This year, it was amazing to see how certain characters Voice repeated: A presenter takes your thoughts to a particular setting. The filmmakers don’t know what is required of him as a reaction and look helpless, then the presenter: “So the question of aesthetic responsibility.” to formulate
questions as questions is a specialty of the city of Duisburg, is rhetoric. In it is likely to be due to, among other things, but the Problem is that this kind of speaking with the “Proliferation” (Ruzicka) In individual circles of friends, establish relationships and seminars, it has spread from the city of Duisburg, Dell place, the “industry” has ignored over the years, the right-wing populist elite criticism can be dissimilar, always bräsiger.
