and that caused and under bleeding lid of an inch at their li, the radiologist had to be operated on 3 times. his brother told us shortly after he woke up from the last operation, the 53 year old was sentenced to death. his wife was forced under torture, to testify against him. the only proof that slay he is alive is his false confession. in his uncle is deeply concerned, the family hasn't been able to visit him since his imprisonment. 2 cases out of many, the highlight the brutality with which those in power in iran are dealing with processes . nevertheless, many iranians agree that is worth fighting for pro live in fi i we're going to speak now to see basha keybo who is an a rainy and german riser, filmmaker and activist her work is focused on women's rights and religion in iran,

where she was born and raised it's, it's really great to have you on welcome to our show. these death sentences are a clear and brutal warning from the regime. what do you think is keeping the protest going? you know, sanction, 1st of all, for having me today, the day of the human rights where i get goosebumps thinking even about it. all the rights are being abused and appearing, violated by the islamic republic. and these people, my people, my iranian people, go on the street and risk every thing to protect and to defend the human rights and not just for themselves, but for the world. and what keeps people going on the street is they have nothing to lose, nothing more to lose. 70 percent of people in iran are facing hunger

or near the low or at the poverty rate. and they have not much to lose. and one thing is very, very important to understand, having been born as a cert, 2nd forrest generation, in some cases under a repressive regime like that is la mic republic. every day, every, every time you leave the house, every time somebody rings the bell or makes a call to your phone, you have to fear that something terrible is going to happen to you. the young people in my country has become brazilian. nothing can scare them anymore. even guess cannot scare them anymore and they go out and be quite good. you're saying that the protesters have nothing more to lose. they,

it appears from what you're saying, that they're not going to back down. it appears the regime is not going to back down either. so with ny decide given ground. where do you expect this to will go? it's a very ugly situation and the regime exactly knows that they can not survive, but they are still killing people, a drowning regime. the only answer they have is to kill people and they want to, in my opinion, they want to gain time to get their money and their possessions out of the country . we have heard news in the past 2 days and we have had news from right in the beginning of the revolution that the high rank islamic republic leaders are already transporting out their possessions, money, gold, jewelry and so forth. and their families with private and secret fly lights. and

now they talk to venezuela, who gets her mission to live there with their families and they try to get out the positions. i think they are just trying to gain play. this is, this is the absurdity of this current situation these days, like you said, very rightly everybody knows. in the beginning, it was only as saying this regime is done this time the revolution will win. but now everybody knows and they themselves know that they are not going to come back to power anymore. but they are still killing people. it's just to gain time. it's just because it's like a fly that you have killed and it's fighting cba. i wanted just her. ask you finally about this execution of madison shikari, world leaders, including here in germany, have condemned his execution. dave announced fresh sanctions against iran. do you

think this is going to make any kind of difference at all? you know, i think whether it makes difference or not at this point is not even important. but what is crucially important? what is crucially important is that these socks and the leaders of the islamic republic, the criminals, the murderers, the child has the read hers that they know that they cannot to make one single step without the world seeing it. and without the world reacting to it. and i think that's what counts, and i am grateful to every country and it's people and it's leaders and governments who actually do react to every step that these criminal stake. and we're

grateful for your time. that was the filmmaker, an activist, se, bersh. i keep thank you very much. thank you for giving the people in iran voice and i am just a loud speaker. thank you. go to peru. now the new president there has appeared on national television at a military ceremony as she attempts to secure her grip on power. dina blew our tay replaced asteroid left his leader pedro castillo eleger. this week, castillo support is the staging protest, calling for his return. and bala white i is also the facing coals for early elections barrows, 1st female president, deena blue art there has a clear message. she is here to stay the state. she joe's a televised military breed alongside the dob browse of the armed forces and surrounded

