Product Piracy
Original or Imitation
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.
Is product piracy a harmless offence? How damaging and dangerous is it truly? What legal principles are violated? How are counterfeits produced and what dangers result from that? The damage to the industry is significant. Apart from the economic losses, the damage to the image is severe. The deceived consumer may become a victim to quality defects in the case of material fatigue, safety defects or the wrong materials or ingredients. Legally, the industry can protect itself with patents and designs to take action against counterfeits. The film also shows protection concepts to allow a distinction between original products and counterfeit goods.

Inclusion
Madita is eleven and blind. She does not want to go to a special school but to a regular grammar school. She says she feels "normal" there. Jonathan is eight and has a walking disability. He likes going to the school where he lives. Here, his best friend sits next to him. Max Dimpflmeier, a teacher who is severely deaf, explains that school life is not easy. Quote Max Dimpflmeier: "You don't want to attract attention, you want to avoid saying that it is necessary for you that 70 people adjust to your situation." People on their way to inclusion.
Blogging
The weblog or blog, for short, as a medium is not much older than this century. Blogs came into being in the World Wide Web as ’messages from below’, as web pages from web creators who wanted to share their view of the world with the world. They are short notes, long texts, pictures, videos, which are posted loosely and at random intervals to the world for an undefined public.
