susie_wolff: Grateful every day to be by your side, through rain or shine. Happy Birthday Toto. Here’s to another year of adventures, laughter and endless love ❤️💫

For that "not from the US" asks: 1, 5, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 18, 29? ☺

favourite place in your country?

The Brühl Terrace in Dresden, or the Semper opera. But the terrace probably.

5. favourite song in your native language?

"Verleih' uns Frieden" by Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy?

"Freiheit" by Westernhagen (but absolutely ONLY the 1989 live version), "Westerland" by Die Ärzte, "Amadeus" by Falco, each for entirely different reasons.

10. most enjoyable swear word in your native language?

Already answered :)

11. favourite native writer/poet?

Erich Kästner (1, 2, 3, 4, 5), but also Rilke (1, 2) (he was Austrian actually but he was a native speaker of German so we’ll let that count, right?). They're opposite ends of a spectrum but I adore them both.

12. what do you think about English translations of your favourite native prose/poem?

The Rilke translations are often delightful! Even though they read quite differently, I usually like them a lot. (Though I've yet to find ANY translation for the "Requiem für Wolf Graf von Kalckreuth", which is a crime!). Kästner hasn't been translated much outside of his childrens' books, sadly - but honestly, it's *hard* to get Kästner right, he's very suited to how specific you can get with German (I’ve tried). What I've seen from the translation of Christa Wolff's Kassandra was pretty neat as well! Like with Rilke, it reads like a slightly different book, but an equally good one! Overall we're pretty lucky, a lot of our culture gets translated still, though mostly the older stuff, which has its merits but isn't everyone's cup of tea (not every day is a Goethe or Schiller day, you know).

13. does your country (or family) have any specific superstitions or traditions that might seem strange to outsiders?

Yeah, loads of small things! There's the one thing where you can *shock* most Germans by wishing them a happy birthday before their birthday, it's dreadfully ill luck and it freaks me out when someone does it! Also the hectically ripping down any and all Christmas decoration by January 6th - though my parents appear to have lapsed a little in that regard, they left the tree up until mid January this year. Scandalous.

14. do you enjoy your country’s cinema and/or TV?

Very rarely, except for the Heute show, which is political satire kind of like the Late Show or Seth Meyers if that helps? (This is a very stereotypical German answer btw, I've never met a German my age who was *really* into German tv, though one of my best friends is decidedly too into a soap about mountain rescuers, and there's the Tatort, which is a whole thing.)

16. which stereotype about your country you hate the most and which one you somewhat agree with?

already answered :)

18. do you speak with a dialect of your native language?

Well, my family does (least popular dialect in Germany, yay! I kind of love it, though it *is* markedly unsexy. Then again, I feel that way about most German dialects - charming, but not... alluring. At all). I've been raised in a different part of the country though, so my only real contact to the dialect was my parents, whose dialect was toned down pretty quickly - East Germans doing their best to blend. So I do, kind of, but it's very imperfect, and I only slip into it naturally when I'm surrounded by other speakers (or elderly people who speak another dialect, strangely enough? Makes for confusing social situations when you try to speak to an elderly Frisian patient in a hospital in a broad Leipzig drawl, I think he was having flashbacks to the early 90s and it was confusing for both of us, lol. But I think they appreciated it anyway - they tend to take it as talking down when you reply to dialect with polished Hochdeutsch.)

29. does your region/city have a beef with another place in your country?

Already answered, but I've lived in more places than one. The Dresden football club (barf) has an ongoing beef with Leipzig. I condemn the whole thing wholeheartedly, the goings on in that club are fucking barbaric and they're bringing down the neighbourhood.

Hi, I'm not from the US! ask meme

Hey there!

I am quite new here and I was wondering how you got into this fandom. Specially the carlandofandom :)

Also, when did you start writing? I saw your posts the other day about not being able to write all of it, so it somehow triggered me to write some stuff myself (some requests were just too cute).

Havent been properly writing for ages though and I am not quite sure if anybody wants to read my stuff...any advice? Im so indecisive...

Thanks for all your great stories and have nice day :)

Hey you, anonym and especially – welcome to the fandom! 🤗❤️

Oh my God, believe me – you actually don’t want to know how I got to this fandom, it’s such a long story.. You better grab yourself some Coke and popcorn, because this will be a longer one.. 🥤🍿

But alright, everything has begun with that the TWD (The Walking Dead) fandom has started to annoy/boring me, also because the show has become pretty bad and I wanted to leave the sinking ship before it will be too late. That must have been around autumn/winter 2018. During the winter months I really, really love to watch ski jumping, also because it’s pretty popular in my country (Austria). I was already a fan of it since many, many years, but I only became a real fan at that time. I always say I love this sport so much, because those jumps are always so “quickly over” – meaning that I don’t have to wait for too long to find out the results. Yeah, the competition itself isn't that short, but the individual jumps of each athlete are. That’s why I actually “hate” F1 so much, because I have to wait freaking two hours of pure stress, several mental breakdowns and heart attacks later to finally find out who will win, and also because so much can happen during a race, while those ski jumpers are practicing individual – does that make any sense!? However, so I got pretty deep into the ski jumping fandom over that time, especially also here on Tumblr, where I have met a pretty nice girl back then, who had been as thrilled about the fandom as me. But you know, during the summer there aren’t any competitions, so it had been pretty boring in the ski jumping fandom and then suddenly that girl came up with F1.