by lawmakers who removed her predecessor from office just days earlier. a position of power from which she extended an olive branch to those protesting the ouster of the former president. i'm calling on all the sisters and brothers, what protesting it would probably with or without reason to come down if i have not caused the situation, my name, i know if i am digging this responsibility when it is because i am just fulfilling my constitutional role. well, i see the building up, the guys believe photo id with you while you are the says she is willing to discuss early elections, but she strongly convinced doors who have little faith in barrows, traditional political elite, you know, like we saw the situation in lima. what's happening with the scum in congress? dina bolo, are to his boast and giving herself the pleasure of being president. she's not the

president's. we will never accept her. go with us at that former president bedrock, a theos fall, began after he tried to dissolve congress in the face of an impeachment would be under the medical intensive shown on lawmakers. removed him from offers any re, stella constitution, and the cause accused him of rebellion. his vice president, d w, arty, was sworn in soon after, castillo is being held in these bullies quarters. his supporters have gathered outside to demand his release barrels. political stability looks set to continue. the country has seen 6 presidents in 6 years. deniable who are they is intent on avoiding the fate of our predecessors, but she has done fight. i had of her sports news now and on the pitching cat r 5 time when as brazil have crashed out of the world camp after losing croatia in

the quarter finals, croatia held their nerve to win on penalties. after a tense period of extra time, meaning brazil's white for a 1st world cup since 2002 goes on. the crowd inside the education city stadium had watched more than a 100 minutes of gold football when name or solo effort. finally broke the deadline for brazil. a slick passing move, culminating in his 2nd goal of the tournament. one that looked like a certain winner. but in the 170 minute creation, substitute, bruno petrovich converted his team's 1st shot on target. a deflection from martinos ensuring that croatia would be heading into a 2nd successive penalty shootout. and for a 2nd successive time it was they who prevailed while croatia hammered home clinical spot kicks. brazil twice failed to convert. it was martinos miss that

finally settled, things sending croatia into the final for once again. the runners up in russia have high hopes for guitar, while ne, mind co are once again heading home empty handed. d w babble i visa watch the game from a bar in zagreb, but with some rather boisterous croatia fan. oh . c i oh, okay, so that was a diagram

. so all the public viewing took place inside inside the many bars of the city and people who are a part. i don't need to tell you what the mood is like. you just got a little taste they. i absolutely over the mood, it was not here. i mean brazil was there was still one side. they were really afraid of that. what you have, what is great, a if we look at the players, we know we have to be afraid of them. they really thought it out and that they showed this tremendous and build it. that seems to be the strength of the creation of the team. and so people are absolutely all of a joy. this is going to be one hell of a party tonight about visa that well in fridays,

other quarter final argentina knocked out the netherlands on penalties after the dutch produced a major come back during the game, argentina lead to nail, but the netherlands came back to equalize in the living community of stop each time that took again to a shootout, where argentinian keeper martinez said to penalties forward. now taro martinez then stepped out to send argentina through to the $75.00 c. w news from berlin. we'll have more on the hosted situation. interesting throughout the afternoon, thanks for with a, [000:00:00;00]

with who it was 2016 as like a bunch of the quit and casa, wanted to see if germany was the last few years, have been quite arise early in touch with averted on the home. but when it comes to germany is, and of course i always look in the eyes birch is, but perhaps the biggest on the new hobby of mine,

i'm no longer approved. i love to be in the news for person that comes when you're feeling altogether. you'll realize that coach is just another way of living. are you ready to meet the driver and then join me, right? just do it on b, w. ah, for this christmas cake. people would gladly go to jail. penn attorney is a long standing tradition in italy, and some of the nation's best come from a bakery at a maximum security prison in padua. a confection that's enjoyed by all of italy. the cake who jail your ro, max next on d. w. o . they breathe. ah,

they have body and soul houses that daniel leaders can't construct far more than just buildings. he is the son of jewish holocaust survivors. how lucky that i was able to bill to just present berlin. his architecture is a celebration of democracy and i, an architect of emotions. daniel starts december 25th on d, w. ah ah ah ah, ah,

