A 30-minute weekly cultural magazine program. The head of aspekte, Wolgang Herles, describes the program as follows: "For 40 years, "aspekte" has repeatedly set out to enrich television with cultural contrasts. "aspekte" understands culture not as the sum of facts and events, but as the taste, the sound, the rhythms of the times. It has proven itself as a journal of true luxury and fashions as well as an instrument of public education and information."

Eleven moving dates, eight friends: Philipp, Wiebke, Jessica, Maria, Swantje, Michael, Thomas, Dina – all in their twenties and mutually lonesome. And always searching: For a new city, a new job, an own apartment, a new, or even an old love. The search is never-ending, and so they repeatedly find themselves at a ritual gathering: someone moving. Boxes are shifted from one side of Berlin to the other, or the length and breadth of Germany, from one abode to the next as one life is exchanged for another. In 3 ZIMMER/KÜCHE/BAD, director Dietrich Brüggemann portrays existences in which relationships, social networks and backdrops are in a constant state of flux; where best friends are the only, and therefore the most valuable constant. Humorous sketches of the self-conception of a generation for whom moving has become the symbol of a life on the go.

A documentary. David Sieveking takes the advice of his idol, David Lynch and tries out Maharishi Mahesh Yogi's transcendental meditation technique.

Magdalena has to wash glasses at her own graduation ball. Rudi, who is in love with her, has to endure the presence of her boyfriend Julian. Julian doesn't have to do anything, but lets his mother look after him. They are united by one wish: To find their own path in life - not an easy task when, firstly, there is no guidance and, secondly, the dear family with all its lived compromises, lost ideals and a good dose of resignation stands in the way.

Documentary about refugees in Berlin

David Sieveking left home years ago to make films. Now he has returned – and for a reason: To help his mother, Gretel, who has Alzheimer’s, and relieve her long-time carer and his father Malte for a few weeks. The filmmaker takes on the role of carer and documents this encounter with his camera. Gretel no longer knows the people around her, but her puns and charm have not faded. The time spent with his mother becomes a journey into David’s unexpected family history. Once active in Zurich’s left-wing scene, David’s parents enjoyed a lifelong “open relationship”, characterised by a loving distance and mutual respect. VERGISS MEIN NICHT is a film about dementia, but it’s first and foremost a declaration of a love of life and family.

Just like many other parents Jessica and David, the director of this movie, spend a lot of time researching vaccinations for children. Whilst David understands it as a matter of course, Jessica is more than alarmed about the side effects. They try to figure out the best option for their daughter. David actively investigates and speaks to scientists and doctors from different countries. A sudden outbreak of measles in their Berlin neighbourhood forces them to make a decision: Will they vaccinate their daughter or not?

January 2003, on the eve of the American lead Iraq campaign, a young couple tries to improvise a protest-march heading to the American Embassy in Berlin under the motto "No blood for oil". As nobody shows the solidarity they were trying to gain, the couple starts an argument and the "movement" seems doomed to fail.
