And in our series on german artists and colonialism and with more uses for work to bring forgotten colonial histories back to life. Well cinema is the real antidote to this pandemic those are the words of spanish director Pedro Almodovar and as the Venice Film Festival bravely resuscitate the festival circuit one can only hope that hes right suffice it to say the cinephiles in attendance were determined to keep the dream alive. Whether you. Judy president Cate Blanchett or spanish directing legend Pedro Almodovar theres no escaping this street. On the 1st night. This safely distance away and even at c. R. Cinema cinema cinema what can go for. Nothing but. Cinema is a lie even given the pandemic doing the Opening Ceremony swinton was honored with a golden lion for high lifes work then he is the 1st of the worlds major Film Festivals to take place in person since no down. On the 3rd day the most is almost back in its old swing the themes are once again in the spotlight not the measures required in order to show them. And my colleague scott roxboro joins us live from the lido in venice welcome scott there you are and you know this is so crazy bannister in a Global Pandemic so different from what youre used to whats hows it going. Yeah its going surprisingly well here i mean it is odd to be here with a mile staff wear masks in the cinema to have the sort of the smell the scent of disinfectant gel everywhere you go but it actually does still feel like a real Film Festival and i think that has so much to do with the fact that everybody here the stars like a plant child like Pedro Almodovar like Tilda Swinton but also all the ordinary film fans and film reviewers here are just desperate for venice to succeed they really are desperate for the Film Industry to get going again and to get restart again and i think thats really creating a wave of optimism here and here at venice all thats great to hear now we heard in the piece that its a very political festival this year especially the competition film so whats striking about the lineup for you this time around. Yeah its interesting because usually venice is a very big hollywood festival a lot of big oscar films start here and that hasnt happened this year because so many of those films are being held back by the studios so in their place we see a lot of more interesting european and political very political Strong Political films there was one the premier earlier this week. Which is both a celebrity its a massacre its a bosnian film and this is incredibly powerful it follows a u. N. Translator bosnian Woman Working for the u. N. Peacekeeping group translating between them and and the bosnians there and basically the film is about her struggle to try and desperately save her husband and her 2 sons from being swept up by the serbian military and then as we know be executed its its a very very powerful film i mean i think this will go down probably as the definitive film about the 70 to massacre it really shows how rawson about can be and how cinema can really. Be a testimony to history of very very powerful movie and i think will go far after its premiere here in venice ok scott were running shortly out of time but still early days what other highlights do you see coming up or amongst what youve seen so far. What one of the big highlights for me was a french film called lovers a completely different not a political movie at all film the wire sort of in the style of a clutch of oil just a film with a lot of sexiness a lot of danger and and crime and some incredible interiors a film to film to escape into and i think thats also something that were seeing a lot of here in venice that im really looking forward to in the coming days and what will we be checking in with you about on monday because we will check and obviously early days still whats coming up next week. Yeah monday i think is one of the big holiday of this festival one night in miami its a directorial debut of oscar winning actress regina king and its set 964 and its a civil rights drama about a real life meeting that occurred between Mohammad Ali Malcolm x. The singer sam cooke and jim brown the. N. F. L. Football player and not and civil rights activist im really excited to see this movie its already being seen as an oscar candidate so i think youll be really excited to see it on monday thanks very much scott well check in with you again on monday and between now and then happy viewing and stay safe. Well it was a huge win for the city of pottstown when German Software magnate has so plot now renovated a Historic Building to how was his Art Collection and the rich one is the museum exhibits works that range from the old masters to contemporary art and this week his long awaited impressionists join the Permanent Collection making one of the most impressive outside of france. Good morning i bought. The impressionists are strongly associated with france but now the barbering easy and imports damn near berlin can boast its own striking collection of impressionist paintings thanks to a permanent loan by german businessman fossil plattner. Mr platinum built the museum precisely for this moment he wants to share the paintings 103 of them with the public that was always his wish and its now been accomplished and once he fell in love with france as a sailor i as a nature lover because hes always been interested in bodies of water. Shifted mutism pass of flesh and how do you francis and the french impressionists i live next to the same river they wanted to be close to the river to the sea. Thats what fascinated him was another person near. Among the highlights of the class a collection are more than 34 morning paintings some of them are now on display for the 1st time. In years feel like theyre learning is perhaps the painter he succeeded the most in capturing be shirtless via he said that he wanted to paint what was between him and the motif under motif it means that he really takes you in here invited to dive into his works. Alongside monet many other impressionists are also featured alfred sees lees paintings of snow scenes standout. The impressionists were fascinated by snow because it gave a completely different outlook to landscapes they were familiar with but i think the really interesting thing with these landscapes is when you see them from far away you think of the color white but the closer you get you actually see that are painted so many different views of things sparkles and vibrates the certain details so you really need some time to discover the painting for yourself. With the platen i collect. Now i want to display the barbary to mean potsdam looks like any tool carries in the heart of germany. French companies are has not. Started performing as a child while suffering from leukemia her family moved to europe for her lifesaving treatment and due to language barriers she started to express herself through performance in order to cope with the pain well now shes based in berlin and she says her work is about healing. This quiet german a lake beholding secrets secrets of history mysteries that art could uncover. Things were hidden under the sand and makes the nature speak something here needs to happen a process or ritual of remembrance or saying goodbye or pass it has to happen artist. Felt that here. The town outside berlin with nazi bunker towers between houses like this one collapsed. Abandoned soviet barracks testified to the cold war. But it was a deeper layer of history that shocked her most a story nearly unknown and seldom told from the 1st world war people died in the camp because of hunger because of pneumonia germany already believed that people of color when not human during world war one prisoners from french and british colonies were kept here soldiers from africa and asia it was here that germany built its very 1st mosque meant to show what was taking care of the mostly muslim prisoners and they were not actually praying inside of the mosque it was too small for the amount of soldiers that were here which was up to 9000. 00 but actually the soldiers were praying on the fields on the outskirts with guns on the head. A century later found a space is now a camp for asylum seekers. Where the mosque stood it is now a parking lot. Only its 20 marker testifies to its existence. But because it was born in. Which she feels a personal connection to this points she came here to understand her own history me i found out so few years ago that my great grandfather had died in a german court on your count in off get on which used to be south come on the family has never buried his thoughts. Near the camp are the graves of inmates indian soldiers of the British Empire who died while prisoners here. Or wonders where the other bodies lying. There is not a trace of african soldiers here that are buried beneath. She believes there are traces in this nearby lake. I want to come here. And think about an underground. Archaeology of water. Or performance in arcadia how soldiers become mates together with artist. Is about remembering and mythologizing those who died. And thank you and enable you to believe here is a voice is of the left into need incentives they have found a way i can talk to every language i can help you to it and which is to come back here was a way to bury those voices that were raised and those soldiers that were murdered and make sort of. Yes act of healing and of burial in this water. The work also uses original audio recordings from the colonial prison camp. Believes that some contain the voices of female prisoners whose stories she says historians have ignored. And i dont think that history disappears i think its to take.
