Allergies
Development and Therapy
The flowering spring meadow, the cute cat from the neighbour’s garden or the bowl with strawberries are a source of joy to most people. Not to all, though. Because to those suffering from allergies contact with certain animals, plants or foods has unpleasant consequences. Quote girl: “Well, I’ve got an itchy rash here and problems breathing and I sneeze a lot.“ Allergies have been widespread diseases for a long time. According to experts, every third person in Germany is affected. And the number of people suffering from allergies is increasing due to environmental impacts and other factors. All allergies have a common underlying cause. A substance that is actually harmless is mistakenly fought by the endogenous immune system.

Peer Mediation
Lena and Max attend the 7th form. Max is new in class. During a break, Max notices that Lena and her friend are laughing at him again. Max loses his temper! He slaps Lena in the face. That hurts and Lena runs back into the classroom with a red cheek. The growing conflict between the two has escalated. Just like Lena and Max, every day pupils all over Germany have rows with each other. At the Heinrich Hertz Gymnasium in Thuringia, pupils have been trained as mediators for years. At set hours, they are in a room made available by the school specifically for mediation purposes. The film describes the growing conflict between Max and Lena and shows a mediation using their example. In doing so, the terms “conflict” and “peer mediation” are explained in a non-technical way. The aims of peer mediation and its progress in five steps as well as the mediators’ tasks are illustrated. The art of asking questions and “mirroring”, which the mediators must know, is described and explained. Together with the comprehensive accompanying material, the DVD is a suitable medium to introduce peer mediation at your school, too.
Rights and Obligations
Three girls of different ages: Anna is 17, Paula 15 and Lena 13. Before the law, their respective ages have consequences – because children and adolescents have different rights and also obligations.
