Welcome to the program and we started where protesters have staged a massive rally in the capital minsk at least a 100 people have been arrested tens of thousands to fatah government warning and return to the streets for the 4th sunday in a row they demanded that president aleksander step down. Leader has ruled the country for 26 years in early august he claimed one office again with 80 percent of the vote but many outside observers and the protesters rejected the election thousands were detained and several killed in the unrest that followed the election. And lets cross straight to mint now and get our correspondent Nick Connelly on the line nic. Of mass protest how is the mood today. Well this was an extraordinary day. Seen in the last few weeks of people hundreds of thousands despite the filthy whether it was raining. But the people stayed and they walked almost as a president ial palace where the police have cordoned it off and were looking over across the metal. For the most part a kind of carnival atmosphere there were indeed people were out with their dogs and even their small children. Not a sense that people had been scared by government threats that had been repeated all through the week and weve seen arrests of students at demonstrating all through the week here in minsk but people stayed out and in big numbers of people very very Creative Signs out there as they come traditional towards the end of the protest when people were starting to go home in the crowds with police in plainclothes. Coming off people making seemingly random arrests i saw my 1st smashed window today. It seems was. That was smashed by Police Looking for a demonstrator who they were trying to arrest. People in screaming at the police trying to stop the rest and. Walking off with. Them. We had a hard time getting in touch with each other we tried for hours and suspected internet and mobile networks had been shut down what can you tell us about that. Well thats become a kind of tradition here now that on these protests sunday theyll dorothys really reduce the capacity of. Normal phone calls some mobile operators have admitted that this is based on a direct order from the authorities others try to keep it quiet what theyre trying to achieve isnt really clear obviously they can prevent disasters coordinating and talking to one another they can prevent coverage Media Coverage weve all seen other attempts to prevent Media Coverage especially with harrison and even arrests and sentences especially for local deloris and journalists but after all when you have hundreds of thousands people out on the streets with their smartphones in hand these images are going to come out and pretty much in vain but nevertheless that is the thing that seems to become the new normal here yeah its 29 i guess of the protests and its to us it seems the momentum really show no sign of slowing people see other t. V. Anything. I think theres just a huge sense of relief that people have found the voice of 26 years of one man in charge it feels like people suddenly want to talk about politics something that was very marginal in their lives time now you have people coming up to each other as journalists talking about politics and has become part of their everyday life is not something that just happens on sundays not just on the screen theres something happening in all different kinds of forms where this is going no one can safely print with any certainty right now but people certainly dont give the impression of being scared all being willing to just go back and say sitting at home while regains control of this country ok thanks for that insight nic good to have you once again nic connelly in minutes. Hong kong police have arrested hundreds of people at antigovernment protests and city demonstrators are furious about a decision to postpone sundays planned legislative elections theyre also angry about a sweeping National Security log posed by china that gives beijing unprecedented power to crack down on critics in hong kong. The was reclaim hong kong they chant and hong kong people unite. These prodemocracy campaign is should be voting today in elections to the citys legislature instead that out on the streets after all sorry shes delayed the poll until next summer citing a spike in coded 19 cases. Was that that protests have been matched with an andris bonds with Police Firing pettable rules at some. And using stop and search on others as was the was that the the new National Security law imposed by china bans demonstrations like the ones i know the reason people are protesting right now the protests my style is planned by the phone calls so we will have to fight for that space through the voice out what we are care what we want to talk about the old saw about oh i think the Hong Kong Government is here to suppress peoples rights to express their demands about what the future should look like a lot of rights of being abused them all for. Coming on to the composition activists time tactic she is accused of using seditious words which are also banned oh oh protium ocracy campaign is began.

