a wall for around 28 years, this iconic structure shaped the faith of the city. tomorrow's the 35th anniversary of the fall of the berlin wall. we explored the german capital and other places in the country and covering numerous traces of history. this here marks 35 years to the fall of the burden. was it once divided, burden in germany for decades, bringing misery to many people. so what's left of it today, and the berlin wall fell in 1989. i wasn't born yet. but later i saw the videos of the many emotional people what seemed impossible has come to a peaceful revolution. so let's start exploring the wall in berlin and germany.

our 1st location is sick when charlie on physics trust, which was one of the most famous border crossings ever. it's hard to imagine today the world war 3 almost broke out here. at the end of world war 2, the allies had divided not only germany, but also berlin into fort occupations on the western zones were administered by the us, british, and french, and the eastern zone by the soviets, known as the g, d. r. at 1st the vocal still cost of water was that ended when the gigi are built, the wall on august 13 1961. the wall was built and all the rest. berlin will see the dogs. here at chick when charley american and soviet tanks, jo, well armed with live ammunition and stood facing each other for more than 16 hours . berlin and the world held their breath. fortunately, the tax went through the situation. calm down and the wall became a sad part of everyday life. there's not much left of the wall, a checkpoint, charlie today. it's merely a popular photo spot. but you can find out what the,

what actually look like in other places. are 2nd stop is a memorial and burn hour shows. it consists of a large opener, exhibition kind of documentation center. these will show where the well one stood mainly through the middle of bernard street. when the wall was built over night, on august, the 13th 1961 dispute, people jumped out of the windows under an hour shots. the houses were in the east, but the street was in the west. over the years, the simple wall became a sophisticated border fortification system. the 140 people died, either by being shot or from accidents that occurred by trying to escape at the

burden. but the memorial, the knowledge dresser is very moving. since it's a stars, reminder of the one strategic history of the city, the, our 3rd spot is completely different. it's colorful, careful, and original. the east side gallery is 1.32 meters song and the spaces that are just fun all over the world. after the fall of the was, it isn't inside one of the largest, so when they are galleries in the world, it's just want to walk along here and look at over a 100 paintings. we are now leaving berlin and driving to our 4th location, a place called point alpha. this us opposite region post was on the border of former west germany, exactly between the present the states of syringe here. and his point

also was considered a major hot spot in the cold war and that's because the us troops were certain that the sol reduce the square to invade the west. there wouldn't bid here, the terrain is relatively stopped. so during the surprise attack, soviet troops could have penetrated very quickly and deeply into west germany. that's why the american citizen observation forced right here, as close as possible to the ddr border fortifications. the 1st and last stop on our journey lies on the border between 3 and you and the area. the small village of more lovely. the small stream has always been the natural border between tutoring. yeah. and the very, yeah. and there was never a problem on 21945, when the allies divided germany between themselves. suddenly westmore lavoy. it was in the americans on what eastwood lavoy. it wasn't the soviet so the administrative border had suddenly become

a national border. separating friends and families. people from the western part of the village could no longer go to the same school or far because favor now in the east. it was also forbidden for people on opposite sides to waive or even read each other. this eventually became impossible anyway. as the border fortifications were extended, pushing people farther apart, american soldiers, nickname the place. little burnett of the people. it's more towards the left part of the wall standing so that future generations could understand what it meant to live in a divided village in a divided country. this going to it's our search for cases of history 35 years after the fall of the wall in berlin, germany the we continue with our series about studying in europe, which offer students a glimpse of what life could be like if they went abroad. we covered cambridge madrid, and the lawn, and today we're taking a closer look at what student life could be like as

a centuries old university in scotland. what's it like to study in his, dark edinburgh, scotland, with wealth costs universities a huge and national population, and a gothic old town that said to inspire harry pasta. you probably want to know how you can study we're meeting some international students. he'll tell you about their lives here. indigo is from the us and this just graduated with a degree in international relations. first of these question, why edinburgh to edinburgh was always really my top choice. i came and visited here before i even knew that there was a big university here. and i just, i absolutely follow up with the city and i think what surprised me was how warm the people are in the city. you know, everyone says that the weather is so bad, which i swear it's not. we get a lot more sun than people give us credit for it. but i, yes,

