visit of Bulgarian students in Romania: Romania's image in the German television



THE ART OF ROMANIA IN GERMAN TELEVISION


Tuesday, 19 April and the second day of the school project we had on the image of Romania in the German-speaking television. Only from a movie can be very difficult to make an opinion about a country. Nevertheless, various aspects of life objectively shown by some TV channels. The basis of my report is based on the 2 movies about Romania, which were shown on German-language channels.

First, we have seen a film about the Germans in Romania. It was produced in 1974 and last year in the ZDF broadcast "30 years ago" is sent.
The Germans in Romania were and are a significant minority, but after the turn of 1989 reduced the number of these, as many emigrated to Germany. In the movie "Sweet Home Transylvania, for whom?" The Saxons were presented from Bistriz, Neudorf, Brasov, Sibiu Heltau and, of course. These dealt with Agriculture and livestock but also through cultural activities. They brought the culture of the West to Transylvania and have contributed to the development of this area. At the same time they remained of their culture, the manners, customs and religion are true and therefore a living history of Transylvania. Many wanted by the Saxons in Romania, but to be exiled to Germany. But that was only a dream until 1989. They called Germany "Up there in the kingdom" but in spite of the communist regime that community lived in peace with the Romanians and Hungarians, trying to maintain their identity as a nation.

In the second film the story of two street children from Romania is said and the reality of the early years is shown after the revolution. A 17-year-old boy and a 15-year-old girl to have a child and try to live a good life and to create a future for their children without difficulty. Despite her hard life at the Bucharest train station, they lose hope and not found in other settings. Life is presented objectively and in this case.
