in israel negotiations with the german government went no way as the terrorist attempted to fly away with the hostages. the situation escalated into a fierce fire fight. when it was over 5 palestinian terrorists were dead. but so were the 11 israeli athletes. the german policeman. at the memorial service, avery brundage president of the international olympic committee stated the game
12:42 am
buffalo. it was a highly controversial decision in the end, it was a refusal to bow to terrorism and to defense at the olympic ideal as the world looked on. because a 1000000000 view, as in 98 countries were watching live, it was an unprecedented media spectacle. and as if to nicholas meetings with, i me that's wild. lindsey from william it was the start of a new era of multi media there found in the 1970s sales of t. v has got a huge boost due to be olympics, as, as you can really see how the sporting events increase sales of quality bees, especially guided us pop, found in of a 4000 reporters were on site nearly twice as many as in mexico, 4 years before and they reported live to a world audience morning, noon and night, that set an ideal stage for the attackers,
12:43 am
allowing them to forcibly redirect the global spotlight onto the middle east conflict. like an attack. after the attack, a ton of black september's members said, attacking the vatican or the white house wouldn't have given us the same media attention as the olympic games did. because the press was already on site. well, unless they were already there, i live. i'm from around the wild, divine national life stopped by an international audience was already gathered in front of that t v's and i was watching adult and the terrorists and take advantage of that time and found the f as i'm it is. and that's what the games will well on to way when the 1st reports of the crisis in the olympic village came trickling out, no one knew what to make of the situation. neither the organizes nor the reporters . from today's perspective, that's really hard to imagine. the games were carrying on in the stadium at the same time as there was this hostage crisis, just hundreds of meters away. there was a dead athlete lying in the,
12:44 am
in one of the apartments there emitted a few 100 yards from that, from, from where the games were continued. they had never been a scenario. anything like it in the history of life reporting broadcast is around the world, switched back and forth between the sports events and the hostage crisis. journalist scramble to secure the best spot. but reliable information was still hot to come by. shallow took no block found after the media that as a hostess on the olympic side, her daughter could be in danger too. as he later today, she was already gone. when i heard on the radio, how there had been an attack, and they couldn't report any more details on it. mechanically it is finished. i cried because that news didn't give you the slightest idea what was going on. and they didn't know if it is something else coming. what's going to happen?
12:45 am
that's why it wasn't until the evening that the cold came shall not his daughter was safe, but for the relatives of these riley athletes, the nightmare continued. most of the journalists was sports reporters, entirely overwhelmed. they provided running commentary on the events following every step, even the positions of the snipers. we see the footage of the police on the rooftops going, pleasant address like athlete said, case they're seen there. you are just look at their athletes on the roof. why they would be out on the roof. i don't know. but then at a certain point, we realize that the palestinians can see them on television, and that the germans have forgotten to tell the television station is to stop filming. as asked who the terrorists had found out that side as we're getting in position 3, press coverage and reacted to that information. and that's when it dawned on everyone. okay, we have to do something. we can't just sit back and keep rolling our cameras and
12:46 am
basically give the terrorists the heads up. yet the journalist remained on the scene of the 1st live act of terrorism to be broadcast around the world. even as a hostage situation progressed into a knee by military, airport members of the media swarmed the area, making it difficult for the special task force to get through. this too took place before rolling cameras around midnight. a government spokesman wrongly announced that all the terrorists were dead, and all hostages had been rescued. his source, a false report from an international news agency, a mistake that hasn't been explained to this day. 3 hours later, the terrible truth emerges. all 11 israeli hostages had been killed. the massacre left the world stunned, bringing shame and embarrassment to the german authorities involved. so many people ended up dead largely because of the bad handling of it by the german authorities. but this was the tick, the only tragic becomes in front of the world. the whole world was,
12:47 am
was watching this war was holding their breath. ah. the trauma of munich still echoes through the collective consciousness. 50 he is on the scars remain. the he is asthma like that. a very brundage quote on the games must go on. be that there is such an images that dominate our collective memory of that event long. and those are a product of the media does not the media like this image, a photo of a terrorist on the balcony than they it's, he does that. i'll alice good. if you look at the holiday eyes, and the very straight lines either is, and that those evoke feelings of death orders for drama, the anthea, i'm vida a fact. even now they reflect the feelings people associate with the attack. it is not intact for bonham. filmmaker kevin mcdonald felt the tragedy of september the
12:48 am
5th had all the elements of a thriller. his academy award winning documentary is compiled entirely from archive footage. i wonder if you could make a documentary using all real material. real people actually also operated like a thriller, but told a story like a thriller. we're finding so much archive footage everywhere in the world. india, japan. i think in the film to something like 50 countries. presently during his meticulous research, mcdonald found countless inconsistencies, cold his documentary raised some uneasy questions with decision makers in germany, and i then refer brendan dunn as are the minister. i think i have to go to look for what the producers do. and then i went to the captain of the police, sir, a company there and said, do something that didn't do anything. i have not of the film shows the disastrous entanglement between in german politics and mass media at the time
12:49 am
germany trying to show the world that it's changed. that you know, you can have a totally pacifists peaceful games where even the, the police officers were dressed in these blue hurry, he kind of welcoming new uniforms. so they didn't look militaristic. and then this event happens and everyone phrases like a, like a rabbit, caught in the headlights because it's the worst possible thing that can happen. a tragedy. inadvertently facilitated by germany's desire to show the world, it was a democratic and rehabilitated country. from munich, we go to cairo where we meet an artist who finds inspiration out of the streets who doesn't shy away from being political. and it was just awarded to good to meddle. kyra, a megacity built from concrete and the dreams of 20000000 people. mohammed of le chronicles life here on paper and canvas. his portraits of people from ordinary
