Im Laufe eines einzigen Tages folgen wir der Sonne von den höchsten Bergen bis hinunter zu den entlegensten Inseln, von exotischen Regenwäldern bis hinein in den Großstadtdschungel. In UNSERE ERDE 2 ist man ganz nah dran an unvergesslichen tierischen Hauptdarstellern. Zum Beispiel an einem Pinguin, der jeden Tag heldenhaft einen lebensgefährlichen Weg zurücklegt, um seine Familie mit Nahrung zu versorgen. An einer Familie von Pottwalen, die es liebt, vertikal treibend zu dösen oder an einem Faultier, das der Liebe hinterherjagt. Mit Humor, Intimität, großen Gefühlen und einem umwerfenden Gespür für prächtige und brillante Kinobilder erzählt dieses bezaubernde Leinwandabenteuer für die ganze Familie auf spektakuläre Weise, wie jeder einzelne Tag mit noch nie gesehenen Dramen und Wundern praller gefüllt ist, als man es sich je hätte vorstellen können. PRESSENOTIZ Freuen Sie sich auf ein Naturerlebnis der Superlative! 2007 brachte BBC Earth Films EARTH („Unsere Erde“) auf die große Leinwand, der in Deutschland 3,7 Millionen Kinozuschauer begeisterte. Jetzt lässt das britische Studio die lange erwartete Fortsetzung folgen – mit spektakulären Bildern, wie man sie noch nicht gesehen hat! UNSERE ERDE 2 ist eine Ko-Produktion von BBC Earth Films und SMG Pictures. In Zusammenarbeit mit den weltweit herausragenden Naturfilmemachern der BBC führten Peter Webber („Das Mädchen mit dem Perlenohrring“) und Richard Dale Regie. Das Drehbuch stammt von Frank Cottrell-Boyce und die Musik von Alex Heffes („Der letzte König von Schottland“). Erzählt wird UNSERE ERDE 2 von Günther Jauch. 6 LANGINHALT UNSERE ERDE 2 ist ein filmischer Meilenstein auf dem Gebiet der Wildtier- Dokumentation. Auf dramatische Weise verdeutlicht der Film, welch entscheidende Rolle die Sonne bei der Mitgestaltung und Prägung der Schicksale aller Lebensformen auf der Erde, einschließlich dem unseren, spielt. UNSERE ERDE 2 wirft einen spektakulären Blick auf den Rhythmus von Tag und Nacht – und darauf, wie die Verbindung zur Sonne alle Spezies miteinander verbindet. Und alles beginnt mit dem Sonnenaufgang. Frühmorgens Die Welt erwacht. Im Grasland von Kenia ist ein Serval, der normalerweise nachts jagt, immer noch hellwach und hält Ausschau nach Beute. Dank neuer Kameratechnologien mit verbesserter Bildstabilisierung können wir jetzt ein Raubtier von einer Grasperspektive aus in Aktion sehen und können die Fähigkeiten des Servals, Witterung aufzunehmen und der Beute zu folgen, von einem aufregend neuen Blickwinkel aus beobachten. So erleben wir hautnah, was es bedeutet, Jäger und Beutetier zu sein. Weit davon entfernt im Südpazifik führt uns die Reise zu den kargen, vulkanischen Galapagosinseln, wo das Leben Bedingungen ausgesetzt ist, die zu den härtesten auf der Erde gehören. Hier beobachten wir Meerechsen, Reptilien, die auf Sonnenenergie angewiesen sind, wie sie auf der Leinwand noch nie zu sehen waren. Hier schlüpft der Nachwuchs der Echsen vor versteckten Kameras aus. Als die Meerechsen von 20 Galapagos-Racern, einer heimischen Natternart, attackiert werden, kommt es zu einer nervenaufreibenden Treibjagd, die es an Spannung mit jedem Klassiker von Steven Spielberg aufnehmen kann. Vormittags Weiter steigt die Sonne, und überall auf der Erde sind die Auswirkungen dieses täglichen Prozesses spürbar. Inmitten einer verblüffenden Waldlandschaft, einem Biotop-ähnlichen Lebensraum voller Schönheit, Gefahren und Überraschungen, frisst ein Großer Panda mit Heißhunger Bambus. Das gibt dem Nachwuchs des Pandaweibchens, der ausschließlich Muttermilch zu sich nimmt, Zeit, die Umgebung zu erforschen. Tausende Kilometer entfernt sucht ein junges Zebrafohlen in Botswana nach frischem Gras. Dem Tier wird alles abverlangt, als es, beobachtet von der verzweifelten, hilflosen Mutter, versucht, das strömende Wasser eines Flusses zu durchqueren. Beide Sequenzen zeigen uns auf einem Spektrum von herzzerreißend bis mitreißend ikonische, vertraute Tiere, aber aus einer dramatischen neuen Perspektive. Weiter im Norden, in der Arktis, sucht eine ungewöhnlichere Spezies, die Narwale (Wale mittlerer Größe mit einem riesigen vorstehenden Horn), nach Wegen durch ihr eisiges Königreich, während die Kraft der Sonne beginnt, das Eis zu schmelzen und Durchgänge zu