Camp für Brandopfer
Selbstbewusstsein für das neue Leben
Wie gehen Menschen damit um, wenn sie, beispielsweise durch einen schweren Unfall, große und sichtbare Narben im Gesicht und am Körper davongetragen haben? Was tun, wenn das alte Leben schlagartig vorbei ist? Wenn viele Menschen gar nichts mehr mit einem zu tun haben wollen?
Die Mädchen in Lesia Cartellis Camp „Angel Faces“ haben genau das erlebt. Sie alle sind in jungen Jahren Opfer schwerster Verbrennungen geworden und müssen fortan mit zahlreichen Entstellungen in Gesicht und Körper leben. Sie haben erfahren, wie es ist, von der Gesell-schaft ausgeschlossen zu sein. Sie fühlen sich hässlich und ungeliebt, sind darum häufig verbittert, sehen keine Zukunft für sich.
Der Film begleitet die Mädchen auf ihrem Weg zu neuem Selbstbewusstsein. Er geht auf die Schicksale der Mädchen ein und zeigt, mit welchen Mitteln ihnen im Laufe ihrer Therapie geholfen wird. Am Ende blicken sie wieder hoffnungsvoll in die Zukunft. Dazu können auch wir Mitmenschen beitragen, indem wir die Mädchen so akzeptieren, wie sie sind.
Gemeinsam mit dem umfangreichen Unterrichtsmaterial (klassische und interaktive Arbeitsblätter, Testaufgaben, Lehrtexte etc.) ist der Film sehr gut für den Einsatz im Unterricht geeignet.

The Daily Newspaper
Every day, there is a surge of news reaching us via different news channels. In spite of TV and Internet, the daily paper still is one of the most important main sources of news. But how is a newspaper created? The film shows the production of a paper in the course of one day. Starting with the editorial meeting in the morning, in which the topics and deadlines are determined, the film accompanies a journalist during her research work. You can see how a journalistic interview is conducted and what the photographer must consider when taking a press photo. Back in the editorial office, the editor’s work is illustrated, which includes the page layout and the writing of an online article in today’s time. Impressive pictures from the printing centre depict the process from the digital page to the finished newspaper. Together with the comprehensive accompanying material, the DVD is perfectly suited for use at school
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.
Internet Addiction
The film consists of two parts. The first part is the 15-minute short film “In the Net”. It describes the problem of excessive Internet use in a humorous way, in particular the risk of losing touch with reality when chatting. The second part illustrates with three real persons how Internet addiction can develop and the problems encountered by those who are afflicted. The authentic statements are commented by an experienced therapist. For many pupils, the issues addressed here are related to their everyday lives. What is a “sensible” use of the Internet, where does pathological addiction start? In contrast to addiction to alcohol, nicotine or drugs, the public seems to be largely ignorant of the problem of this addiction, which is not related to any substance abuse. The film provides material for discussion in the classroom (crossdisciplinary) and can be used as a basis for the formulation of prevention strategies.