everyone is so nice and that there's a lot of emphasis on community and safety. so my friends in the states, we're definitely a lot more stressed that the university crews, they weren't receiving the same kind of support their class schedules were a lot heavier than mine. at denver, as homes are 4 different univers, international students make up 44 percent. the student body at the university of edinburgh that serve as $24000.00 students. and besides london, edinburgh has the most popular student destination in the the, the, well, you may think of it as a rainy city, a buyer in the rain full in edinburgh is less than the scottish average. and it rains less annually than in room in unit. and in new york, so i guess i'm just, i'm lucky. edinburgh is less expensive than london or paris in terms of living costs. more expensive and still criminal. it's been nice and

international relations student from india is showing us how he budgets for centrals. so did you know that the university of and in for recommends between $920.19 pounds per month as a bunch? it sounds about right. i there's a big gap and that's a good because in the way these a lot in the city and cost of living is really effective that as well. so we have oranges, we have some middle, we have some chicken eggs, some bread and displeasure item um which is about legit and to try and keep it but under the $500.00 pounds every month which essentially includes most meals going out and except for it and unless you're using taxi's or something, transport costs are pretty much negligible in the city like edinburgh, where you can walk around and use the bus for free. that's what our bus boss looks like. it's a young scott carton,

so it gives us free access to the bus only we need to stop it in the bus loading for lively night life and culture institutions. so how the students flow of things. i mean, it was done in english and for most of the students from the us to the inside ski read 170 different societies. we have a wine teaching society of irritating society and socrates in society a with a. so um, really any interest you could simply problem we represent, we have a little community for it. we have 2 quizzes the week to the university a well. but throughout the city you can find at least 5 pub quizzes a night, anywhere your and um yeah, i think most of it really closer for as i bonded with also the past year. i left size of the each what i have his old care to each one has his own regularly use of each of them has its own flavor, even though it's

a living its own taste to it. and i love the, so how this studying and at in birth sound to you or you spell bound, but it's caustic bt well a little bit off by the rain. the violent conflict in the middle east has been dominating international news for months. the divide between cultures seems insurmountable, and signs of hope are needed. now, more than ever, we met up with a couple of from germany who were committed to reducing prejudice and hatred. both professionally it and privately, the stopping to cima, muslin and mary mendo, whose jewish had been happily married since 2020. they visit the berlin zoo, like any other family. and their living proof that peaceful coexistence is possible, in spite of different nationalities and religions,

the infinity meg as active because people are always asking how can you live together as a muslim and did you, are you compatible? don't to religions clash on and off and on the in our daily lives that doesn't really play any part on it. we celebrate jewish holidays. we celebrate muslim holidays are going to be suppression. we speak hebrew men or do at home, and somehow it's a good thing, at least for us, the voice mean distance and the i think with his references, i married was born in israel and came to germany as a student. now he's director of the and frank educational center in frankfort and a consultant to george evello on anti semitism sub a new a team. i grew up in frankfort as the daughter of pakistani refugees. now she's a political scientist doing research for the german interior ministry on issues of a slow i'm a phobia in germany. their union is one of life. obviously, statements from often people see us as a symbol of hope for the middle east conflict, but we're sorry to disappoint them. our marriage is not

a peace project. it's really just a normal marriage. i don't know, mileage you no matter how open and liberal the 2 communities may claim to be for many on both sides marriage between jews and muslims goes too far. the couple of parents also struggled to accept the that's with the steps kind of find. of course they weren't jumping for joy. neither of our families are free of the stereotypes and prejudices that are so prevalent that all not about the middle east conflict. either the tires in times in the mirror and family are directly affected by the consulate and each side has preconceived notions about the other. so at 1st it was hard work, but what really made a difference was simply a 1st actual meeting, the buses of a falling to and that's how this i thought to the all of the getting on the couple travel to jerusalem and visited both jewish and muslim holy sites. so i've got to

