fired the we are all set and we'll walk. seeing closely we all seem to bring you the story behind the news. we're rolling about unbiased information for fremont. done the mean has all, there's a bird in taiwan called the oriental turtle. dove. can you get scooped up in a cage? i will keep scratching at the sides and eventually i will die when that owns that. even if i stayed in one place, i might end up like one of those turtle don't. you don't, we don't bug georgia. we have to put together what we have and share either or the experience is the resources, the knowledge is the net, the you have any darn it. i never know about emigrating going to another country.

you should live way you feel is how is it the, the good to metal stands for freedom of opinion of art and cultural exchange. it's germany's most important prize in foreign cultural policy and is awarded by the good to institute annually. the winners we're presenting today in body. these freedoms in their home countries like theater makers, you wake hang and tie one and and hungary is capital budapest, the off the and i'll a curator collective. but 1st to georgia. we're gone, gosh, read. so has turned the capital city of tbilisi into a showcase for film and cinema. you get the best view of typically see from the old town, touched on the hillside. god, yes, please says news it like the back of his hand. he was born here and that we studied

and wept in germany so much of his professional career, georgia and his joining back time. and again, to start from his job, it was always clear to me, i'm georgia. i have to be involved here. i know i never thought about emigrating was going to another country movies, guys, and though i had many opportunities back in a day of center, but the way i see you should live where you found most at home and what was it to how does it feel god felt at home in georgia in cinema for more than 20 years. he directed the tbilisi film festival and event broke global cinema back to georgia. he co founded the festival in 2000 a challenging time with post says that georgia still reading from civil war and the k on take 1st use of independence. you have to undergo was a key that we had a big crisis in the 1990 is very few films were being made and the institutions

wasn't really working properly. clark, this been called the cdo was basically bankrupt and the states didn't support as either the vote. we stopped at the festival with practically no money, $10.00 films. but that was okay, because what we set out to do was to reawaken the movie called j a. d. this off in the, in the lunch of to me to eviction. and re away can it did just, i can soviet days when push ya know. street bristled with cinemas like the iconic apollo theatre. as a child, he would go to the movies every day. so over 20 years now, god, that has been campaigning to preserve the greats of george's movie history. he credits his family for cultivating his passion for him, the white and both sides of the tent. my grandfather was a producer at a big studio through z a film. it was called it as

a boy. i was allowed to go to the shoots, which was incredibly exciting to. that's probably where i discovered my love for the film by my brother became inactive. to me, as for me, i wanted to study, so making votes, and there wasn't a film school in georgia at the time of this kind of 71 in moscow. i didn't want to go to moscow, so i gave up on it at most going on. then obviously the south could to please the 2023. the political climate is changing. together with his friend and co campaign, a historian less of a craft. so got to discuss is the current situation. cultural professionals deemed troublesome by the authorities around depression. funds being cut in stone for placed, including gone to, to a sacked as director of the national film center. former colleagues protested the dismissal in june this year, occupying the center in a surprise move. oh boy as well. so he's calm and very communicative as people go.

dog is also true to his principles. said it's very hard to manipulate him, have squealing so many people, either he can be stubborn. and for that reason, right, he's something of a star. and in the sides of those who think that they should be making all the decisions from big lovin is all and alice said about in child, the protests quickly became a political issue. that very evening bronco was invited to appear on t v. p. valley. the conversation revolved around the latest purchase of literature, alt and film by minister chatham county. unfortunately, gaga became a stick ahead in the opposition to have policies he went on to receive the good to metal, considered german 4 and cultural policies most prestigious toward. but could the move be damaging if taken as in front? the 9 is kelvin game. know quite the opposite. i think i'm certain

the middle will help. it's clear from other examples that when someone has a robust international standing and good connections, that that person is approached with caution. he's the past so and, and he's not a nobody. he's not someone you can just treat any way you like a month. do you mind much the good to metal underlines that annual dish ties. it's movie nights at the good to institute. the documentary about to be screen is considered to be for silva screens in georgia. today's special guest is direct to settlement jace. timing the garden shows ancient trees from the black sea coast are rooted and moved to a private garden. it's a hobby for a georgian billionaire, ali golf and full of prime minister and an expensive one. at that i should say that the gods fashion to spanish it has been extremely supportive to turn in the film and culture in general. it's one of the places where we come to