schaffen. Gleichzeitig fangen versteckte, ferngesteuerte Kameras in der kanadischen Provinz Alberta Bilder von einem Braunbären ein, der seinen Rücken urkomisch an einen Baumstamm reibt, um den dicken Winterpelz schneller 7 loszuwerden. Man fühlt praktisch seine Erleichterung mit, wenn es endlich nicht mehr juckt. Mittags Zurück in Afrika hat die Sonne jetzt ihren höchsten Stand erreicht. Das bedeutet, dass selbst die tödlichsten Raubtiere viel zu träge sind, um auf die Jagd zu gehen. Die einzigen Tiere, die sich der Mittagssonne sichtbar aussetzen, sind Giraffen. Vor unseren Augen entfaltet sich, wie in einem Western, ein spannender Showdown, bei dem sich ein alter Bulle und ein junges Männchen gegenüberstehen und sich dann gegenseitig, im Kampf um Reviere und Weibchen, „an den Hals gehen“. Wenn sie den Hals und den Körper des Rivalen mit dem Kopf hämmernd wuchtig bearbeiten, kann es am Ende nur einen Sieger geben. Unter der Meeresoberfläche spielen die hohen Mittagstemperaturen kaum eine Rolle. Eine Familie von Pottwalen, darunter ein einjähriges Kalb, gleitet durchs Wasser. Wenn sich diese majestätischen, graziösen Tiere eine Siesta gönnen und vertikal im Wasser treibend schlafen, tauchen wir mit in dieses wunderschöne, aber selten zu beobachtende Ritual ein. Aber nicht nur die Wale schlafen. Auf einer vor der Küste Panamas liegenden Insel von der Größe des Central Parks macht ein Zwergfaultier ein Nickerchen, bis es von einem Balzruf geweckt wird. So angetörnt, schwimmt das Faultier durch einen Fluss und besteigt einen Baum, um seine neue Liebe zu treffen – wie Romeo, der für Julia über eine Gartenmauer stieg und den Balkon erklomm. In berührender Nahaufnahme werden wir hier Zeuge einer Romanze, die selbst das eisigste Herz schmelzen lässt. Spätnachmittags Knapp 2100 Kilometer östlich der Falklandinseln liegt Zavodovski, eine kleine Insel in der Subantarktis. Hier begibt sich ein Zügelpinguin auf eine Mission der ganz anderen Art. Während die Mutter und ihr Junges hungern, stürzt sich das Männchen in die Wellen, um Fisch zu ihnen zurückzubringen. Doch selbst wenn das Männchen Nahrung ergattert hat, ist es immer noch eine Herkulesaufgabe, an Land 3,2 Kilometer zurückzulegen und die eigene Familie unter 1,5 Millionen Pinguinen wiederzufinden. Diese Sequenz erzählt eine beeindruckende, unvergessliche Geschichte – wer könnte das Bedürfnis nicht nachvollziehen, diejenigen, die man liebt, mit Nahrung zu versorgen. Es ist das erste

  • Future of Public Service Media: Open University Response Summary
    Ofcom – Future of Public Service Media: Open University Response Summary 1. Education is a crucial part of the Public Service Broadcasting (PSB) requirements. Several of the statutory requirements set out in Section 264 of the Communications Act 2003 relate to educational objectives. There are opportunities to strengthen these requirements as part of the new Public Service Media (PSM) offer. 2. The Open University (OU) plays a key role in supporting the delivery of PSB requirements around education through its partnership with the BBC. The partnership co-produces high-quality factual content across several channels and platforms, which is developed in collaboration with academic experts and closely linked to related educational materials hosted by the OU. A key objective of the partnership is to encourage people to embark on learning journeys from the informal, factual content produced with the BBC, through online and printed educational resources which enhance and enrich their broadcast/digital experience, to taking up formal learning opportunites inspired by watching, listening to and engaging with the content produced as part of the partnership. 3. In 2019/20: • A total of 257 hours of content produced via the OU/BBC partnership was broadcast by the BBC. • This resulted in a combined total of 308 million viewing/listening “events” and digital engagement interactions. • The three most popular television programmes broadcast – A Perfect Planet, Springwatch and Hospital (Series 5) all saw viewing figures in excess of 22 million. • There were 765,000 unique visitors to the online educational content related to the OU/BBC partnership hosted on the OU’s free online learning platform, OpenLearn.