these young siblings from france have become enormously popular with their songs in latin america. well find out more about them later in the show. hi everyone. welcome to another edition of your max with me, your house. megan lee. there is a look at what else we've got coming out. how a delicious, a tie, and specialty is created behind bars. and a look into english pump culture through the eyes of one photographer. a special treat at christmas time is this dewey italian cake painted tona. it has a long tradition dating back to the 15th century, and it comes in a variety of flavors. but what you might not know is that some of the best punish tona is made in an unlikely place. a prison bakery in northern italy, as part of a program, meant to rehabilitate prisoners. this bakery is also turning out

a hot christmas commodity. ah, behind these bars, in the city of patois, in northern italy, prisoners craft exquisite baked treats. the bakers are hardened criminals with long prison sentences. we aren't allowed to share their names or crimes. so priyanka said, i've been in this prison for 14 years, so. gotcha. what's up on going out to that? i'm paying for what i did back in 2008 in 2010 on that. oh, i used to have some real issues going on. what i mean, those buddy? i definitely made a big mistake. but i've changed tara and i just keep learning storing, but i know for now they're mostly baking panic. tony, a traditional italian christmas cake. the palatinate from pastor chileya giotto in the prison are some of the best in italy. even pope francis has ordered some. sy, heat, which is not his real name is proud of his success. he has worked here for 2 and

a half years chicago. we make great products and i'm honored to be able to do this work without it. what it does me good to put myself into my work here. i'm young and thoughtful, neil murderers, my fiancee and others who have committed serious crimes are imprisoned here. only those with good conduct, but still facing long sentences can work as makers, otherwise it's not worth it. to train them, the head, pastry chef counts the knives at the end of each day, just to be on the safe side of it. here, they also learn to follow defined rules and schedules, and to respect their superiors already. you need to be humble patient and ready to learn, or you won't make it far in here by barbara. and pana, tony does require patience. it takes 72 hours to make the ye stow traditionally candied orange peels and raisins are added,

but also chocolate ginger picks and lavender. ah, yeah, my favorite type is with amorianna, a new guy. oh, so ghost, everyone has their favorite pantone, depending on their taste. so we make 1400 of them a day and their shift begins at 4 in the morning. it takes 3 days before the panel . tony is done and, and it's typical paper wrapping. once they're out of the oven. saeed and his fellow bakers hang the cakes upside down. but joe, we turn them over fresh out of the oven, that helps them keep their round shape while cooling watermark, or is the inmates and their finished pantone all over the world. 100000 a year starting at 30 year was a piece capacity chevy at your toe, has even been hosting a cafe for a year now in the center of pato up, the company is making a profit. almost everything here is from the prisons. pastry shop. many customers

have no idea these fine traits were baked by criminals. really nice. why know, are they really, are they good faith for this? and so, okay. i know the cakes were made in prison. that makes them all the better and hopefully help the people are given. and besides, they're excellent quality. the inmate makers do actually have regular employment contracts and they receive a proper salary. ah, my wages don't just help me. i also help my family. they need the money done with many of the prisoners send to panic. tony home for christmas, one day school. when i get out, i can work as a pastry baker in a cost each area. and i'm studying at a hotel management school. so i can enter that profession later on it and it's not just

a dream for saeed. very few of the former prison bakers end up returning to a life of crime. one has even opened his own pastry shop. you tube has turned many young people into singing sensations over night, and that can be said for the french siblings isaak and nora. but what makes them a bit different is that instead of singing in their native tongue, they choose to sing their songs in a different language, which they had to 1st learn. or we met up with them in france to hear more about their story. i am only 14 and 11. the zak and norah restaurants are already enjoying musical success in south america . the french siblings of sing latin american classics in a language they 1st had to learn. and that wasn't as fine. they are what a k channels that we thing in spanish because we like the language. it's very

