Polizei
Mit ihrer Körpergröße von 1,70 Metern würde Joeys Karriere als Polizistin nichts im Wege stehen. Denn um sich der Spezialausbildung in Kampfsport, Fahr- und Klettertraining sowie einer umfassenden Schießausbildung auf der Polizeischule unterziehen zu dürfen, muss man strenge Vorgaben erfüllen. Neben einer entsprechenden Körperlänge, sind das Gewicht sowie sportliche Fähigkeiten entscheidend. Wer die Aufnahmeprüfung übersteht – in Deutschland sind das jährlich ca. 1.500 Männer und Frauen – durchläuft eine drei Jahre lang harte Schule mit einem einzigen Ziel vor Augen: die grüne Uniform! Doch neuerdings geht der Trend zu blau. Hamburg macht es vor und schickt seine Gesetzeshüter statt in waldgrün in enzianblau auf den Kiez. Doch die Hansestadt ist auch in einer anderen Disziplin ganz weit vorne: Im Verteilen von „Knöllchen“. Ob Falschparken, Temposünden oder Ruhestörungen, den Hamburger Polizisten entgeht fast nichts. Aber was kostet es, wenn man am Steuer zu viel Promille im Blut hat, einen Beamten beleidigt oder bei rot über die Ampel geht? Die Antwort darauf findet man im so genannten Bußgeldkatalog. Muss man diesen zu häufig konsultieren oder macht man sich anderer Vergehen schuldig, droht dem Delinquenten irgendwann der Gang ins Gericht.

Postal Service
The postal service as an organisation for the delivery of news and retail goods through letters, postcards, parcels and packages is considered a part of the pupils‘ life experience and thus dealt with at primary school. This film is meant to illustrate this important procedural part of the children‘s lives and to make it intelligible to them. It deals with the writing, addressing, stamping and sending of a letter, with the importance of stamps, with the letter box and its emptying and the journey of a letter or a package from the sender to the addressee. Both as an introduction to the topic and as a tool in the hands of the pupils when working individually or preparing projects, the DVD and the didactically arranged accompanying material are perfectly suited for the classroom. A short excursus on the history of the stamp and a glance behind the scenes of a letter centre as well as a sorting centre, which usually cannot be visited, complete this informative DVD on the postal service.

Prayer
The prayer, a fundamental religious act, which may be formulated in the form of a request, a thanksgiving or as a dialogue. Whether in Islam, Christianity, Buddhism, Hinduism or Judaism – in all five world religions, the prayer is a communion with their God or a Higher Power. Thanking God, asking him for something, recapitulating the day, finding peace – all that can be contained in a prayer. We pray because we are looking for answers, consolation and strength and because in times of stress we seek peace and reflection. Some people also pray out of tradition or out of a sense of duty to their God. Some may also wish to have their prayers answered. There are studies investigating whether what we ask for in prayer actually comes true. The results, however, are not unequivocal. But to the one who prays this is no reason to stop. For the benefit of prayer cannot be measured by studies. For many the happiness of praying consists less in having their requests answered than in their contact with God. Together with the extensive accompanying material the DVD is perfectly suited for use in the classroom. Target group: primary school, special needs school, secondary school
