Deciphering the Code of Life
Life on Earth assumes a large variety of shapes. There is plant life and animal life. Protozoa live alongside human beings, ants alongside fish and elephants, a blowball alongside a cactus.
At first glance, the creatures living on Earth do not seem to have much in common. There are various manifestations of life in terms of characteristics and appearance. Is it possible that this impression is wrong? Is there something that all these creatures have in common in their internal structure? This is hard to believe if you compare a plant with an animal.
Let’s take a look at two more creatures: an ape and a human being – what do these two species have in common?
It is easy to find some differences and some similarities. Monkeys and humans have a similar body structure and similar limbs. In spite of that, we can clearly distinguish an ape from a human being. Where do these similarities and differences come from?
Genetics provides answers to these questions. It is the science of heredity. The term “genetics” stems from the ancient Greek word “genesis” – “origin”.

Copyright
Copyright is subject to constant change to keep up with technological advances. This film enables the viewer to grasp the basic principles of this extremely intricate matter. By way of introduction, the film defines what an author is, what kinds of works there are and how long a work is protected on principle. Then the fundamental rights of an author are cited and it is shown how these are exploited in our times. In the third chapter, the respective rights are illustrated by way of practice-oriented examples of books, photos, music and films. Here, of course, an emphasis is laid on the field of education, taking into account the latest case law within the EU and Austria in particular. A further chapter highlights the problems arising with the Internet and goes into the citation law and pirate copies. All in all, in this way the viewer is made familiar with the most important basic terms and their meanings. Comprehensive worksheets and additional accompanying material invite us to deepen our knowledge of the subject.