beautiful where you can let out all your feelings in spanish is the same, was an escalade, and i language. and i really like the era relatedly, ah, kin cicada sylvie doing it in may? 2022. the zak and norah went on their 1st big tour, which took them not only to spain, but to peru, columbia, chile, and mexico. i. it was their 1st time in latin america, and almost every concert sold out and let in america with fluid anything. latin america was fantastic because we could meet our family. that was cool down way and we could play it was funny till they'll get at them the n e n. and the audiences were incredible, leafy, and really nice and warm hearted in which i could. i found in the family lives and

compare a city in western france and 29 nicholas restaurant himself, a musician uploaded this video of his 2 children with their cover of vain they on yos. i hit from 935, went viral. a few go cinder, i'm still surprised and you don't look is i don't really understand what's happened yet. look it up a phone or get for me. it all started as a kind of game or invisible playing with my family at home for my dad. we're gonna and like a sign from you. yeah. aside from music, the family of 4 has no real connection to latin america. it was his wife cutting a loyce fondness for latin american songs that inspired isaak and nora men come

dyes. could she, i am with you. yeah, i love hearing this music and yeah, i would change you know, emotional and did the temper quinn do whenever i need a little cheering up and eagerly. yeah. a latin american music does it for me? if i b o the do of these, i can, nora has since published an album of cover songs in spanish and portuguese. they're working on a 2nd album of their own song ah, with the muslims, he gets hecky. i like latin music more than, for example, french because i don't really like to understand the lyrics. sure. and then they'll less live peer to sentimental melissa. it can be a bit embarrassing and those this book available. so, so if you know, ah, they regularly post new songs on their youtube channel said that the light of their

more than 600000 followers below they cover others genres and breathed new life into almost 4 latino classics. and they're growing into multi instrumentalist. ah, i started playing trumpet 78 years ago drew. and then nora started singing la m as a lou, this was i called them a jetta. that sailor said him yet, and i envied my brother. and he, as they neared, because when i saw them both play and music without me, thus i wanted to play to judge them and get a better picture. glad who plays. and because i was very young, 3 or 4 years old. my father said, glad to know and you can sing. so by play. so i started to sing in the 2nd that in 2023. they're going on another big tour. these o'connor arrest long can hardly wait to get back on stage. even in architecture,

sustainability is a big issue. these days, converting old buildings is one way to go about it. and to berlin. architects have made it part of their mission to breathe new life into dilapidated buildings and ruins such as with an old east german silo, which the firm recently converted into its new offices. but the real challenge might be the $199.00 steps, which the team has to climb each day. just to get to work. this 43 meter tall, former concrete silo, is home to a berlin based architecture firm. if brutal is styled, may not appeal to everyone, but it's a real passion project for the architects from b plus. and i'm by name zoloft. robert. my name is arno bronner luba mr. mr. we should always use existing buildings because it's the way of the future window. hester's lead even ugly. things can be beautiful at their put to good use. in 2012,

the architects discovered the abandon silo by chance in the berlin district, at least in bag. it used to belong to the east german state, one company v e be elected colette, while most people might have wanted to tear down the ruins for arnold handle hoopa, they called to mind one of italy's most beautiful pieces of architecture. the viewing tower told a grocer in san jim in yano tuscany, that's where the project's name came from. santa miano listen bag. this in the hipaa wide room were standing in front of 2 towers that are so narrow and tall that they can bring to mind and sanjay miano in tuscany. cuz connor and in an industrial environment like this evil, a bit of tuscan flare, affects your mental associations of course, and hit the 2 and impacting these associations is an important part of working with existing structures, gung, because they often have negative connotations that it's inconsistent. ah, many where it 1st skeptical about the project and the silos location,