The first thing I have thought was ‘NO WAY! NEVER EVER!’ – you have to know, I have really hated F1 with a passion before August 2019. I was always making fun of my boyfriend watching those cars driving in circles for two hours. I just couldn’t understand it how someone can watch that voluntary (I sometimes still can’t..😅) and I really, really hated it with everything I had. My boyfriend even was at the Austrian GP in 2019 and back then my biggest nightmare would have been if he would have forced me to come with him (he got there with his father in the end – today I would give everything to get there!)

I remember, we have been on vacation during the beginning of August 2019. We were in a theme park, when my boyfriend said at one point that he will get over to that bench in the shadow under the tree now and watch the qualifying. I have really thought he was kidding me, because I couldn’t understand how the hell someone would watch something so stupid like F1, while being in a freaking theme park. Well, today I would be the one sitting there on the bench, while my boyfriend would probably urge me to please finally stand up so we could go on 😅

That was at the beginning of August 2019 – so I must have slowly but sure fallen for the fandom around 15th of August. And if you believe me or not, but I have neither fallen for Lando nor for Carlos at the first place. It was actually Max, also because he was one of the less drivers I have known next to Lewis, Sebastian, Valtteri (I always had to think about Harry Potter because of Bottas..😂) and probably Nico. But I have actually began to “stalk” when I have got to know about that Max has a little sister and I have found those sweet pics of him with her together (Do you know which pics I mean? You should really check them out – they are so cute). And somehow Lando came into the play as well and so my first story for this fandom resulted. Back then I have really, really thought it would be the first and also last story I will ever publish for this fandom. Well, that didn’t aged well..😅 Somehow my interest grew and grew with every more day stalking the internet for content and by the time of the first race after the summer break, I was already a fan. Spa 2019 has been the first F1 race I have ever watched from the start till the end and I have to say that this weekend has broken me (literally). Of course, because of Anthoine, but also because this time of the year is since 2017 never easy for me and on that weekend also Carlando finally came into the play. Check out this post from a few weeks ago – Carlos’ birthday on Sunday and that Lando has supposedly hugged Carlos after his DNF has really, really touched my heart and since that day these two boys own my heart and I remember, that the next day after the race I have got up at five in the morning to write “Tomorrow will be kinder” – because writing is sometimes my only way to deal with things, so I just had to write my thoughts/feelings down and it was the beginning of something beautiful actually.

But there is one more little story I have to tell you about my F1 past – this story right here is actually one of @hurtsprincess favourite ones. Because back in 2015, when F1 was finally back in Austria again, I was there by the race as probably the biggest F1-hater under all of them. Half of our town and so also most of our friends has got there, so it was kind of peer pressure, why I have finally joined them as well. We had to stand up really, really early – actually it was still in the middle of the night (I think it was three in the morning or so) and got to Spielberg with the bus. It was one of the hottest day of the year back then and after watching “the race of generations” with Niki Lauda, Gerhard Berger and some others and then following also the F3 and F2 races (Me, back in 2015: What do you mean there are races before the actual race? What the hell is F3 and F2?) and because we were so damn tired after standing up so early, most of us, including myself, were sleeping in the meadow during the F1 race. So I have missed over half of the race and I really can’t even remember anymore who has won 😅 But it had still been a funny day for my as a F1-hater, but believe me - if I should ever get to a GP again, this won’t ever happen to me again! 😅 I promise! 🤞🏼

Wow, this has turned out longer than you have actually wanted it, right anonym?! 

Your first question about how I have got into the Carlando fandom is probably answered now and also half of your second question. But I have actually started writing fanfictions back in autumn 2016 for the TWD fandom. I have written overall 16 stories for that fandom and 4 stories in German for the ski jumping fandom, but as much as I have already loved to write fanfictions back then, it only really became my passion and biggest hobby with Carlando. I just can’t stop writing about them, also because they make me so happy and for me so easy with those dorks just being them 😊

Yeah, I’m still very sorry about that I just can’t write stories to all of these great requests, even tho I would really, really like to do - but if you have got inspired by one of these, you should give it a try!

But if you are really that indecisive and shy, you could use the anonymity of the internet for your favor (in this case this posibilty is a good thing - as long as you use your anonymity not for spreading hate/attacking/bullying someone) You know what I mean? I actually did/do that as well. Only three people here on Tumblr know who I really am. Some of you may know from where I am (because I don’t make a secret out of it) and some here even know my name, but that’s it. I don’t share any more personal things about my identity, because I also prefer to stay anonymous here, especially because only my boyfriend, my best friend and my mother know about that I’m writing fanfictions. All those other people I call “friends” don’t know about it or me having this account here and I also don’t want them to know, because they simply wouldn’t understand it.

What I’m trying to say here - if it makes you feel better and also more secure, you could upload your story on AO3 without telling anyone it’s you. Or if you don’t want to post it on AO3 and you also don’t want to post it on your Tumblr account, I offer you to send me your story anonymous. I would post it in your “name” aka anonym, saying that this story isn't mine and you could watch/read the reactions.