know mirror and the family in israel we met up with a couple in a berlin hotel since 2021. they've been writing a column entitled jewish muslim dinner for a major german newspaper. they also talk about their children and it is a 5 actually when it comes to the children, the question of judaism or islam is a far more important. one field advantage of that, for many people warned us that it wouldn't work. and they'll end up deciding on neither of them or they'll take one over the other in our daily lives, we have no problem saying everyone follows their own religion and then we experience other things together. and it's even nicer for us. it reaches our lives since the homeless terrorist attacks on israel of october 7th, 2023, and the subsequent military escalation in the middle east. the couple have been more focused on peace than ever and is the get. i think in the aftermath of the gods of war, even if it looks as if jews and muslims can only be enemies,

that's just not true. if can, of course, every community is made up of very different people. and it's these nuances that we try to find and for one, that's a scene, then now the couple has turned to call them into a book. at readings around germany, they discovered how curious many people are about their lives together. and about their perspective on the middle east conflict stacked else that's also encouraging . is that working together just feels very good for us and it's well received to both of these aspects, motivate us over and over, along with our private circumstances and our families. so many new things have taken shape and that's it that i saw through noise and stop. stop under cima and mirror and mental intent to carry on devoting their efforts towards greater dialogue and understanding between jews and muslims, but professionally and privately. italian cuisine is popular all over the world,

but one man is challenging. it's provenance saying that many of time recipes aren't that old or aren't even a tying writer and historian, alberto grandy is making bold claims that are ruffling feathers at home and abroad . this man is turning everything we thought we knew about italian cuisine on his head. you seem to the video this within the major italian tourism cities like florence to rome and venice. it seems to me seem damning. the tourist has become a national for the board employees to feed them any old garbage and claim. it's fine italian cuisine, you know, there's no reason to say italians cook any better than the french germans or austrian, steve and t, z o. and you'll see a tree out there to grand d as an associate professor of economic history at the university of parma. in his books, he claims that pizza has been a thing in italy only since the 1950s through parmesan cheese comes from wisconsin and that italian graham of camp cook what truth is there to his claims to help make

sense of it. we turned to modeling a facade, the editor in chief of black regina adelia, and she's advocating for a tally and present to be included on eunice goes list of intangible cultural heritage. of course we also talk to ordinary italians theory number one, me a pilot and pizza isn't from italy. that'd be secondary. go to the pizza we today, and the pilots and pizza is more american and then it is a tally. you want me to kind of case that. yeah, and excuse me, pizza is the quintessential italian dish that everyone knows it and loves it. in fact, pizza was founded as far back as the 18th century in naples. sure, it looked a bit different back then. pizza was an inexpensive meal for naples, poor lower class bred topped with whatever was left over at home. the pizza case. humans have a need for the great emigration of the late 19th and early 20th centuries and over

the pizza. eden and naples was a very basic product anymore, so they would have disappeared from our cuisine and okay, then the apollo tends themselves despise that stuff on the piece like oh, rest of these pizza has certainly evolved and changed. of course, that doesn't mean it doesn't have an origin. no can the birthplace of keep them in naples not theory. number 2, until the 1980s olive oil was only used as lamp fuel to day italians consume per capita up to 13 leaders of olive oil a year. but is that a new thing that's almost like it's on the silver olive. oil was never part of the famous mediterranean diet for cooking. they used pork fat instead come again, even in the 19th century travellers raved about the taste of italian oils. clement that goes to the quick well there was certainly people producing high quality olive oil and the kinds that the vast majority of italians knew was a very poor quality. okay,

was scarce and there wasn't much of it and it was expensive and it was used for everything. but cooking theory number 4, the only true parmesan cheese comes from wisconsin if at any time a john original know is an essence of a tie and cheese that originated in the middle ages period. that's true, but it's changed significantly over the centuries. the original parmesan was softer, its texture firm or not until after world war 2 did tell you in parmesan, evolved into the crumbling hard cheese. we know today in wisconsin though it still me like it was one a 100 years ago. the been so was able to taste on the parmesan, our grandparents knew. we have to go to milwaukee, not pharma, a 1000 year old cheese is just awful though. theory number 5, italian grandmother's can't cook normally quit. so not only do the grandmothers

