the germans, now, i can hear you all whispering, what germans? there are very few and one has a speaking role and that would be one with the bad haircut. steam boat willy. he's showing he's down with american culture by calling himself steam boat willy. i'm kim kardashian, but he called himself steam boat willy and much to their sorrow later on. but i'm not talking about individual personalities and that's probably unavoidable, but i think the movie, for example, does do a fantastic job of depicting the incredible fire power of the german ng-42 and the general purpose german machine gun just dominated the battlefield situation it was in. hitler's buzz saw the germans called it and later allies came to refer to it by the same way it's an incredible reliability and ring of fire and it was a wonder weapon of the day and that scene haunts me and blasted away with the mg-42 and you see the barrel smoking and the germans all trying to surrender and the americans are not quite sure that's exactly how they want to proceed whether to accept the surrender

commission so in spite this being a german french treaty. took center stage with these european officials saying how important it was that the french and the germans get along how important was for europe and donald tusk of course saying that the simply franco german french to conquer place europe finding close a corporation in the future so i think this is also point that he's trying to push across that he's a testing time for the e.u. because as we see this renewal of the vows here between france and germany we see all different groupings in europe tarrying watch donald tusk would like to see which is more solidarity we have to visit proud states and we also have the scandinavians having more liberal ideas about market economy and we see a new potential axis between poland and it's really even questioning that that issue of solidarity that is so at the heart of this treaty but also particular on that european issue of migration and so on and the background music and of course. the background music is great that you have to be right about t

germans used to be proud of their cars but that was before german auto makers became in broiled in the diesel emission scandal. these vehicles at the scrap yard in hamburg aren't that old and they're still in good condition. but their owners no longer trust diesel technology how did it come to this. millions of germans rely on their cars to get to work for example. diesel vehicles have been particularly popular among people like alexander its image from stuttgart who have to drive a lot. he works as a security guard in a hospital at the other end of town and he would be lost without his car especially when he's on night shift. the vehicle he thought was advertised for years as being particularly economical and green a promise that persuaded him to part with his money a purchase that he made in good faith. that's lovers always like him felix the clincher for me was being able to drive so far on one tank of fuel and vironment really friendly and with good fuel economy that was my thinking. since january most older diesel cars like his have been banished from the streets of stuttgart for

the german cinema before us was was extremely conventional mellow drama. bad acting bad everything you know. i'm going to be. oh my god. i mean in the worst way could eventual formula movies and and we wanted to show you know normal street what people were like have actors who acted in a natural way in the news. because it doesn't suit you know movie considered but. now. you tried to reflect what was going on around you when you made a film like the last owner of cattle you know which was a very political it was happening at a time in the seventy's in germany where you had this wave of leftwing terrorism and on the other side incredible repression from the state and you made this film about a woman who has one night of stand with accused terrorist and then is attacked for it by the right wing press and also the police. this witchhunt that some of the sixty eight students you know. went to violent means of protesting and i would say they were not stopped in time by us the others around you know there was even a certain sympathy for the devil there you know

german-american irish-american. certainly we see a lot of identity politics and with the last presidential election. the question over immigration what does it mean to be a good or real american? don't forget at the time of the war the highest proportion meant ever first of second born americans it's incredible one third of americans are either born overseas or parent were. in 1924 we slammed the gates shut and said we don't want anyone else coming into this country if you're not from western europe basically said we don't want you here if you are not from norway so we slammed the gates shut that held through 1965. that is incredible now we are overdue for another immigration reform. everybody knows that here. also fear of the other. at the time there is always this need to have that domestic enemy you need to fear. we had the fear of anarchist now those of us who grew up and had a different meaning but back then those who are trying to use violence over the government and also mitchell palmer and the attorney gener

i was shaken and i thought this is a german house this is a german dog and everything that i saw seemed to be labeled by me. despite her concerns she decided to start a dialogue with the germans it was a. highly controversial decision in israel at that time. and when later on my husband and i were back here and ready to talk to germans they have tacked us and said they wanted to make soap out of you and you talk to them how dare you but we did it and i still believe that it's the right thing to do you know. young volunteers like to benefit from her decision to this day it cuts off to them the thing that i am one of the last who are able to do this my niece for example won't be able to sit down with a woman who was born in one thousand nine hundred twenty one and talk to her about her history and her time five years this kind of work allows me to do what i need to do to act as a bridge to talk with young people about israel politics or whatever is required and that is important to me while i'm still here and can still talk about it. so. both agree that this very personal exchange between