You don’t have to lose anything, anonym 😉 I would really, really like to read your story, no matter if you will decide to publish it with your name or anonymous. Because there won’t ever be enough writers out there, blessing us with their great stories. Also because I am as much a passionate reader than a writer. And I’m also pretty sure about that you are talented and also about that your story would be more than just worth reading it 😊

Thank you so much for your message, anonym and I’m sorry my answer turned out to be so long 😅 but I really hope my words have helped you in some way, because I’m pretty sure about that you actually don’t have to have a reason to be that shy and indecisive 😉 Just give it a try, as long as it makes you happy 🤗❤️

As a way to guarantee a successful Christmas party here are a few things you should consider when deciding where to hold your Christmas party. Consider attempting to make your French party venue seem like a standard French cafe, when you have seen the film Amelie then you are going to know what I mean. Or worse, you might not have any guests visit your party in the slightest. Guests receive a private party space, catering and their very own high-energy Party host who has the job of creating sure everyone has a magic experience.

Among the helpful baby things which you are able to use for your decorations are baby tubs. A banquet hall in a hotel is extremely different from golf training course, which is quite different from a mansion. Utilizing a fraction of what it would cost to lease a swanky party venue, you are able to buy whatever you will need to turn your back yard or living room into the ideal spot for a wonderful party. When you've got an illustrated floor plan of a venue, it makes it less difficult for you to visualize about setting this up. Though it is situated in a somewhat down-at-heel portion of the city, it's a well run venue and has been going for at least a decade now. Restaurant spaces need to be booked in advance if such parties must be hosted there.

All prime numbers!

Oh wow thank you so much. That’s...a lot, haha. This is gonna take some time & space so find more under the ‘Read more’ :) (Also, I kinda am sad that I have to do math now bc I am so bad at it haha)

2: Dog breedBeagles & Bernese Mountain Dog & Huskies! But especially Beagles. Please don’t ask me why, I just love them, they are so cute. But overall, I am a person that loves all dogs. Every single one of them.

3: ComedianRight now it’s Trevor Noah but one of my all-time favourites is Ellen Degeneres because she’s just so funny in her own way. I also have an Austrian fave which is Michael Niavarani. He is so fucking funny, I die laughing every single time I watch one of his productions, haha.

5: ColorBurgundy & Woodgreen

7: PerfumeI normally don’t wear perfume, I just way some lemon & lime body spriz or some of the Victoria’s Secret body sprizzes. I like light, fruity smells that don’t last too long and aren’t too heavy.

11: FoodBroccoli & Cheese! I love Broccoli, I love cheese and if you pack some pasta in there I will forever love you.

13: Concert attended Already answered

17: MagazineI don’t read a lot of magazines, tbh. I used to read a lot of ‘girly’ magazines but I mostly lost interest in them now.

19: Sport to watchDancing & Hockey! Mostly hockey now though.

23: WebsiteAhahaha, I am on it right now. (It’s Tumblr. There is nothing else but Tumblr. It’s sad.)

29: SingerBeyoncé! Always!

31: ActorUhm...good question. I don’t think I have a favourite actor, tbh. There’s no name that immediately comes to my mind. Wow.

37: CandySour Stripes & Shark Candies (both only available in Austria as far as I know though, how sad)

41: Have you pre-named your childrenYou know, I once wanted to name my first daugther Sweden Finija and that was...well...a very creative choice. I am wiser now and I think it’s a desicion one should talk through with their partner. There are names that I like but I haven’t chosen any yet.

43: Do you have a 5 year planWell, I had one and had to put it down, so nope. Not anymore. The only goal I have right now is to try my best to make my current relationship work so I can still gush about Chris in 5 years. I want to be happy in 5 years, that’s all. 

47: Who’s your best friendIt’s a tie between Sophie & Fabienne. I love them both so much, they know me so well and we’ve been friends for all out lives. I couldn’t chose just one.

53: How do you like your steak cookedI don’t eat red meat ;) 

59: The movie I cried at wasOh fuck, let me tell you, I don’t think I have ever cried so hard at a movie than when I did watching “LION” a few weeks ago. I also cried watching “The Help”, oh how I shed tears at that one. 

61: My CarIs my baby. It’s a Skoda Fabia & I love it. 

67: The person that makes me cry the most isI rarely keep people in my life that make me cry a lot, so there isn’t anyone. I cry a lot around Chris but that’s mostly bc I work myself up about things that don’t matter (like me having my period when we meet) and then he asks me what’s wrong and I just start bawling because I think I am doing something horrible. I mostly laugh about it afterwards because he always makes me see that these things don’t matter, that I worry about things that are not important for our relationship. Like, he doesn’t care if we have sex or not as long as I am there and he doesn’t care if I have my period, as long as I am feeling okay and well. 

71: Next SummerI will mostly work, sadly but I have a week off and we are planning a camping trip which I am really excited for :D

73: TomorrowI will go to work for the first time this week & I am a bit nervous about it. We have a birthday coming up tomorrow though, so that’s gonna make things easier :) 

79: First time you had a crushKindergarden ;) 

83: The most difficult thing to do isTalk to people in real life about my problems.

89: Who makes you laugh the mostMy friends & my boyfriend

97: Swam in a poolLast year, at some point, I can’t even remember bc I don’t really like chlor water, I prefer natural water in lakes or ponds.

101: Saw someone I haven’t seen in awhileI meet all of my friends pretty regularly but a few weeks ago I saw my aunt and cousins who live in the Netherlands. We had a really good time which was surprising because sometimes we don’t have a lot to talk about.

103: Hugged someoneYesterday

107: CollegeIt can be a good experience for people and it’s definitely good to get an education. I personally tried University (which is college here) and it wasn’t for me.

109: Gas PricesI mean, they were actually quite low around here for a while. They are higher now, which sucks but I usually come through with 30 Euros per month because I don’t drive around in my car a lot since I have an all-year public transport card I can use.

