De nouvelles formes de conflits après 1989

Le 9 novembre 1989 chute le mur de Berlin. Cet évènement marque la fin d’un monde bipolaire opposant l’Union soviétique et les États-Unis. Mais la fin de la guerre froide ne signifie pas la fin des conflits. Au profit des plus puissants, la guerre se transforme et se réinvente.

Turner: 250th Anniversary

One of Britain’s favourite painters, JMW Turner, was born 250 years ago, but his art continues to inspire, just as it inspired the Impressionists in the 19th century. It has a modernity that stands in contrast to his contemporary rival John Constable. It’s hard not to believe Turner would have been proud of the iconoclastic annual art prize that bears his name.

L’inégalité femme-homme dans l’accès aux postes de pouvoir

Malgré les progrès en droit de ces dernières années, l’égalité femme-homme reste inachevée dans les faits. L’égalité réelle demande encore un profond changement des mentalités et des pratiques sociales, d’autant plus lorsqu’il est question de position de pouvoir.

Easter Traditions

Easter traditions are fairly similar from one English-speaking country to another, but it's nice for pupils to discover them and compare them with their own traditions. Although originally a religious festival, many of the popular traditions such as chocolate eggs and the Easter bunny have more to do with secular celebrations.

Orangutan Eco-Warrior

Ozi: Voice of the Forest is an animated film with an ecological message. Its protagonist, Ozi, is a young orangutan who is separated from her parents during a forest fire. She finds refuge in a sanctuary where she learns sign language. But when she hears her parents are alive, she sets off to find them. Orangutans are humans' closest relatives in the animal world. They are a critically endangered species and live only in the Pacific, principally on the islands of Borneo and Sumatra. There are fewer than 120,000 orangutans left in the wild and their habitat is threatened by human activity: the rainforests they live in are being cut down to create palm oil plantations to feed our desire for shampoo, chocolate spreads and cosmetics. That is the situation in the film, which is co-produced by actor Leo DiCaprio, well-known for his commitment to the environment. The film trailer will allow pupils to piece together the story. We see wildfires, Ozi explaining her life in the sanctuary she calls an orphanage, and her realisation she can and must try to save her parents and habitat. It introduces her friends, a monkey called Chance and a rhinoceros called Honkys. Pupils can make hypotheses about the place her parents are being kept and what the company GreenZar is doing taht is "destroying our island". https://youtu.be/URWqCWhyJRc This very short introductory scene narrated by Hugh Bonneville would be great for anticipation: how could this tiny ape "change the world"? https://youtu.be/Td1kDxvKJfI   This short clip entitled "Home Sweet Home" shows the paradisical life Ozi had as baby with her parents in the rainforest. It's good for revising family vocabulary. https://youtu.be/rgdCEYSmBXs This clip shows Ozi rediscovering the forest with Chance after living in the human world. (She has a tablet to take photos because she has become an influencer, helping the charity that helped her teach the world about he species.)

And this article from the WWF site explains what products contain palm oil and how to find responsibly-produced palm-oil products. This film would make a great complement to Shine Bright 5e SnapFile 8 Save Rang-Tan, a beautiful animated poem about saving orangutan habitat created by Greenpeace and narrated by Emma Thompson.     Ozi: Voice of the Forest On general release 2 April 2025
