Michel Foucault

The great myths of mankind have captivated us for thousands of years. Inexplicable phenomena, places shrouded in legend and superhuman heroes puzzle us and fire our imagination. But what if the legends are more than pure fiction? Scholars have been sketching dragons since ancient times, and the belief in their existence extends into modern times. Whether with wings or breathing fire, as creator or destroyer - the dragon is one of the oldest myths of mankind.

Zwei Leben für Europa

Jun 9, 2022

In the chaotic, highly emotional period after the First World War in 1918, the foreign ministers Gustav Stresemann (1878-1929) and Aristide Briand (1862-1932) put all their energies into trying to lead their countries, Germany and France, which were at enmity with each other, into a peaceful future and a united Europe. After their deaths, Europe has to go through a second hell before the plan of these two visionaries succeeds. The cinematic mix of archive footage and re-enactments shows two statesmen, full of facts and emotion, who give each other nothing in difficult negotiations, but at the same time hold on to their shared vision. Even if these two human lives were not enough to reap the fruits of their labor, they sowed the seeds for the next generation. In 1926, Aristide Briand and Gustav Stresemann were awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. It is a sign that the peoples of the world believe in a Europe at peace.
