On a range of subjects that concern also coming up today. I am grateful documentary following the credible path climate activists. Has taken since asking how Famous School strike 2 years ago. And the Jewish Museum in frankfurt reopens offer a 5 year renovation. One of the worlds great musicians the german violinist sophie moto recently suggested she might go into politics to represent the arts and the artists to a suffering because of the corona pandemic over the weekend she was here in berlin to receive the top instrumental prize at germanys premier Classical Music awards she spoke exclusively to d. W. Correspondent. About a range of subjects that concern in the music world. To have fans she slowly dedicated to her music. To different case in heading into the d w. Shes angry about the governments coronavirus policy she says its having a devastating and disproportionate effect on the outs. This isnt bad its totally illogical i think its outrageous this unequal treatment but nothings being done perhaps because people dont realize how many other people are either directly or indirectly dependent on musicians ill mention. One major backing and. Contrary to previous indications said shes not planning to swap the concert hall for Political Office but she does want to draw attention to the plight of artists if nothing is done we have to find other ways to draw attention to ourselves oh its has many faces were not all violin players to pretend artists are not relevant is to refuse to recognize the capabilities of civilized humans people that just each drink can buy clothes of. Motor is also passionate about another issue racism within the Classical Music industry she wants equal opportunities for musicians regardless of ethnicity. Russian trade i refuse to hide the fact that there is racism in the Classical Music business there certainly is and you have to act against it or when youre a witness of that you have to speak out. I wont go into detail but ive always defended fellow musicians when necessary. He said but despite everything and as wolfy muhtar loves her profession especially when she can immerse herself in a musical adventure like this one with John Williams hedwigs theme from the soundtrack of harry potter conducted by the composer himself. Defends her decision to play film music against criticism from purists child with him specific at the John Williams is able like all great composers to write in a way that feels easily accessible but when you examine the music more deeply you see how clever the harmonies are. How detail the orchestration or the kent state instrumental darkest how to harness wolfie much up brings joy to people with her music so what brings her joy. Has been irishmen im a person whos relatively easy to please im happy when the sun is shining when i see a nicely colored leaf it doesnt take much to satisfy me i dont think. Well kind of. If there were a nobel prize for Environmental Activism surely 17 year old grade to tune back would be the youngest recipients 6 true ordinary young woman from sweden almost single handedly created a Worldwide Movement for Climate Change i am grateful is a new documentary which follows teenage climate activists grates on International Crusade as the subtitle of the film says she is herself a force of nature. My most proper. And i want you to parry. Shes the iconic leader of the Global Climate Strike Mission to save the planet with emotional speeches that go viral around the world we are in the midst of a mass extinction. Now no one has really kind of addressed the urgency of it in a way which is so profound that talent that she has and kind of talking about this and understanding this issue and reading so much information that she does thats like a huge talent Nathan Grossman was on hands during the very 1st School Strike his camera captured how create his message got more and more attention. First she was very shy but she had this very special way of speaking about the kind of Climate Change which was start shadow way of condensing it down from something that was hard true grass to something very understandable within just a few months what started as a lone protest became a Global Youth Movement fridays for a future the film i am creator traces her progress from a Swedish School go to an internationally known climate activist grossmans camera shows the world from the great us perspective an intimate subjective trait at our level. Away from the limelight greater is nothing like the formidable character of the media see shes much more introverted playful sometimes miss g. B. s and often alone. Suffer from but i have the film asks how great his condition has influenced her mission. Were so interested in understanding how affects her way of thinking about the world and i think its very central. In the film i also think its very central to the way she kind of sees trying to change. Grossman captured spectacular footage of greater and her father sailing to the u. N. Plan. It. Is all wrong. I am going to track the journey of the heroin. As if the future of the primate rested on just one person. Its a study portrayed nevertheless. Despite the pandemic. Back on the streets young people are calling for change more urgently than ever connected to mean bag as. That film is generally in the next weeks coming out around the world. My colleague here to talk about that and other things its received mixed reviews adrian has does make for a very engaging coming of age movie against the background of Global Warming and the fridays futures protest but it