113: EbayRarely use it but every time I did it went okay, so I guess it’s alright.

127: East Coast or West CoastHaven’t seen either, so no comment ;) 

131: Small town or Big cityBoth have their flaws but I’d prefer living in the outskirts of a big city like I’ve done all my life. We have a lot of nature around but don’t have to drive too long to get to the city center and we have all the shopping opportunities around still. 

137: Coke or PepsiCoke

139: Flip flops or high heelsOh gosh, I have worn a lot of flat shoes in the last few weeks and during winter but I am a high heel girl all the way. I love my high heels!

149: Hot or coldCold! Cold please!

151: Red heads or Black hairedI am a redhead, so that’s that ;) 

157: Do I Believe in WarNo, not at all. I don’t think war solves any problems, I don’t think violence brings any answers. 

163: HellUhm, I don’t know but I guess not? 

167: FateYou know, I have always said I don’t believe in things like Fate but with the things that have happened in the last few months (and especially how they have happened), I am not so sure anymore.

173: Are your parents divorced? ´No, they are still married.

179: Spongebob canI am sorry but...what? does? that? mean?

181: On my calendarThere are a loooooot of appointments right now.

193: My height is6′3′’ aka 160cm. I am very smol.

I was tagged by @redsideofthe--moon!!

Rules: tag followers you want to get know better

Name: rebecca

Gender: female

Star sign: aquarius

Height: 5′3, maybe 5’4 if I’m feeling like lying to myself

Sexuality: lesbian

House: ravenclaw

What image do you use as your wallpaper? On my iPad, my wallpapers are nice pictures of flowers I’ve taken, and on my phone my lock screen is a subtle Carmilla wallpaper, where it’s this blue and black sky and my regular screen is a dark and starry night with a Carmilla quote that is indiscernible since my phone is small because I wanted dark backgrounds so they wouldn’t burn my eyes if I opened my phone in the dark lmao

Have you ever had a crush on a teacher? I had a small crush on my grade 10 science teacher and recently I had a crush on my politics TA if that counts?

Where do you see yourself In ten years?  I see myself in a small Toronto apartment, hopefully in a job as either a teacher or an administrator, financially stable, able to pay rent and still going to concerts and chilling with my friends

If you could be anywhere right now where would you be? I’d be in the Austrian countryside in my family’s cottage, close by our farm, sleeping in and then making myself a small Viennese breakfast and think about still being able to visit family in  Italy and France after a week or two of relaxation in this little cottage

What was your coolest Halloween costume? One year I went as Sgt. Pepper from The Lonely Hearts Club Band! And last Halloween I used the jacket from that costume to be Minerva from The Wicked + Divine

Favourite 90s tv show? The Nanny!!! I love Friends, Fresh Prince, Living Single, Daria, and Buffy too tho

Last kiss: Tragically, that would have to be my very out there conspiracy theorist/uber-conservative grandma giving me a kiss on the cheek after I fixed her computer yesterday

Have you ever been stood up?: Haven’t really been on a formalized date, but I did once get lost and went to the wrong place and thought I was being stood up by someone haha

Have you ever been to Las Vegas: When I was in California visiting family, I never got the chance to go to Vegas, so no! Plus I wasn’t old enough to do anything legally there, although maybe it’s for the best that I didn’t pull a Degrassi and gamble my tuition savings

Favourite pair of shoes: I have this pair of Nikes that I’ve had for years that I’ve kept clean and in good condition because they look sleek and they’re so comfortable (and they’re also water proof!). I also have a pair of these brown tweed-ish shoes that I think look really cool

Favourite fruit: apples. they’re super accessible, taste great in pie, and they’re super versatile and you can make them in a whole bunch of flavour combinations when cooking! a close second is the apricot, because I love my apricot tree and the jam and syrup I can make with it

Favourite book: Anne of Green Gables. I also LOVE The Tales of Beedle the Bard, Scrappy Little Nobody, Ash, Beauty Queens, the Love is Love anthology from DC, and Sex Criminals and Strangers in Paradise (the comic series’ - not sure if they count as books or not?)

The stupidest thing you’ve ever done: I lied to my mom about being in the elementary school choir for almost a year and a half (i used to be a member but the group leader/music teacher was really mean so I stopped going) and was really sneaky about it until i made a dumb mistake by forgetting about this music competition and when my mom asked why she didn’t get a form from me to sign i spilled everything lmaoooo

also kinda gross but one time I decided to blow my nose right after jaw surgery even though i was told not to and i ended up having a blood clot in my nose and a whole bunch of pressure that didn’t go away for like 2 months so medically speaking that would probably be the dumbest thing I’ve ever done

All-time favourite tv shows: The Fosters, Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman, The Nanny, Golden Girls, The Mary Tyler Moore Show, Brooklyn Nine Nine, Living Single, Drag Race, Masterchef, Friends, Bob’s Burgers, and Galavant (it ended before it’s time!!!) - and with time I think I’ll add Crazy Ex Girlfriend and The Good Place

All-time favourite songs: i... Hate this question because my favourite songs are constantly changing and idk how to prioritize songs by artists i like but i will try. here are my all time faves at the moment, however long the list is.

For this film, Mohsen Makhmalbaf announces a casting call: thousands of people turn up and theres a riot to get in. Each participant is channelling their worries and hopes into the desire to be in a movie. He interacts with them in this autocratic route, which builds the cinema ultimately about power and authority. He demands that people scream on command. One girl becomes so frustrated that she does start to cry, so he tells OK, youve attained it. And shes so happy, but then theres the frustration as she realises this was her moment on screen. She thought thered be a script and a real movie to make afterwards. Its a devastating, beautiful film.

