Hereafter
Pictures and Ideas
A girl paints her idea of heaven. Angels welcome the dead people to paradise. There, near to Jesus, you can live and play. You also meet deceased relatives again.
Gravestones in a churchyard. Only a name and the life data tell about the person who lies buried there. Death makes people realise that their existence, their life, is limited – that a human life is finite.
On some gravestones are religious symbols. Signs expressing the hope that death has not the final say about a human life – that perhaps not everything is over with death.
People have always conceived pictures and ideas of what a life after death might look like.

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
Blogging
The weblog or blog, for short, as a medium is not much older than this century. Blogs came into being in the World Wide Web as ’messages from below’, as web pages from web creators who wanted to share their view of the world with the world. They are short notes, long texts, pictures, videos, which are posted loosely and at random intervals to the world for an undefined public.