is all rather familiar of course the narrative has inspired people around the world to get behind a very important cause and this film is an inspiring summary of the story so far but not much knew instantly the swedish filmmaker whod never made a documentary before initially started filming on a low quality format save on stories he thought he might be able to get a local news channel interested in the story how wrong he was now its on the basis. Theres another movie out. But this is a feature film this is paradise for the story of. Its one of the most expensive swiss movies ever made and it tells the story of eco warrior. And i think we can see some pictures of the real life. From the 27000 documentary the case he was a swiss ethnologist environmentalist to lift with the. Pen and try in the 1000 campaign with them against locking companies against the forestation he became a high profile activist and the late he disappeared under mysterious circumstances hes never been to this day i. Believe the film was 10 years in the making. It was lets take a look at the film we can see when show current who plays Bruno Mansour he prepared for his role by living for a time in the jungle learning the penan language members of the pen and tripe were cast in the movie and it was shot in some of the original locations there are some fantastic pictures of the rainforest and the destruction caused by the logging industry its nice boring story but once again there has been some criticism that its a little kitschy bit too much the white savior mode in the film we see mantha heading the protests the protesters in tribal costumes but in reality we know that as we saw earlier they quite often were dressed in Morton Clothing but nonetheless great adaptation of a very amazing true story. As always thanks very much. The Jewish Museum in frankfurt is to reopen after a 5 year riff costing 50000000 euros and with a completely new permanent exhibition show many personal aspects of jewish life it also has a new onyx for temporary exhibitions is a sneak preview.

The Jewish Museum in frankfurt opened in 1988 and has been renovated and expanded over the past 5 years its societal function is just as important today as when it 1st opened. It we will see i think we can see that the president is bringing up a lot of topics again we have to talk about racism and antisemitism move than we did 10 or 20 years ago. And theres the question how can we counter this. I think its very important that we impart knowledge and this museum does just that is.

This is it we knew it was live from berlin landmark lawsuit john google and the dot the u. S. Government is suing google the trump ministration alleging that the tech giant abused its dominant dominance of the Online Search and advertising markets also coming up a curfew imposed in nigerias commercial capital lagos to curb or anti Police Protests but demonstrators unfazed gathered in defiance will get the latest from reports spotted on the ground and. This city a gun just lies gather the peel meters away from the camp when the car of the people who live here never thought they would be done part of the fighting the billabong civilians pay the price as in the conflict threatens to spill beyond the disputed region a correspondent reports from azerbaijan. Thank you so much for your Company Everyone the u. S. Has filed a landmark Anti Trust Lawsuit against google it alleges that the tech giant has been abusing its dominance as Online Search engine to fend off rivals will google controls about 90 percent of global web searches the company has long denied claims of unfair competition the lawsuits also alleges that google uses brilliance of dollars to pay phone manufacturers to ensure. It is the default Search Engine on browsers is the u. S. Governments most significant act to protect competition since this groundbreaking case against microsoft more than 20 years ago. Lets get you more on this story joining me from new york now to discuss this in greater detail is to the financial correspondent yes of course the yen so flesh this out for us if you will what is google exactly being accused of. There is no doubt that to google is the dominant player when it comes to Search Engines and also to search the big question that is being discussed now is so if google is some actually violating antitrust laws and here in the United States google is sailfish same by the way that theyre not violating anything theyre not forcing people to use their Search Engines for example but people actually want to use them on the other side there and you partment of justice is saying that at the practices that the Search Engines for example are preinstalled and on most divided devices that google is actually hindering the competition and was that also innovation i was also difficult is this lawsuit what have the reactions been so far. Theyre clearly i mean its a its a big big case and as you mentioned before its the biggest case since 1909 big then it was microsoft who had to defend itself by the way 9 198. 