Arts and culture may have taken a hit from the crown a virus but venice is in the middle of hosting the entertainment industrys 1st major festival since the pandemic began there are temperature checks at all the entrances to the 77th Venice Film Festival and everyone must wear a mask but that hasnt kept people away with some big names gracing the red carpet. And for more on this lets bring in scott rowe from the culture who is in venice so scott whats the whats the talk at the festival yeah well who right now i mean this this this weekend the big talk has been Vanessa Kirby the british actress who you might know from the Netflix Series the crown where she plays Princess Margaret shes here in venice with 2 new films and 2 utterly different roles in the 1st pieces of a woman she plays a an American Woman traumatized by the death of her child and in the world the comedy period drama she plays a pioneer housewife in 1900 marco who starts up a forbidden affair with a neighboring woman 2 i dont know different roles but nessa kirby is excellent in both and these are 2 roles that are utterly unlike anything ive ever seen her and before i mean for me shes really the breakout star of this years Venice Film Festival and i think shes a front runner to pick up the actors award one thats handed out here in venice at the end of the week ok will have to watch for that what have been your favorite movies so far. Well ive liked a lot in the competition but i like a couple films outside of competition one i really really loved was called apples its a greek movie and its sort of a fairy tale its set in an analog world so no cellphones no Digital Technology but theres a problem in this world theres people are starting to lose their memory theres a wave of amnesia and people are forgetting the sort of basic facts of life basically the film is an allegory about what Digital Technology is doing to us when we sort of upload our own memories into these apple like devices hence the name apples and another film that i really really liked also out of competition is also about Digital Technology book in a completely different manner the director youll recognize her name its called pull up its called the granddaughter of Francis Ford Coppola the niece of Sofia Coppola and shes here with her 2nd movie called main street and this is a satire of social media celebrity is about sort of the rise and fall of a you tube influencer played by Andrew Garfield completely different style than apples very brash very in your face but i really love this movie and these 2 movies apples and mainstream because they show sort of the the possibilities of cinema and how far you can go with the art form and really besides just the great weather thats why i come every year to the Venice Film Festival yes and were all envious of your time and quick last question we hear there are some political films this year what kind of topics have been discussed. Almost everything i mean youve had a great of the documentary about great to tune back which was on this weekend very very powerful film and on the other side dramas like this aida which is about the shrub and for me sort of the definitive film cinematic treatment of that historical of that its a bit unusual for venice to have so much politics but this year they are really making play space for it and i really think its an improvement ok. In venice thank you for that. And we turn to sports now in formula one Lewis Hamiltons charge toward a 7th World Championship hit a roadblock at the italian grand prix after he received a stop go penalty that ended his hopes of winning his demotion from the front of the field open the door for french gas lead to take his 1st ever formula one checkered flag carlo science of mclaren came 2nd and canadian lance stroll rounded out the podium placings.

Youre watching news up next to sports life with a look back at the Champions League final during the pandemic dont forget you can stay up to date on her website t w dot dot com follow us on twitter and instagram on a spice or thanks for watching. Today dont miss our highlights. Program. D. W. Dot com highlights. Like. My gorgeous. Food for the russians so. Steeped. In so many different walks of life. Some are. Oddly trying to put all of that come straight from the heart to see even when theres no more delusional. Inches. From the fruit of the law to their final resting place the russians d. W. Documentary. And. Football Champions League anyway. Thank you. All for its very very very very hard on this really really excited because were going to live been in the Champions League and 10 of the whats not to be excited about lets go lets go there you know. All right. 51st. Finally arrived in lisbon we landed its champions big time im so excited does it get any better than this oh my god ok to mix up whats going on you cant. Do that dont get. Me. Thanks to the coronavirus situation this year Champions League looks a little different now in theory its actually pretty cool because its an 8 team mini tournaments instead of the standard 2 leg home and away tie lets actually go back and look at why they even started doing this home an away game which in theory makes a lot of sense now one the tournament 1st came to be a long long time ago wasnt it gives the european cup it was kind of ridiculous to think that people from what say partisan belgrade were going to go to london to watch a match and the money came from the 304050 that. In people that were going to be in the stadium so to take away the Home Team Advantage they decided to play 2 legs one home and the other hall so everyones happy now i can only see thinking with all the t. V. Money that comes from football are the fans irrelevant to us. And you took us to the right. I am working actually im watching the Prematch Press Conference this is what footballs come to nowadays. But this is literally happening to kilometers away from us. You know. To make this right you know what im kind