AFRICAN BEAUTIES – Hair Styles in Mali and Algeria<br />

by Désirée von Trotha and Michael Wolff CULTURE | ETHNOLOGY | WOMEN | FASHION<br />

Hairstyle in Mali (Africa) is a visual explosion of fantasy, creativity<br />

and skilled craft and is firmly rooted in African tradition and<br />

culture. We will tell the story of hair culture in Africa with the<br />

help of four people: Adjaratou belongs to the young generation<br />

and is dreaming of winning a beauty contest and eventually<br />

becomes Miss Yayorouba. Rose is a house maid and sometimes<br />

she works as a model for Malick Sidibe a world famous photographer.<br />

We will visit the barber shop of Keltoum Sennhauser<br />

and we will witness the secret marriage of Madina a Tuareg women in Algeria. These stories focus on<br />

hair styling and the significance it has for the personal lives of the people we are going to portray.<br />

“You have no chance, but use it!”<br />

That’s roughly how the power structures in East-Berlin in<br />

December 1989 could be described. On one side the apparatus<br />

of the state, which desperately clung to power.<br />

On the other side a heap of fragmented opposition groups,<br />

from the Neues Forum to Demokratischer Aufbruch – estimates<br />

assume there were 600 activists at the time – and a population<br />

who were only just beginning to see themselves as a people.<br />

Representatives of both sides faced each other at the Round Table. Previously unpublished material in<br />

this film shows how they struggled for every inch of power, every word. After all, the subject matter<br />

was nothing less than basic political legitimisation, the state’s power monopoly and the National<br />

Security Agency. to create a chance for a ‘third way’, as the opposition groups hoped, they would<br />

have had to implement their own constitution. Three former member of the opposition groups reflect<br />

on this four month power vacuum as a period of time when utopia was within their grasp.<br />

AFTER THE REVOLUTION<br />

by Doerte Franke and Marc Bauder POLITICS | GERMAN-REUNIFICATION I CONTEMPORARY SOCIETY<br />

There are 27,000 atomic warheads on the planet, most of them armed and ready. Highly radioactive<br />

material is scattered among thousands of companies, research institutes, cellars and barns all over the<br />

world. What’s more, a black market of unknown dimensions has arisen since the early 1990s. Deals<br />

are made with all kinds of radioactive material. This frightening situation is everyday routine for a<br />

growing number of highly specialized physicists, engineers, chemists and geologists.<br />

We accompany three specialists: One young nuclear inspector on his first day of work. The very well<br />

experienced chief of the Security Laboratory who is responsible for the analysis of suspect substances<br />

from all over the world as well as a security agent of the Anti-Terror-Agency ‘Illicit Trafficking’, who<br />

attempts to ferret out thieves and smugglers of atomic material, uncover bomb-makers working in<br />

secret, and locate and secure dangerous substances.<br />