far away from the city center. but the architects managed to win over investors and bring new life to the abandoned industrial site. conversion work took about 10 years and came at a hefty price tag, $800000.00 heroes. the original tower has remained mostly intact. the families ground floor now host to workshop where the team creates models and prototypes. gray, angular concrete structures are typical of the architecture firms style with captive links for students who there are different approaches to aesthetics of so not one is based on a particular superficial appearance. overflow. ms. nash, i know, but that's not so much our focus as a spoof to and that goes for our clients and the projects we work on. the dba wide, someone's looking for an architect who's really good with colors or making really shiny facades. they'd be better off with someone else chinese and if less poems

punch their clients better be in good physical shape too. there is no elevator here . the team has to go up and down $199.00 steps every day. just in 5th. normally, as of you might head to the gym after work to get some physical exercise on cardio machines that simulate stairs. because i had did some one often, but we've noticed that now there's no neat, pointless because these stairs give you the work that you need for the day and the route your life often for the 1st was her leaving a tuesday. the gray, the he moth has really been transformed on the inside. it boast high ceilings, a gallery and stunning visual perspectives. and that took a lot of creative ideas. and came to america in the rear area. there were only these 3 windows and just these 3 small openings in little bit ice. that's all, that's why the back area of the room is darker on these. and so we decided we'd

install these cabinets with mirrors to make the room look bigger, and also provide the storage space we need for the prototypes. the architecture firms mission is to save buildings from the wrecking vol. another mission accomplished is there, and he mentioned in potsdam the former east german textile factory has been arnold bundle, who was home for the past 6 years in berlin. the architects have also built new rootless structures, while breathing new life into old buildings like this church. this is michelle ost viewed with no, there's a big opportunity to create something new on this month. but here's an enormous shift taking place that makes every day a happy one. because the transformation everyone keeps talking about abstractly of under. you can see here, right here on site, putting old concrete buildings to give you. the sun dim and yano lift and back project shows how you can turn

a dilapidated silo tower into something thrilling and bring industrial wastelands back to life. how the culture is a huge part of british life. it's not just a place to have a drink. pugs have been a center for social activities for hundreds of years. but since the corona virus pandemic, the number of pubs in the u. k. have dwindled in the culture, might be under threat. but before that happens, a german photographer decided to take a deeper look into this british treasure. the pub, the mirror of english society, a place with many facets. not just a place to drink a pint, but also eat lunch, play darts, meet friends, a place of community and sharing for his book, great pups of england, photographer

a horse day. felix went in search of the most intriguing pubs in england. sorry i was quite nervous when when i thought that book, that responsibility little odd. i was on my shoulders. the pop is the heart and the soul, the english. so it's a very part of their society that identity. so for me, it was like almost like looking into their souls. poor, stay free drinks photographed, 33 pups for his book. he went during off hours to avoid the crowds for his pictures . with over 350 years of history yield cheshire cheese is one of london's oldest pups writers. charles dickens and mark twain are said to a pass through here. my pub is short for public house, a public place where all are welcome. each club has its own stories. a fact that co author steward husband, especially values. they have talking pirate here, who could apparently perfectly imitate the pop of

a champagne cork and little go gluck noise as the champagne was poured into a glass. and that used to be his party piece, and apparently he did it so much, terry hall. mr. stay will, will one, the day will, will, one entered, it did so many pops and drug drugs that he fainted, dead off, his pert with the exertion. so i love pups who stories like that when the parent actually is just behind us of football right now. in east london, the focus is on collin airy, delights with gastro. pubs, like the marksman, have long been deal competition for restaurants. in 2017, the michelin guide, named it pub of the year. it's a model that's working. this country has had a huge amount of pups because they were the main focus of entertainment. you know, within communities they were, they were genuinely a good community hub and i think class, last year you can buy alcohol, the soup markets, you can see

