Alexander
Explorer and Conqueror
Without doubt, after Alexander the Great, the world was not the same as before.
During his reign of only elven years, he founded the largest world empire in the history of antiquity.
He conquered Asia Minor, Egypt and Persia and advanced as far as India.
Due to his conquests, the Greek and oriental cultures blended into Hellenism, which shaped the ancient world for more than 300 years.
Alexander was one of the most important commanders and statesmen in history. An impressive personality with a strong will.
He risked his own life in battles and was a model of courage and vigour for his soldiers.
He could be generous towards his minions and adversaries, but also very cruel.
He was intent on expanding Greek civilisation to the end of the known world.
But who was the real Alexander, subject of numerous legends?

Product Piracy
Counterfeiting takes place in almost all economic sectors – textiles, watches, car parts, machine parts, tools, accessories, software and medicines. Some counterfeits are easy to recognise, others are so well-executed that even experts have difficulty distinguishing between original and imitation. This DVD covers the development of a product from idea to manufacture. Once a product has become a trademark, product pirates appear on the scene.
Pupils Practise Inclusion
When people come together, no matter under what concomitant circumstances – ultimately, it is about how these people meet and how openly they interact with one another.
Ceramic
Ceramics are indispensable in our everyday lives. We eat from ceramic plates, drink from ceramic cups, use tiled ceramic bathrooms. But how is ceramic manufactured? The film reveals the secrets of this fascinating material! We get to know more about the beginnings of ceramic in the Old World of Egypt and Mesopotamia, about Greece, China and Rome. We gain interesting insights into the valuable earthenware and are also shown the exquisite further development of the "white gold". Today this versatile material is irreplaceable in industry, too. Whether in space or as an easily compatible substitute in medicine, ceramic is applied in many places.