have workshops meetings to have discussions to screenings. so it is an amazing place. and we have always post this back behind us and plus on top of that. so give this metal to god. god is a huge encouragement tool to the georgia film industry. and i think to the whole country in general for us to understand that we are not alone here. somebody is there watching over us and supporting us the politically undesirable film was sponsored by the film center. a like a reason for god as dismissal. and to topic for the ensuing discussion with good to institute president color lens. she's touring institute in the congress's got feels at home is the good to institute. he's well acquainted with german culture. he does have to be attended. i started informa east germany to me, the g d thought by the at least 2 halls of us. we were pretty free that because we wanted home done, but it was, we could say practically anything we wanted. it was august coordinate me to ongoing

. we made friends with hung gary ends of jackson slovak. i see. and there was lots of students that are the because we had to come in to pressure the booth. russia, the evil russians who at process and don't want us to develop as democratic countries. i single coffee cylinder we joined ga, ga, at every union with friends from his studies. it, you know, on the menu out, traditional to connie dumplings. but today is less about reminiscing than current events. god as friend my and ticket a was a diplomat and foreign minister. she knows what's at stake. chauffeur c, i've been uh, deals and then the if the dispute with those in power ends badly, it was sent. i really hope that people will support him any way that people else gait and save what he started under like defense in beth, and the in touch to say what has been so very important for cultural life in

georgia. even google from her on personal vision as well for the school, told her that evening. god, god has no doubt. george's young film scene has serious potential well connected and hungry for new project. she believes young georgians are ready to take to the streets, to defend that culture. and the freedom, the big came from dr. you. that's all it we have fighting to keep in control institutions. democratic from not threatened by a states that use this censorship and repression as weapons and who wouldn't be to chrissy or in late november gaga. sweet. so we'll open the 24th edition of the film festival. as for what comes next, any time can tell the next stop on our journey to the 2023 good to

metal winters is hungary. the curatorial collective of the off the amount of budapest bring create is together independent of state funding. the hungary and capital of buddha passed in early summer 2023 to a place where on the floor it's harry and policy is restricting the free offs themes the all spin on a budapest is pushing back. we symposium like the season of darkness. female control activists encountering the contemporary political play. only these interactions and collaborations can save us these days coming together and avoiding ukraine are the 2 major effect doors which influenced our not only the symposium but our daily life as well. presentations and panels run for 3 days that this independence control venue. neal guest,

right. the off being honest, curatorial team is made up of 6 women back in 2013. 1 of them came up with the idea of an alternative be in all day to count, put dominant state sponsored on high net cash remote. you owe me officers to them to accept state funding can take pounds. not so easy to use and you don't artist creators, not many people have the opportunity to break what the states. it's quite impossible on an individual level, but the project can do it. and i think that's one of the, one of the goals like that. this is one of the reasons, bye bye. well, this people who started to approach reactance really positively a. i think it was, it was it's, it's the good to start actually doing something together. the approach made waves in 2022. they were invited to documented in castles, together with students and the design collective right. such as a bonus,

the off team conceived and built a bridge to recycled materials the day by guys to to the comment that it was last was that was amazing. no, i didn't do a 3. i'm not all because you didn't have the days of the document that involving the kids. the students sounds, families, neighbors. i mean that process the facing vc work for people who in later age was something for me that must be the for my experience to be ready to whether he's watch and kind of the budapest teams guiding principle, building something together. for example, an international exhibition on violence against women runs during the symposium and as a meeting of a new collective of small scale been always from prague, keith russell, rica. and for the past, of course, it's called these eastern european biennial alliance. none of us have this