  • World on Fire
    Biographical Notes World on Fire Peter Bowker Writer, World on Fire MASTERPIECE fans remember Peter Bowker’s impassioned adaptation of Wuthering Heights from 2009, which captured Emily Brontë’s masterpiece in all its complexity. With World on Fire he has created a plot with even more twists, turns, and memorable characters, centered on the chaotic events at the outset of World War II. Bowker has been an established screenwriter in the U.K since penning scripts for Casualty in the early 1990s. Since then, he has written for many long-running series such as Where the Heart Is and Clocking Off. His original work has included Undercover Heart; Flesh and Blood, for which he won Best Writer at the RTS Awards; Blackpool, which was awarded BANFF Film Festival Best Mini-Series and Global Television Grand Prize; and Occupation, which was awarded Best Drama Serial at the BAFTA Awards, in addition to Best Short-Form Drama at the WGGB Awards and another RTS Best Writer Award. He has since written Eric and Ernie and Marvellous. Both productions have won prestigious awards, including a Best Drama BAFTA for Marvellous, which became the most popular BBC2 single drama of the last 20 years. Most recently he has written an adaptation of John Lanchester’s novel Capital and two series of the acclaimed The A Word. Julia Brown Lois Bennett, World on Fire Driven to escape her cheating lover and dysfunctional family, Julia Brown’s character in World on Fire finds a wartime role that exploits her remarkable singing talent. Luckily, Brown herself is a gifted vocalist and sang much of the soundtrack that accompanies the episodes.

PICTURES ITALIA Durata: 112 minuti www.ilritofilm.it Uscita italiana: 11 marzo 2011 2 “La lotta contro il Diavolo, compito principale di San Michele Arcangelo, è ancora combattuta tutt’oggi, perché il Diavolo è sempre presente e attivo nel mondo.” Papa Giovanni Paolo II “Il Rito” è un thriller soprannaturale che scopre la presenza del Diavolo anche nei luoghi più sacri della terra. Ispirato a storie vere, il film segue le vicende del seminarista Michael Kovak (Colin O’Donoghue), che è inviato a studiare l’esorcismo in Vaticano nonostante i suoi dubbi su questa pratica controversa e, perfino, sulla sua stessa fede. Indossando un profondo scetticismo come corazza, Michael sfida i suoi superiori invitandoli a rivolgersi alla psichiatria, invece che ai demoni, per trattare i posseduti. Solo quando è mandato come apprendista dal poco ortodosso Padre Lucas (Anthony Hopkins) -un leggendario sacerdote che ha eseguito migliaia di esorcismi- la corazza di Michael, finalmente, comincia a cedere. Il seminarista è coinvolto in un caso inquietante che sembra perfino trascendere le capacità di Padre Lucas e inizia a intravedere un fenomeno che la scienza non riesce né a spiegare né a controllare…un male così violento e terrificante che lo costringe a mettere in dubbio tutte le sue precedenti certezze.
