International Women’s Day with DEMO in Berlin

The Demo, that started at Oranienplatz and ended at Kottbuser Tor, was a call on women, especially working class women (with and without papers), to fight against the capitalist patriarchy and to decide for themselves in all areas of life.Resistance starts when we women are in solidarity with each other, defend themselves and fight for freedom on the basis of justice.

The women* in Rojava are a good example of women* who fight against colonialist and fascist state forces. The kurdish women in the north of Kurdistan (Bakur), are fighting for autonomy and since months they are resisting  the military superiority of armed forces and mercenary soldiers.

Demo against killing animals for Fur, Saturday, 5th of March

Animals United created a scene crime in Steglitz, Berlin as a demo against killing animals for fur.
I found out new things about this...

Did you know that for one Fur Coat are killed up to 20 foxes?
50% of the Fur comes from China, around 20 million dogs and cats are killed there yearly for the Fur Industry.

Berlinale 66, on February 16

“In vain have I struggled. It will not do. My feelings will not be repressed. You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you.”  These were the words that kept coming into my mind this day. Among my first movies seen with Colin Firth was PRIDE AND PREJUDICE, after the novel of Jane Austen. And these words were said by the character Darcy, played by Colin Firth to Elisabeth. 
However, I look forward to watch "Genius" the movie, which had the premiere today at Berlinale.   

Director Michael Grandage, actors Colin Firth, Jude Law, Guy Pearce, Laura Linney, writer A. Scott Berg, screenplay John Loganand attended today  the 'Genius' photo call and press conference during the 66th Berlinale International Film Festival Berlin.