have of this country know how to cook their, the heart of a time cruising normally that. yeah. and italian grandmothers didn't even know how to cook, or rather they could maybe cook 3 dishes like everyone else in the world come into the holiday dishes. tortellini was anya, has that sort of thing like that. the rest was just making do with what little they had me say. i run jas. equal quickbook will get sale under the tele and co and every tradition truly about protection. and i'm changing recipes picking the she left the whole world knows italian cuisine. i don't think it's just 100 years old or 50 or 10 years old and the yeah, these dishes have been handed down from great grandfather to grandfather, to the children. and so on these down through the generation equals in janetta fione across the corner of my work is really to show that traditions are invented and above all that they can change. so that's essentially what it's all about. mean to phone them down. yes, almost recruiter. i know, of course, that we dress up differently a 1000 years ago, lived differently and had different ingredients. and that doesn't mean we should

deny that we were on we're going to be, i'm going to got a kid really. i think a lot of love goes into preparing food and italy to meet the for them. and whether it's $400.00 or 40 years old, italian cuisine is ultimately more than just the sum of its ingredients. even it's harshest. critics can't resist it. any fashion designer knows that if your collection makes it onto the runways of paris, you've made it to the top. and that's been the case for german designer marie christina stats. we caught up with her in paris to see which designs launched her career. the with a low key, minimalistic look, fashion designer, mostly you, christina stats hasn't only conquered the streets of paris over the past decade. her elegant collections have also found a growing international fanbase. most people might be unaware that the creator behind the french label is actually german, but the name gives away another part of her identity. go share is french for left

handed. spinning things and i'm left handed. and the next thing was actually given to me by a teacher, the powers fashioned school. wonderful. because i worked with my left hand hand um i just have a one for me. but to me, it has the deep meaning of going against the grain and doing your own thing. that is definitely, i have a sense. it's something personal. the gap has ruined it is for cynthia mcconick change certain things about how we came into the world. well, how we look and see things, and that's why i chose the name for my brand, for the markets, and that's my view. christina founded her label in paris in 2013. at that point she had already worked for luxury brands like diane, fun furstenberg. nowadays she exhibits her collections twice a year at the parents press up. forte shows. this is gabby. what do you think you have may have? i think that took some coverage. that's when i look back. i sometimes think i was

a bit naive, but i didn't start out with a huge collection to begin with, i only had a few homes, some places. then i got my 1st fashion week show and bought my shape, bought some pieces. so i thought i'll just keep going my attempt at her studio and central paris, she employs between 12 and 15 people. she has a lot of responsibility as both a fashion designer and ceo. is this mission the some point? it's not just about session anymore, but also a business, a company that you are running, and then you start asking yourself very different questions and things which one are collect ceilings and then you don't just think about one collection. but also about your team, about sales, about digitalization. did you tell the vehicle the christina was only 20 when she left germany. but the designer now in her early forties still feels a connection to her roots and even think some german components can be seen in her

collection. i think it's a certain straightness, a kind of structure. many of my pieces are very clean and minimal, even with that isn't fair. when my per discrete luxury garments without big flashy logo is, are now sold all over europe, north america, and asia. but from of the christina, there is no stereo, typical goes their customers. now that in the adam wise, i think they do have something in common in that they are looking for a certain tailoring that may be looking for things that they can weigh both day and evening of the app. and i also work with mens with fabrics creation, different shapes in volume lumen. it's unique fashion made with fine fabrics like this top for example, set and it has an open back. and this punk can either hang down like this, if you switch to that and for hang an order or kind of,

you can sort of fold it up and sling ahead of your shoulders the whole class and wonder about in short on time notices. then it becomes a kind of double top and drop it in the show. the model only was over one shoulder, allowing it to full of it. when worn. it looks minimalist and sophisticated at the same time, something that appeals to a lot of her customers same. so i liked it to brenda, so timeless, i honestly loved the look from own who collections secret x. so it's really not sure if this even all, for that, for me, these are close for a woman who is cool and elegant. at the same time, a woman who's a bit artsy, yet refined to, i think it's up to a 100 in the office. my think hosting his thoughts has gained a firm place and the international fashion seen with her under stated luxury, close the net stylish note. we come to the end of the show, be sure to subscribe or follow us on social media. as always,
