Contrary to previous indications said shes not planning to swap the concert hall for Political Office but she does want to draw attention to the plight of artists if nothing is done we have to find other ways to draw attention to ourselves oh its has many faces were not all violin players to pretend artists are not relevant is to refuse to recognize the capabilities of civilized humans people that just each drink can buy clothes of. Motor is also passionate about another issue racism within the Classical Music industry she wants equal opportunities for musicians regardless of ethnicity. Russian trade i refuse to hide the fact that there is racism in the Classical Music business there certainly is and you have to act against it or when youre a witness of that you have to speak out.

If there were a nobel prize for Environmental Activism surely 17 year old grade to tune back would be the youngest recipients 6 true ordinary young woman from sweden almost single handedly created a Worldwide Movement for Climate Change i am grateful is a new documentary which follows teenage climate activists grates on International Crusade as the subtitle of the film says she is herself a force of nature. My most proper. And i want you to parry. Shes the iconic leader of the Global ClimateStrike Mission to save the planet with emotional speeches that go viral around the world we are in the midst of a mass extinction. Now no one has really kind of addressed the urgency of it in a way which is so profound that talent that she has and kind of talking about this and understanding this issue and reading so much information that she does thats like a huge talent Nathan Grossman was on hands during the very 1st School Strike his camera captured how create his message got more and more attention. First she was very shy but she had this very special way of speaking about the kind of Climate Change which was start shadow way of condensing it down from something that was hard true grass to something very understandable within just a few months what started as a lone protest became a Global Youth Movement fridays for a future the film i am creator traces her progress from a Swedish School go to an internationally known climate activist grossmans camera shows the world from the great us perspective an intimate subjective trait at our level. Away from the limelight greater is nothing like the formidable character of the media see shes much more introverted playful sometimes miss g. B. s and often alone. Suffer from but i have the film asks how great his condition has influenced her mission. Were so interested in understanding how affects her way of thinking about the world and i think its very central. In the film i also think its very central to the way she kind of sees trying to change. Grossman captured spectacular footage of greater and her father sailing to the u. N. Plan. It. Is all wrong. I am going to track the journey of the heroin. As if the future of the primate rested on just one person. Its a study portrayed nevertheless. Despite the pandemic. Back on the streets young people are calling for change more urgently than ever connected to mean bag as. That film is generally in the next weeks coming out around the world. My colleague here to talk about that and other things its received mixed reviews adrian has does make for a very engaging coming of age movie against the background of Global Warming and the fridays futures protest but it is all rather familiar of course the narrative has inspired people around the world to get behind a very important cause and this film is an inspiring summary of the story so far but not much knew instantly the swedish filmmaker whod never made a documentary before initially started filming on a low quality format save on stories he thought he might be able to get a local news channel interested in the story how wrong he was now its on the basis. Theres another movie out. But this is a feature film this is paradise for the story of. Its one of the most expensive swiss movies ever made and it tells the story of eco warrior. And i think we can see some pictures of the real life. From the 27000 documentary the case he was a swiss ethnologist environmentalist to lift with the. Pen and try in the 1000 campaign with them against locking companies against the forestation he became a high profile activist and the late he disappeared under mysterious circumstances hes never been to this day i. Believe the film was 10 years in the making. It was lets take a look at the film we can see when show current who plays Bruno Mansour he prepared for his role by living for a time in the jungle learning the penan language members of the pen and tripe were cast in the movie and it was shot in some of the original locations there are some fantastic pictures of the rainforest and the destruction caused by the logging industry its nice boring story but once again there has been some criticism that its a little kitschy bit too much the white savior mode in the film we see mantha heading the protests the protesters in tribal costumes but in reality we know that as we saw earlier they quite often were dressed in Morton Clothing but nonetheless great adaptation of a very amazing true story.