A scene from Close-Up by Abbas Kiarostami.

Close Up, Abbas Kiarostami, 1990

A man pretends to be Mohsen Makhmalbaf, the director of Salaam Cinema . He insinuates himself into a familys life out of loneliness, to make friends. At one point the family realise hes not really the director and have him apprehended. The cinema follows this mans trial in an Iranian court, and then the real Mohsen Makhmalbaf satisfies the man and takes him to the family.

The impostors fragility ultimately embodies what it means to be poor and fighting in life, and through that you feel how sad it is that we live in a world where people are measured by wealth and power, and the cruelty that any human being could ever feel insignificant.

Gates of Heaven, Errol Morris, 1978

This was Errol Morriss first cinema. He was taking his time with it so Werner Herzog promised If you finish this film I will eat my shoe, which he did. Its about two families in California who operate pet graveyards, and it looks at humen relationships to their pets. Its an odd mystery, a pet. We eat animals, we use them for labor, but then we keep them in our home as objects upon which we project love that we maybe lack elsewhere. Morris has these carefully crafted tableaux: theres one continuous shooting where a woman has a 15 -minute lament, complaining about aspects of their own lives, and thats where the movie becomes something altogether greater and more mysterious.

Loss Is to Be Expected, Ulrich Seidl, 1992

This was constructed shortly after the fall of communism in eastern Europe and it looks at two communities on either side of the Czech-Austrian border. Theres an elderly human in Austria looking for a new spouse, and he fulfils a lone single woman on the Czech side of the border.

There are these amazing scenes where they go on a date to a funfair and then to a sexuality museum. Shes much more sexually comfy than he is, which is a source of incredible comedy. But its about passion and love and the fulfilling of our quotidian needs and the necessary, wilful blindness towards our deeper needs because ultimately, to contemplate those requires is to contemplate our own mortality.

The Hour of the Furnaces, Octavia Getino and Fernando e Solanas, 1968

This is a furious, angry cinema about neocolonialism in Argentina, and its the most devastating look at colonialism Ive seen in nonfiction films. The sections about Argentinas oligarchy, and the exploitation on which they flourished, are so poetically rendered that you relate to the horror of totalitarianism purely through your emotions.

It was built secretly and was screened at illegal opponent meetings, in defiance of the authoritarian rule. People were arrested for screening it. I imagine that ensure it at the time you would come out feeling like youd “re going to have to” do something about the situation. There are segments of The Act of Killing where I surely had this film in the back of my head. KB

British director Lucy Walker has been Oscar-nominated twice, for Waste Land ( 2010) and The Tsunami and the Cherry Blossom ( 2011 ). She is currently working on a remaking of Buena Vista Social Club .

Hoop Dreams, Steve James, 1994

Hoop Dreams follows two very talented African American boys in Chicago who get a basketball scholarship to go to a prestigious, predominantly white high school. It follows them for five years and its a spectacular example of a longitudinal documentary where you get to glimpse the machinery of life. You get a real sense of hour unfold and the big forces that act on us. The twistings and turnings are subtle , nothing much happens, and yet it feels unbelievably dramatic and compelling because its so well crafted and the characters are so beautifully rendered. I watched it repeatedly when I was stimulating my first cinema, Devils Playground , because it follows young people through this pivotal period in “peoples lives”, and I was trying to understand how you could get so much narrative, feeling and character into a movie. Theres a scene where the mum is icing a birthday cake for her sons 16 th birthday. Its an interview, in the sense that the film-maker is asking her the issues and shes talking to camera, but it doesnt feel like one, its so much more cinematic and compelling and the activity is so perfect.

Streetwise, Martin Bell, 1984

This film had its beginnings in a photojournalism assignment for Life magazine by the photographer Mary Ellen Markabout a group of street kids living in Seattle. She persuaded her husband, Martin Bell, to make a film about them. Its just so intimate that its hard to believe the film-maker is actually in the room with these kids. Its like hes put on a cloak of invisibility. I could have chosen any number of cinema vrit masterpieces but for some reason this moves me. Ive made quite a few films with young people and its fascinating because the plot of their lives is so close to the surface: one conversation can change the course of your life when youre young in a way that is rare when youre older and you are able to capture that nano-second when the course of a lifes direction is altered. When you put a camera and a cinema crew into a room, the observers paradox is almost always true you cant capture life because youre in the way of it. But these kids seem unaware of the camera and theyre behaving in a way that feels like life unfolding. The filmmaker is so present with them, you cant help but understand what theyre “re going through”, and to understand is to feel empathy and to want to help.

The Five Obstructions by Lars Von Trier.

The Five Obstructions, Lars von Trier and Jrgen Leth, 2003

In this underrated cinema the iconoclastic Danish director Lars von Trier challenges experimental film-maker Jrgen Leth to remake one of his earlier movies, The Perfect Human , 5 times, each time with a different creative constraint. The first obstruction imposed by von Trier, for example, was that the cinema had to be made in Cuba, using shootings of no more than 12 frames. Another was that it had to be made as a cartoon. Its basically these two creative egos going up against one another and it dedicates a fascinating insight into the film-making process, what goes on in a directors head and how you cope with stress and constraint and challenge. Its delicious and playful and theres never a dull moment watching these two maestros needling each other.