maintaining infrastructure, but usually by a newest or larger scale institution has to be has to put together what we have and share either or the experience is the resources. the knowledge is the network. the ukraine more has playing them closer together and then now planning to collaborate on upcoming osby and nowadays in eastern europe, such a claim co is already working on the next key being on a set to take place. and he's hoping to reinvigorate the local oxy. it's very important to reconnect them to the ex, so called sourcing of keys and to allow them to book on the topic that they've previously worked and around the topics reach uh, importance and all for people for us do their mansions around, shown in the off being on a tons, this funk lined on marginalized groups,

the roman mama is a long term project and exploring content to activism, width and vice city and rome. the goal is not to establish another brick and mortar building for rome are throwing up people like this for are still over to europe and beyond. so the question is whether is how to change the policies of museums and how to come to how to acknowledge the, the contribution to fool many people to our culture. such as best performance by doing the general was a multi disciplinary artist from the roman diaspora which looks at an attitude the romance against the backdrop of rising nationalism. the, even though they had an integral part of the society that are less fortunate, this for them to showcase the amazing works. well, i'm not totally sure, but also share, you know, relating to being in the process. the, the last stop on our journey to the 2023 good to metal winters is tie 11 of the

most democratic countries in asia, theater, producer, you a king, connect to the island for public culturally to the rest of the world. taiwan is capital type, hey, is home to many theaters. one of them is the national center for traditional arts, drama, church and festival curator you. a king is a welcome guest here. he's attending a dress rehearsal for a taiwanese opera. his career hasn't always run in a straight line. and in a way that's the secret to his success. all to announce the challenges i read a lot when i was young because i was so hungry for knowledge, which was a huge chance it onto a since i was on a boat to a lot to and i drank a lot to relax and get to new people, it was a she all georgia united down and so these are gonna be golfing. so looking back to the daughter, i was like an animal preparing for winter and getting 5 head of the cold. sorry,

way to to be the accumulated of vast amount of experience and knowledge that i still draw upon. another one belongs to defend the accidents. how will you find another to the opera is set to be staged at the time the arts festival. as curator on the way faces the task of bridging the 400 year history and culture of this southern city with the present day. he was the 1st choice. so it's on the good sofa . i think he's a very influential key right to and teach him to do it. he knows the time when he's on it's very well that the traditional data to palm hello non itself is a crucible for civilizations and for additional options or whatnot. then for either the and see to the in the office he way knows. and his connection to the world. his walk will be a model and fusion. and so what is really good at that? sent a couple things going out so that she's the 1st on science on the way is always on

the move around the island to get some of his best ideas. on the train, he studied philosophy and dramaturgy and taiwan. and europe now he passes on his knowledge at 2 universities in taipei and his work with young people inspires new projects. but you also which is when he came class so you can get some truly good ideas and inspiration from the dialogue with students. and so that's why i value teaching so much show you also in conjunction with, even if it takes preparation is a stimulating because you can share something with the students on your new, which is switching sound good. i'm a friend, it's like an arts festival, so it inspires artist to try things and let them share it with the public. don't see the whole down. how much confidence on the students react well to is often unconventional ideas. he gives them total freedom and encourages their unceasing curiosity, independent of any textbook. at 54,

he's preserved many childlike qualities. these and others make a real impression on the students. for ties kind of thing for us as have i. what fascinates me most is how well he's prepared and every genre of the arts, because he's worked in so many different fields on title and still he seems to tackle every project with the same approach in logic. i'm you know, it's actually so since the 1990 he's, he's made his base in the capital type hey. in 2012 he became artistic director of the type a arts festival. launching his career as a curator here together with a few like minded artists. he founded the want to dance festival, to give contemporary dance of public arena. the way sees dance as one of the greatest art forms hold, susanna. now here we establish a connection between the curator and the audience. so that the space is relatively small and intimate, was noticing she in the past few years and i've become more and more interested in

