The Blue Rider
The Dawning of the Modern Era
The Blue Rider – this is the name a group of artists chose for themselves when they joined forces just over 100 years ago to exhibit their works together. Their pictures were extremely colourful and often did not depict objects, humans or animals. Instead, shapes and coloured surfaces dominated their pictures. This abstract method of depiction was completely new in the world of art and attracted a lot of attention. At that time, the press wrote that their first exhibition was a wild parody and a bizarre carnival. The audience was scandalised, ranted, blustered and spat on the paintings. The artists were called shameless bluffers and incurably insane. But critics and the audience could not have been more wrong since this exhibition was to become world-famous and the artists changed art forever.

Peer Mediation
Lena and Max attend the 7th form. Max is new in class. During a break, Max notices that Lena and her friend are laughing at him again. Max loses his temper! He slaps Lena in the face. That hurts and Lena runs back into the classroom with a red cheek. The growing conflict between the two has escalated. Just like Lena and Max, every day pupils all over Germany have rows with each other. At the Heinrich Hertz Gymnasium in Thuringia, pupils have been trained as mediators for years. At set hours, they are in a room made available by the school specifically for mediation purposes. The film describes the growing conflict between Max and Lena and shows a mediation using their example. In doing so, the terms “conflict” and “peer mediation” are explained in a non-technical way. The aims of peer mediation and its progress in five steps as well as the mediators’ tasks are illustrated. The art of asking questions and “mirroring”, which the mediators must know, is described and explained. Together with the comprehensive accompanying material, the DVD is a suitable medium to introduce peer mediation at your school, too.
Pupils Practise Inclusion
When people come together, no matter under what concomitant circumstances – ultimately, it is about how these people meet and how openly they interact with one another.
