Be more difficult to express criticism in the future we talk to those who are directly affected people working in the cultural scene in brandenburg and saxony 1st when ran the books capital pottstown. Which pieces are we still allowed to perform the creating bodies again i experienced the same thing in east germany when we smuggled books across the border just to recover if that starting again the freedom of thoughts would be addressed. Other artists are also concerned like the ones from potsdam. One deep sense who was censoring different interpretations again that would be a big threat to the freedom of culture. And it would limit our ability to act as societies mira and to keep an open dialogue so that i think is a soft in the awful india look to and. Artists in saxony share these worries like here interest just look for the future is political and it will. By that way the question is which means will use they will have to be certain strategies for example a complex topic like Climate Change can be dealt with in a traditional drama we have to find other strategies to entertain and inform people to make them think and get them to change perspective especially considering that the i if he is a party who doesnt believe in Climate Change which is democratized his artistic aim of hundreds must be like it yes and i. Will not directly affected as a publisher simply because we get little to no funding so they cant take that away from us anyway so we can act freely and also a bookstore can run as usual and shouldnt notice any more pressure than before but writers could see themselves confronted with other problems they depend on grants and prizes and of course i could be put under more pressure showing strong givers and killed off the bone feeder obert the internet so many of us work internationally art in general is international thats why this is an attack on the arts the rise of the right wing populist is extremely dangerous for us as artist can strike seemed fairly sure. Joining me now is my colleague michael okwu who was at the elections in brandenburg indeed you were one of the people talking to those people involved in the arts so what would just tell us what the atmosphere was like of elections what crazy enough in the end i have experienced a great relief in the culture saying because everybody was expecting the worst and that is a right wing party in the government but a lot of people vote for that day and now the coaches see it has to deal with that and now everyone is willing to face the dialogue and to look forward and to stand up more than ever for better use like freedom and tolerance and then you told me that they become more political again. Ok but why were offices working in the scene so worried about the rise of this party. Well because they already observed some certain tendencies if team members already discussed in public gets and bad art and whether we need that at all so this could be the end of the freedom for the artist if you might think and even if there are no attacks financing could be reduced or radically canceled youve been talking also to the renowned film. House indeed. For those who might not remember him won an oscar for the drama course once anythings what did he have to say about the election yes indeed i met him in his house and put some bob and as we all know this is a place with a long film history put some problems back and for him its a very important topic and this is what he has to say. The quick shift to the right always question is culture and one of their mottos is we dont need culture because they see culture as something that belongs to an elite and we dont need that. Thats for the elite and of no relevance to the people and that is of course nonsense because every person. Every culture is a necessary part of life culture speak task to raise awareness and to dont get into peoples minds with propaganda i couldnt use propaganda either you get there through emotions and feelings and by telling stories this is how we actually show this can be done after. We can do it would have to be turned into stories that shows us how it can be done with my Life Experience should have told me that it changes take time and im an optimist but im not naive but i dont think that there is any kind of new nazi threat. On a go far at all. So if you think my did you think everythings over now theres no sort of. Course not but everybody is now alarmed and aware and the car just seen is now on a mission and this is to defend the freedom of art ok micah thank you very much indeed for. Moving on to a small Film Festival that took place over the weekend. Not far from him berlin interesting it is called the without borders Film Festival its a bit different to other festivals in that theres no prizes theres no real glitz and glamor this is because the films shown focus on serious issues of our times concerning human rights and human dignity.

The documentary voices of the city follows a cuban family and their American Dream. But the American Dream isnt all its cracked up to be.
