Indian Priests
Missionaries
Is there anything unusual about Father Xavier, a coloured missionary from India, working as a priest in Germany? The film begins with Xavier in his Indian home village where people Christianity is part of people’s everyday lives. Then we see him work as a chaplain in a community in Munich where he is faced with the situation of the Church in Germany: empty rows and mainly senior churchgoers. He learns that foreigners are not always welcomed with open arms. What does “mission” mean today? Has Germany become a place in need of missionary work? If there is a shortage of young priests in Germany, is it possible to simply invite young priests from other cultures, from the churches of Asia, Africa and Latin America to come here? Are they bringing the message they once received from missionaries back to Europe? Does evangelisation now take place the other way round?

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.
