The False Promise of Advancement

Origin sticks like shit to your shoe! That's what Marlen Hobrack says, who grew up as a working-class child in Bautzen. But the promise of the old Federal Republic was that you can become anything if you just try hard enough. But that no longer applies. So is class in Germany fixed from birth? Have we long been living in a country in which origin and family background are more important for future prospects than individual performance and commitment? In Germany, it takes six generations to rise from poverty to the middle class, in Denmark only two generations. Those affected reflect on their life stories, the burden of their social origins, the wrong and right turning points for social advancement, as classified by social researchers. They talk of pride and shame, of financial hardship and wealth, of origin and future, of growing up and moving up in this Germany with its entrenched selection mechanisms for social advancement.

J'ai pas les mots, 8 semaines pour sortir de l'illettrisme

In France, 3.7 million people are illiterate. "J'ai pas les mots, 8 semaines pour sortir de l'illettrisme" (I don't have the words, 8 weeks to overcome illiteracy) gives them a face, a voice, and above all, a chance. For eight weeks, seven participants from different backgrounds, all facing illiteracy, will follow an intensive learning program, supervised by trainers and coaches, and accompanied by singer Kendji Girac. Through practical, fun, and realistic workshops, they will tackle everyday challenges. Week after week, these learners will attempt to regain their independence and, above all, their self-confidence. Until the final challenge: writing and reading a personal speech in front of their loved ones.