The Gleaners and I, Agns Varda, 2000

This film was made during the early days of the hand-held digital camera, when for the first time you could capture something high-quality enough to show on a big screen on a camera that would fit in your handbag. Its an essay about the people who pick through other peoples leftovers, whether it be the remains of the harvest in the countryside, or in cities. Its very casual, but Varda is so astute and the quality of the film-making is such that it becomes something very beautiful, a meditation on life. Were having this golden age of documentary right now and its being driving in technology. In the past you would need to write a script first because the editing process was so laborious but now you are able to shoot a whole bunch of stuff and capture life in a way that you couldnt before and this movie, shot by a 72 -year-old woman employing a very low-key format, shows you just what level of artistry is possible.

Up series, Michael Apted, 1964

Im fascinated by longitudinal film-making and this series, which has followed the lives of 14 British infants since 1964, when they were seven years old, showed me what the medium was capable of. This series is head and shoulders above any other attempt to record dramatically a whole human life. And because its a whole group of people, you learn not just about the individual but also about the organizations of the system in which theyre living. I cant think of any other artefact in our culture that can tell us so much about Britain in our lifetime and how society is evolving as this body of work. Its light and fascinating and its one of the things that inspired me to do the work that I do. JOC

Alex Gibneys award-winning films include Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room ( 2005 ), Taxi to the Dark Side ( 2007) and Mea Maxima Culpa: Silence in the House of God ( 2012 ). Last year he released documentaries on Scientology and Steve Jobs. He tells: I dont believe in five best films. But I do believe in influential films. These are five of mine .

Night and Fog, Alain Resnais, 1955

What really impressed me about this movie was its concision. Its about the Holocaust, but it has a simple and horrible beauty to it, because it describes the scaring nature of the Holocaust through a powerful series of images and a narration that was specific, naming the collections of items of the prisoners and survivors. Its the cruel verse of detail that is so heartbreaking: the handles of the ovens, the fingernail scrapings on the ceilings of the cells. We assure piles of combs, shaving brushes, shoes and a vast mountain of human hair. It took something so horrible but discovered a way to go to the heart of the matter through simple details.

Gimme Shelter , Albert and David Maysles, Charlotte Zwerin 1970

Here you assure the Rolling Stones on tour singing about empathy for the demon, but their posturing about satanism blows back at them at the Altamont music festival. Its structured like a detective tale: it starts with a assassination a Hells Angel stabs somebody who seems to have a gun in the audience and then you go back in time. Maybe one of the most powerful scenes is of the Stones listening to a playback of Wild Ponies in the studio. Its stunning in its simplicity. That movie went route beyond a concert reveal; it celebrates music but its really about a few moments in time and how dark forces-out get unleashed. Its powerful both in its observation and its analysis, which is a rare combination.

Leon Gasts When We Were Kings. Photograph: Sportsphoto Ltd/ Allstar

When We Were Kings , Leon Gast, 1996

This is perhaps the greatest sport cinema ever attained. It has wonderful cinema vrit footage of the Rumble in the Jungle, the famous 1974 battle between Muhammad Ali and George Foreman. Gast has the most magnificent material, particularly in Muhammad Ali on a running, dancing, gooning for the camera, at his most charismatic. And then the dwell figure of George Foreman. But Gast wasnt be permitted to put that footage together, and in arrives Taylor Hackford, shoots some interviews with people who were there , notably George Plimpton and Norman Mailer, and through their recollection you also have a sense of analysis and understanding rather than mere observation. So its combining those two things in the film that really is magnificent.

Stories We Tell , Sarah Polley, 2012

This is a detective narrative thats very much in the first person. Its about identity, trying to understand your childhood, and ultimately paternity. Sarah Polley is digging back into the relationship between her mother and father, who she discovers isnt her biological father. In some quarters she was criticised for using a series of fictional home movies that she manufactured, but it didnt bother me at all they might as well any objections to dreamings and memories, because those are everyday recreations. The trick is receiving the verse in their own homes. Its a very powerful movie about memory and exploration and love, because she comes to appreciate her adoptive father in a manner that is she might not otherwise have done.

Waltz With Bashir, an animated documentary.

Waltz With Bashir , Ari Folman, 2008

Part of the small but growing category of the animated documentary, Waltz With Bashir is actually a film about repressed memory, and the recollection of Israeli soldiers trying to understand why theyre having these nightmares. The notion of using animation to convey what is mostly going on inside their heads, in their imaginations, is such a powerful one. It doesnt become clear until nearly the end that the soldiers all took part in the Sabra and Shatila refugee camp massacre in Lebanon in 1982. And the very end of the movie includes just the slightest bit of real footage: a woman whimpering in the wake of that carnage. It really is one of the most poignant movies about the trauma of war.

British film-maker Kim Longinotto tackles topics such as female genital mutilation ( The Day I Will Never Forget ) and women opposing abuse ( Sisters in Law ). Her most recent cinema, Dreamcatcher , is on Chicago females trying to leave the sexuality industry .

Shermans March, Ross McElwee, 1986

I saw this at film school, then watched it again at a festival a couple of years ago and thought it was so charming, so good. It has a very simple premise. The director is meant to be making a film about General Shermans march through Georgia during the course of its American civil war, but he falls out of love with the idea. Instead, the film becomes about his attempts to find a girlfriend, shooting as a kind of video diary an approach that was completely new at the time. Its so candid and affectionate and lovely, and everyone at the celebration loved it. Not many cinemas bear rewatching, but this one does.