dance. who's who the uh yeah, we uh, useful job denser. and i'm a very special type of artist which their material is their board and they work with language and without you see the good adult withholding youth. oh, that's right then. so i can have cross border dialogues with other are, if you don't, to always use the n c and taiwan largest independent dance festival, positively courts controversy. he weighs program rebels and freedom and absurdity the oversize diapers, and smacked bottoms in this piece by japanese, choreographer. race, so she moved jima set to soviet marches. most definitely linger in the mind. the thing was us who to order by, in our culture, in the way we are educated, the elderly and people with experience a highly respected by the younger generation aspect to you. i would also say he's

a bit of a catalyst, a driving force drive. the way is in the city of calcium, in southern taiwan. since 2018, he served as a kind of freelance drama church at the national kashi and center for the arts. also known as we were getting it houses for large stages. he meets up with his teams almost every week to develop ideas, many of which might seem rather off the wall. basically, he is a crazy man. he read its so much, any kind of book. and he watched the performance and he watch tv and the tv seniors and the fumes. and he knows so much and he has the ability to, to make fun, does the week if you absolutely free to at least a 210 start of, of the, of the most view of the co operation. we, we,

the people and organizations entire. every december, the venue is transformed into a circus tent, with fire shows, acrobatics, and magic e wait king, make sure the circus platform is never less than spectacular. many cultural institutions would love to have him on an exclusive contract, but he values his creative freedom. he needs that even when he has all the issues going on to the well, there's a burden. taiwan called the oriental turtle dov. how are you enjoying your button to if it's cooped up in a cage to coordinate? we'll keep scratching at the sites and eventually with that will die with that just so you don't want to go back and show them. and if i stayed in one place, so i probably end up like one of those turtle doves. you find this is on the table . i think i've proven that i can make a great contribution to theater in performance and tie one in my own way and who does it 3 time in the ability to enjoy the comments you back in type, hey, way king is visiting his publishers. he's also had great success writing new

introductions to novels by world famous writers, as well as books of his own. this year, he's been awarded the good to metal for staging german theater plays on taiwan. he stages and for his skill in breaking down cultural barriers. type you all tie one type into this, the deal will how the to to to, to the sound in terms of tie one's relationship with global culture as you, i feel like a transformer robot that's been upgraded into the c. good. couldn't tie the t t in it, not only on the owner put things, but also a new responsibility of the body weight goes. now you will, you have to think about how i as a transformer, can use this influence to make more people aware of taiwanda. you certainly don't hold on the how long key be controlled and kind of bringing tie one's arts to the world, especially in times of crisis with a powerful china next door is

a cost. the tie, paid, good to institute has taken up as well. for 10 years it's been developing projects with the way then via owns will meet to discuss a certain project. and by the time we take leave of each of that, we've gone over 5 more vide, yeah, just because he knows his way around so well and all his various roles. and he's a much so open minded about doing the best he possibly can. so the international cultural exchange move pollution locked in this house in the town or for lead you way was raised by his grandfather. his uncle still lives here and is very proud of him. he knows that he weighs origins, have shaped him party. and so you go around, gene attends and i've noticed once again already and there's a very peaceful time between so on the way people deal with one another is simpler and the piece of slower a. while, while, as i'd say on those lines in this environment,

the relationships are closer now what you to to, i believe that's been important to me and my work as a few razor to the stay. and i provide to the why will to and go to the goes what i got while lean is a typical coastal town in eastern ty, one the way finished school here and the 19 eighties and then moved to taipei. but he's always drawn back to the pacific shores dining kind of how does the whole need you would be when you look at the ceiling, you become to see you certainly m t r a to the phone. so this is where i tried to connect with another world. the language to the, to the see is a great influence on me. so instead of what you do, every time i come to the beach, i feel like i'm being restored ways by ways on a show through the nourishes inspires me, people, you'll, people told me i might not know what's at the bottom of the sea, say what you're the head i do newly, i need this little that's all hiding me. is this something that that is, that will head, she all save him when he was younger,

he would often come to the beach with his short wave radio and listen to us charts on the way king, a free spirit from taiwan clim, braces the whole world. the and that was arts unveiled with the 2023 winters of the good to metal join us again . next time the