a home and watch television or watch sports at home. and people are drinking less. it's very difficult for a public purely wet lead, purely drinks to make money now. but the pub is in danger of extinction. during the corona pandemic alone, hundreds of pubs closed across the country. the palm tree is a time capsule where nothing much has changed since the 1970s. only caches accepted here. and the next bank machine is a 10 minute walk. 83 year old landlord, alf barrett, bucks trends. and yet his pub does keep attracting new guests. rito, i feel like it feels a bit like stuff back in time. i feel young at pubs that have corpus like this. anyone i'm quite hopeful for pops because they're great people out there. great creators of landlords. and ladies, if you really love it, then it comes from your,

your heart and you have a vision. you create something that people like you can be very successful. hopefully because pops are an integral part of british society, a melting pot and a place of joy for many well, another thing that brings joy is getting presents at christmas time. now when i was a kid, there was nothing more exciting. and waking up on christmas day to see what santa had brought us. well here in europe, there are different characters who deliver gifts during the holidays. it all depends on where you live. believe it or not, it's not always santa and his team of helpers who bring the presence. oh, the joys up christmas time. euro max reporter holly rollinson is in the christmas spirit. she can't wait to get her presence. when i 1st moved from the united states to germany,

i was surprised to hear that it's not just santa claus who brings the gifts at christmas. it's also something called the christian and in the rest of europe, sometimes there's a witch, or troll, or other little creature. got it. i bring the children christmas gifts on the 24th of december of christmas eve, me to i put them under the christmas tree. so to why? well, it's a bit complicated in the north and east of germany. santa claus brings the presence in south and west germany. it's usually the krist kin they both bring presents to the children on december 24th. and they both agree that the presence belong under the christmas tree. okay, so why are there 2 of you then? we need to go back to the birth of christ and the 3 wise men who started the whole

business of gift giving. later it was saint nicholas who brought gifts on december 6th with his red cloak, the historical bishop saint nicholas is said to have inspired santa claus is red outfit. but then came martin luther, who brought about the division of the church into catholics and protestants. he also invented the christians, who then came on december 24th for protestants. st. like nicholas were no longer in demand, but for catholics they were still important. but since saint nicholas was increasingly turning into a commercial santa claus and even nonbelievers started believing in him, the catholics adopted the crist kent, which looks like an angel complete with wings and to top it off a halo. but now it was high time for the protestants to distance themselves from the catholics again. so they again believed in santa claus. got it. most families can settle on santa claus. but the tradition of celebrating christmas with

your family only came about at the start of the 19th century. to day santa claus is known almost everywhere. he's called pear, noel in france. bobo, natalie in italy. papa noel in spain sent to class in the netherlands. and so on in finland, he's known as your local key. rumor has it that santa lives here to visit him. you have to head for lap length and the arctic circle. oh, as you can see, i bring all the children in the world, christmas gift, except to have to be careful in italy because there is a wit aah! in italy, a which called the fauna is known to bring joy to children. because here it's the witch that comes bearing gifts, but on january 6th, not on december 24th. ah,

according to the legend to which the fauna actually wanted to go with the 3 wise men to visit the baby jesus. but when he wasn't able to go it, she instead decided to bring all the little children gifts and january thick in the spanish region of catalonia. a log called to another brings the presence complete with a hat covered by a blanket jew not on his bed by the families during the advent season. on christmas eve, he is then beaten with a stick to release the presence with other creatures. rome europe's far north. in iceland, 13 trains leave their home in the mountains to visit people. each of these so called you las vein us has a different character. every day from december 12th onward, one of them joined the others until they are complete by christmas eve,

when they bring presence one by one, they leave again until they have all returned to the mountains by january 6. ah, so as you can see, the gift giving situation. europe is complicated, but it's also really funny and interesting. but you know what as long as someone's bringing the gift. i'm happy so merry christmas and have a great holidays. ah ah. and in keeping with the christmas spirit, these colorful moravian stars can be found. hey, in many homes here in germany during the holiday season. and if you would like one for your home, then just go to our website and take part in this week's viewers drop. and we're that it is time to say goodbye as always thanks for tuning in and we'll see you again,