Tales of the Grim Sleeper, Nick Broomfield, 21

Nick Broomfield has become much more serious and political in recent years and this is a difficult and perpetrated cinema. Its about a man who was arrested in 2010 for killing as many as 100 prostitutes in Los Angeles over a period of 25 years. Whats extraordinary is how he managed to get away with it for so long the police didnt seek because his victims were mostly black prostitutes. Its a very timely cinema, in terms of Black Lives Matter and police abuses in the US, and I thought he got it just right. Its also a really good crime story.

Solar Mamas.

Solar Mamas, Jehane Noujaim and Mona Eldaief, 2012

This is a film about Bedouin women trying to get solar energy in their village in Jordan. It follows one woman travelling to a college in India to become a solar engineer. I like it because its not saying, Oh, look at these poor women. Instead, it presents women actively changing their lives and I found that very inspiring. So many documentaries tell you what to think. This one doesnt it puts you straight into the story and you get to know the characters merely by watching them. It was part of a very good BBC series on poverty. Thats where all the good Tv documentaries are at the moment: on the BBC.

Virunga, Orlando von Einsiedel, 2014

I watched this in the cinema, which was good because its very beautifully filmed a real spectacle. Its set in a reserve in the Congo, which is home to the last mountain gorillas on earth and it follows the people who are trying to save them, as well as the corrupted people trying to get the land to drill petroleum. Theres a moment when the person or persons in a neighbouring village are assaulted. It was filmed so well, I dont know how they did it. Youre right in the thick of it and you feel so angry, because you know it all come to corrupt practices and greed.

Five Broken Cameras.

Five Broken Cameras, Emad Burnat, Guy Davidi, 2011

This is about a Palestinian man who films the destruction of his villages olive orchards by the Israeli army. His cameras maintain get broken by the Israelis, hence the title, but he just maintained filming. I think he was feeling: Theres an incredible incorrect being done to my people, Im going to film it, even if I succumb doing it. Then he linked up with an Israeli film-maker, who edited the footage. I recollect people saying he shouldnt have worked with an Israeli, but I thought it was so great that they came together and made something very powerful which showed us what is really going on in Palestine.

James Marsh: In my view there should be no borders to film-making

James Marsh is a British film-maker, best known for the Oscar-winning documentary Man on Wire ( 2008) and the acclaimed Stephen Hawking biopic, The Theory of Everything .

Man with a Movie Camera , Dziga Vertov, 1929

This was the first truly subversive, playful documentary. Its notionally a day in the life of a city in the Soviet Union and so it has, on a purely sociological/ historical level, great value. But what it does beyond that is to show you the means of production: the filming, the trim room, the editing all the things that are going into the stimulating of this film. Its style before its period, the Tristram Shandy of documentaries, if you like. Its so inventive and it has techniques that, 87 years later, still look pretty revolutionary: the freeze frames and slow motion. Its simply full of inventive and brilliant formal ideas as well as being a very beautiful cinema to watch. And its informative too, showing us the Soviet Union in a halcyon period before Stalins terror, when you felt that things were still possible in a new political context. Of course we now know that Vertov suffered in the Stalin era, as many other independent artists would have done, but theres a sort of optimism and a playfulness to it that you wouldnt expect from a Soviet documentary from 1929.

Le Sang des Btes , Georges Franju, 1949

This is a documentary about an abattoir that was built in Paris just after the second world war. If the cinema had been shot in colouring it would be unwatchable, its so gory and weird and disturbing, but its in black and white and so it becomes a bit more abstract. There are images in that cinema that I think are some of the most powerful Ive ever seen. Theres a surreal sequence where lots of sheep have been beheaded and theyre all dancing without their heads on this conveyor belt. Its like a bit of choreographed horror, but its all real. The director Georges Franju went on to have a career doing very artistic horror movies in French cinema, most famously a cinema called Les Yeux Sans Visage .

The War game by Peter Watkins.

The War Game , Peter Watkins, 1965

In this film, Watkins takes a possible scenario a nuclear attack on London and shows you very carefully, each step of the style, what is likely to happen. It was banned by the BBC for many years because it was just too harrowing a depiction of a reality that all individuals at that time was very concerned about: this was in the middle of the cold warand at the time there were dozens of warheads pointing at us. Its like a documentary made by Brecht youre staging something to flush out a reaction in the audience, and that reaction is one of utter horror. Some people would say this is not a documentary because everything was staged, but its a speculative documentary the director is saying: This is how it could be and Im going to show you this in a way thats very truthful.Its very responsible, even if the imagery is very disturbing: youre find bobbies firing at people in the street, people with their clothes burned off. His information is sourced directly from the government and based on scientific fact, so the bed of it is factual, and people responded to it “as if its” a real documentary.

Stockholm, plans for the future and nostalgia for the past

Palma EVS – Part 21

April 24th – May 28th

It was more than a month ago that I sat down to write my last post, but I'm back to finish what I started and to present another part of my EVS.

Next up: Another birthday to celebrate, my trip to Stockholm, a new coworker at Acción Balear, preaparations to go to Amsterdam, Rotterdam and Brussels and the return of the Mallorcan beach season.

Before May started there was still plenty to do. Other than some normal work stuff I continued my Spanish classes and my final exam is only a week from now. As time went on I started to like the class more and more, I feel like it brought back my motivation to learn the language and now I can actually see myself trying really hard to improve it even without classes or being in Spain. Learning the basics of Spanish were a big step. Shoutout to all the participants of the class who gave up midway through, having only 4-6 people in the class makes a big (positive) difference.

