Train to Auschwitz
Journey into the Past
»They had better look out… one day our patience will be at an end and then these impudent and hypocritical Jews will be reduced to silence.« An Italian school class goes on a journey to Auschwitz, the former extermination camp of the Nazis. For weeks they have been preparing for this journey. They go with different expectations. Luca voices some doubts as to whether such a journey to Auschwitz can actually change a person lastingly. The visit will definitely provide food for thought – but people who are uninterested or shallow will probably not be greatly affected by the impressions gathered there.

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.