00 it was also the year that google was founded in a garage in the worst case for google the Company Might have who are going to court get force to break itself up in pieces or they would just have to change some of their practices but this case clearly will take quite some time it could take years before the whole case is decided lets talk a little bit more about that yes your raise a really reference to a potential break up what could this mean for big tech and consumers because it is a breakup now inevitable. Well it just by far not decided and if you look at the reaction on no wall street so that also tells you a little bit of the sentiment the stock of alphabet so the Mother Company of google is make julie even gaining a bit in todays session so wall street does not seem to be too afraid at least for now that anything will change anytime soon but on the other side google clearly is the guinea pig here because there is a lot of scrutiny on the other big tech giants who also have a dominant in one of politic. Positions in the tech world if youre seeing Companies Like Facebook Like apple like amazon for instance so all of them they will very closely watch the case and its a google would lose that could make it easier for lawmakers to old also go after some of those other tech giants yes quarter reporting from new york thank you. So when i bring up to speed now with some of the stories making news around the world. Protesters in thailand spread out across the capital bangkok to sing the National Anthem at 6 in the evening while showing so we think our salute has become a movement symbol well it was the latest action in defiance of bans on public gatherings protesters want the government to resign constitution and reforms to the monarchy. French authorities have ordered the closure of a mosque in paris saying it helped provoke last weeks murder of a teacher the mosque had shared a video railing against a teachers use of cartoons of the muslim Prophet Muhammad in class its director insists that sharing a clip was not a call to violence. Around 1000. 00 prisoners have from a jail in eastern democratic republic of congo after the compound was attacked by rebels local authorities claim an Islamist Militant Group at least one in men died during the raid a similar number of prisoners fled the jail in an attack 3 years ago. Authorities in nigeria say almost 2000 inmates have broken out of 2 Correctional Centers in the city of binnie it happened after crowds attacked officers on guard duty at the facilities were earlier a 24 hour curfew was imposed in the commercial capital lagos as protests over Police Violence continue to walk the country the young nigerian is have been taking to the streets for the past 2 weeks over abuses by the police is notorious special anti robbery squad well the outpouring of anger forced the government to scrap the unit altogether a week ago and promised reforms but protests have continued to swell as demonstrators demand more sweeping changes. Ok lets take you straight to the to our funny in a lagos funny why this curfew right now. The latest state governor tweeted today that there is an r. Q. Industry just chaos on the street and you know order to bring back lou and what is needed right now hes in a state is a curfew that is going to last for 24 hours he said literally that the protests that have begun as peaceful protests have quote generated into a monster and you can well imagine that this didnt go well done well the protesters who are as im speaking right now gathering in front of every clue store studio because they say well if theres a curfew that means you have to stand and stay where you are going to curfew stars so this thing they just go with the protests are taking place and just not move for 24 hours until this curfew is in place so clearly they dont want to stop the protests and they also make the government responsible for this criminal elements that are mingling into these demonstrations they say that they are sponsored by the government to bring an end to these protests by a curfew for example as we see developing right now in a sunny tell us about these protests what is the about. The or regional goals you say it was really to and Police Brutality by the soul of being a police unit known as a source of make sure that the police can agree on the very civilized people who are just going about their daily lives but now almost 2 weeks into the protests the protesters say well if we have achieved that sars has been the soul then maybe we can achieve even more because they say the solving sars doesnt mean that things have come to an end Police Brutality is still a huge issue across nigeria so the protesters taking to the streets because they say enough is enough on many levels not only when it comes to Police Brutality but when it comes to abuse of power and misuse of power in this country per se right and as you reported were showing pictures of crowds. Defined that curfew what are the nigerian authorities doing about the sars police unit. There were a few things today i was nervous said well thats quite unprecedented unprecedented for example is that authorities that the government the National Government that they actually apologized and they said that what happened so far be it comes to police the Police Responsibility wasnt there i think the police is supposed to protect the people and not be a violent to them so they apologized they said theyre going to be sold stars theyre going to replace it with a new you and its what theyre going to bring panels into other countries that are going to transparently make it open to everyone that change is taking place in this country but as i say again put this is a theyre very skeptical in fact whether this momentum that they have achieved so far is going to trickle down the real action when it comes to these changes really being put into action so they continue to take to the streets to make sure to ensure that they can hold the government to their promises accountable and its our reporting from Lagos Nigeria thank you.