Our Austrian flatmate, Malin's birthday was also properly celebrated in April. Alles Gute zum Geburstag!

On the first of May I did close to nothing as it was International Workers' Day, but I did book my flight for a few day visit in Stockholm. A fitting celebration of the day I think. Thanks to Ryanair for the strangely cheap tickets!

Early in the month Lisa from France arrived to Palma to start her internship at Acción Balear, so for the  remainder of our EVS we will have an extra coworker at the organization, which is always nice. The extra work of translation checks are not that great, but hopefully I will be able to survive it. After about a 100 pages I'm still alive, but let me tell you I'm not looking for more. Unfortunately it's inevitable.

During the week that Lisa arrived me and Pier found reasonably priced plane tickets to Amsterdam and ones to travel from Brussels back to Palma. So, the hunt for accommodations began. We soon had to realize that staying in Amsterdam in June is not cheap at all. It helped that two of our flatmates, Steffie and Malin decided to join us on our travel. At the end we will spend 3 days – switching accomodations during our stay -  in the capital of Netherlands, then spend a night in Rotterdam before going to Brussles and spend 1 and a half days there before returning to Mallorca. It will also cost more than I expected, but hey, it will be a great one last travel before we say goodbye to each other and EVS. Having said that if anybody out there is willing to offer me a job starting in August I am more than willing to consider it to bring my bank balance to a normal level.

Only a few days after we sorted out the tickets to Amsterdam on Thursday it was time for me to switch Palma to Sweden for a long weekend.

I landed at Skavsta airport around 11 o'clock at night and a 80 minute long bus ride was ahead of me before reaching Stockholm. I was quite lucky with the weather, I believe the coldest it got during my stay was 0°C and during the day it was around 15°C. Not bad at all! It was still colder than Palma though, so it was quite refreshing, which I didn't mind at all. Just like when Pier and me went to Manchester the colder weather made me actually excited. Maybe I am crazy to be happy seeing my breath due to the cold, but that's how I felt. Same thing happened when we drove next to forest. It was a proper forest, with the kind of trees that I'm used to. None of that palm tree madness.

After arriving to Stockholm, finding my hostel, getting some sleep and getting ready for the day my Scandinavian adventure truly began. Having only two full days to discover the city before flying back on the morning of Sunday I had a plan how spend my time. I dedicated the first day to see eastern (Kungsholmen), southern (Södermalm) and middle parts (Gamla Stan). I spent most of the second full day in Östermalm and Djurgården except the night when I went to the center and even to Vasastan. Here is a map, if you want to check were these are located.

Places and things I saw:

Day 1: The City Hall, Rålambshovsparken, Långholmen, Monteliusvägen, the Old Town, the Royal Palace and Armoury, Riksdag, Skeppsholmen & Kastellholmen.

Day 2: Kungsträdgården, Vasa Museum, Skansen, Royal Djurgården, Blå Porten.

Pastries I tried: kanelbulle, kardemummabullar, sockerbullar, kanelbullar, vaniljbulle. Let  me tell you all of these were brilliant, with vaniljbullar being my favourite.

As I was walking literally everywhere it's no wonder that my feet were ruined by the end of all. It was totally worth it though. Hopefully I will return to Sweden someday, because I had a great time and there are still so much left to see in Stockholm. I absolutely loved the different islands connected by bridges, the language which is more than charming, all the pastries, the late sunsets.

The negatives? The high prices for a pint of beer. One night I paid over 60 Swedish crowns for a beer, which is more than 6€. The difference is big between Spain and Sweden in this regard and huge between Sweden and Hungary. Even with that it was worth it.

Stockholm ended up as a great place for my first ever solo trip abroad. I still think that traveling with someone else is much nicer, but even alone it was a nice experience being between all those surprisingly tall Swedes.

After returning to Mallorca I also started trying out the different kinds of sweets I brought back from Sweden, including some things with salty liquorice (salmiak/salmiakki) and I am not a huge fan of those. For me eating salmiak is way too similar to accidentally swallowing some sea water. Luckily I did discover some amazing candies,the best 2 being the original Polly and Bilar Ahlgrens. Those ones I could eat all day, every day.

Back in Palma I got back to normal life. Work continued, Tottenham Hotspur played their last game at White Hart Lane, this season of the Premier League ended and the summer weather returned to the island of sun. So amongst other things we went to the beach twice this week. I also figured out a way to use all my lefover days-off of my EVS. Basically every single weekend will be a long weekend for me as Mondays I will be free from work and towards the very end I will have Thursdays too, when I don't have to work. All that free time should give me enough opportunities to enjoy the beaches of Mallorca before I leave Spain.

As I'm writing this post another week of my EVS is coming to its end, which is on one hand is a little sad knowing that the 8th of July is not so far from now, but on the other hand I had a pleasant surpe earlier today... As I was about to start typing these words I got a call from Ilona and Félix. Now you are probably wondering who are they. Well, they are 2 former EVS volunteers who first met during our on-arrival training, then visited us here in Palma. On the picture up top Ilona is the girl on the right in front of me, Félix is the guy on the left. Currently they are living in Ukrain and planning to move to France. European Voluntary Service is awesome! And I say that even though after our call I ended up in a nostalgic mood looking at pictures from the last 11 months. But all this is part of life.  

Thanks for reading, I will be back with the next part sooner or later.
