Coffee
Coffee has become the second most important commodity on the world market after crude oil, and it enjoys tremendous popularity around the globe. Allegedly, it happened by chance that the stimulating effect of the cherry-like fruit was discovered in the Ethiopian province of Kaffa. The deep brown, aromatic drink embarked on a global journey of success. From the middle of the 17th century, it also became widespread in Europe, even though it was a treat that was initially reserved for the prosperous. Today, however, it is a part of everyday life for many people. The DVD starts with the history of the spreading of coffee cultivation and continues to describe in detail the biological characteristics of the coffee shrub. Another chapter outlines the conditions for growth and introduces the most important coffee-producing regions. The long, laborious journey from the harvest of the ripe coffee cherry to the prepared cup is illustrated. The economically weakest link in this chain are the coffee farmers. There are several organisations acting on a worldwide scale that try to realise adequate prices for the coffee farmers and promote incentives for development by means of fair trade.s is described.

Das Ehrenamt
„Ich glaube, engagieren sich nicht Menschen für die Gesellschaft ehrenamtlich, dann würde das System, so wie wir es haben, einfach nicht funktionieren. Von daher glaube ich, ist das Ehrenamt, damit das alles so funktionieren kann, wie es das tut, ein wichtiges Steckenpferd.“, so das Zitat einer jungen ehrenamtlichen Mitarbeiterin bei den Maltesern.

Sozialismus
Der Unterrichtsfilm beleuchtet die Grundlagen des Sozialismus, der als Gesellschaftsmodell auf Gemeineigentum und Gemeinwirtschaft beruht. Er hielt infolge der Industrialisierung als Gegenmodell zum Kapitalismus Einzug. Doch in den Ländern, wo sich der Sozialismus verbreitet hatte, erwies er sich als ökonomisch ineffizient und führte letztlich zur Einschränkung der menschlichen Grundrechte sowie zur Verletzung der Rechtsstaatlichkeit.

Butcher
Food is the basis of human life. Its diversity and quality are decisive for our health and well-being, thus also providing the basis for a good quality of life. It is a positive challenge to take on that kind of responsibility by choosing a career in this sector. A butcher’s job is such a challenge, not only with respect to the handling of the food itself but also with respect to the contact with customers. Butchers don’t just sell their products but also give advice to their customers and, in addition, the contact to business partners and public authorities is of considerable importance. Hence, this job is extremely versatile and never boring. Some on-the-job training in an internship provides the opportunity to get to know this profession better and to find out whether you are suitable for the job and whether you feel comfortable with your choice. It is important that a job opens up good career prospects for young people, thus building a bridge to an economically secure future.

Home
Everyone of us has a home. We primarily associate home with our families, which give us a sense of comfort and security. We have our home town where we were born, but what exactly is home? According to the encyclopaedia, home means all the conditions under which someone grows up. This DVD introduces all aspects of the topic of “home” – in a way easily understandable for children. Folk songs as well as films and novels with a regional background are examined closely. The relation between home and identity is explained. Home can take many forms due to different nationalities with their different languages, customs and traditions. However, despite all our cultural differences and ways of life, when seen from a distance, we all share the same home – our planet earth!