of all over this the questions are shit and i was watching the training and the 15 minutes of open training they filmed for us to watch was literally the warm up. This is a little bit hard can you get me to drink. I dont think you are. Greatly there was supposed to be 16000 fans coming to lisbon for this tournament weve been here almost a week and ive literally seen like 4 or 5 you know i lets go to the center and see if we can find any of them. People like nobodys here always really talking about it theres no fans and Champions League is so much more than just the game its the build up its the fans but boy are. All the fans coming from all over behind me here and the events are happening you know that as we stand with a man can tell you where the game not and not and something nice for the national. Having an american. Hey guys im here with my friend taufiq he works for a id and he has an accreditation to get into the matches something that most journalists right now would probably kill you for imagine close your eyes and dream yourself into a World Without corona and have a tournament here the same place the same time with the same teams 200000 crazy fans running around in their jerseys and against arrows cheering making big grew at least in the city i would love to see that but its totally different what do you think that it shows because theres a big discussion especially in germany about this football fans and its taking away the soul of football and the fact that theyre doing this and theres no fans that show that theyre not important fans or i dont think so i think they try to rescue the whole thing i think for a lot of clubs this money smaller clubs like me all. They need the money from the Champions League they need the money from the football they not making their money by selling tickets to the fans they make their money to buy all the expensive messy players. Bye bye bye bye setting t. V. Rights and if the t. V. Is not is not paying the money then we will not see football on that level again. So despite the unfortunate circumstances surrounding this years Champions League which we all know a lot of fans. And the lack of atmosphere its still a pretty mouth watering clash because we have 2 teams absolutely steamrolled football up until this point now both p. S. G. And byron would complete the trouble if they won this years Champions League p. S. G. Would win their 1st game is it because this is their 1st appearance in the final and byron this is kind of like what they strive for because they win the bundesliga every year but they havent been able to win in europe so its kind of like ok you guys are good in the bundesliga but you never do anything on a world level so theyre a little bit obsessive this is well now both of these teams are undefeated in their last i think like 12 games so were in for some pretty quality football hold. Hard to theres a little more going on than the last couple days but still close like good c german regionality good game lets talk to some fans hate c using im. Not good looking and we are disrespectful there is a demand to claim simonton you know and i dont know i wish something very good for tonight was so much elation to mention but. Tonight heres to you fans and were buying so you know what i think is funny is that like the typical journalists who are not like on the ground with the fans interacting and then going to games are usually like just in the stadium like hello im reporting here for whatever whatever it. Takes down the fine print. Should you go so you can give me just how you turned. My name is here and i was 1st of. All the foreign notes from. 97 to serve and now you know every final. Every farmer im very very. Glad. My post farmer that i dont see. Oh oh oh oh oh. Right over now this is pretty much as good as it gets all the journalists are lining up to doing their lives hermans kind of getting a little bit nervous as you can see people are trying to get a glimpse of anything making. It almost exciting thing weve been all day. Finding the building brands. As we can think of this kind of were going to want to hear. What you would like to look in the book i. Like you guys are from munich right were from germany from germany for munich fans yeah why did you guys come here if you knew that you couldnt get into the stadium or would prefer the original because there we like to support our team and to be seen just appalled is also possible from outside the stadium so thats why were here do you mind if we come with you guys to watch the game play not yet but there was a little her father though. Theyre not the biggest numbers but theyre definitely the loudest. I mean so its not a stadium with kind of cool People Finance and police would love to get that. C 7 if your goal is no fun but what if the race for the. First you know that you know it but never. Got through because you dont mention. It play the. Piano i dont want to go oh sleuths overload. Dont ask dont fish dont. Find out youre not school or join up its not as big a bright as last year but theyre still a party this year. 0. 00. 00 i think its one of the business of my life yes to be your enjoying was a hard body image and when you live so as happy as i am that Champions League is back we got to watch them exciting games of the one game knockout i hope this never ever happens again because if you look around you would never be able to know that byron just won the Champions League. Anywhere he wrote because football is about so much more than just those 90 minutes on the pitch its about the passion that unites people everywhere and makes him chapel across the continent just to watch their team even though they cant even go in the stadium and you know what im talking about because. Nothing is ever going to get the substitute the goosebumps you get when you hear youll never walk alone at anfield or you jump for joy with the yellow on dortmund or you watch your team win the treble and an empty list then.
