Colours
Mixing, Effect, Symbolism
Colour is something ordinary.
But colours determine nature and our life fundamentally.
In the animal and plant kingdoms the colourful diversity of nature is not a whim but mostly serves a purpose.
Striking colours are often designed to transmit specific signals, either courting or attractant signals, in the animal kingdom and with flowering plants.
Colours play an important role also as an aposematic deterrent or as a camouflage from enemies.
In nature, colour is often an important and frequently vital factor.
Humans have always used colours as a decorative element and for the transmission of information.
But where do things in life get their colours from?
What actually is colour?

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.
