Das Geschäft mit Kakao
Von der Bohne bis zum Handel
Die Olmeken, Maya und Azteken sahen in Kakao ein göttliches Geschenk – er galt als Opfergabe, Medizin und Zahlungsmittel. Auch heute wird Kakao als marktwirtschaftliches Produkt an der Börse gehandelt. Der Film zeichnet die Geschichte des Kakaos, beschreibt die Vegetation und Verbreitung der Pflanze, Ernte und die Verarbeitung von der Bohne bis zu Schokolade. Auch beleuchtet er kritische Fragen wie z.B. Kinderarbeit oder Ausbeutung der Kakaobauern bei Anbau und Ernte und zeigt mittels fairtrade-Standards Möglichkeiten zur Verbesserung von Missständen auf. Ebenfalls nachgezeichnet werden Produktionsschritte und Wertschöpfungsketten.

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.
