Episode synopsis
"Album 2019 - Pictures of a Year" looks back on an eventful and exciting year 2019. The brexite proves to be a never-ending story and in North Korea the presidents Trump and Kim meet. 16-year-old Greta Thunberg calls for civil disobedience and "Fridays for Future" becomes a worldwide outcry against climate change. In Brazil, huge areas of rainforest are burned and hurricane "Dorian" destroys many islands in the Bahamas. In the Ruhr area it is finally "shift in the pit" and Andrea Nahles quits as SPD chairwoman. In Halle, a right-wing extremist run amok attacks the synagogue, and the murder of district president Walter Lübcke causes consternation. Ursula von der Leyen becomes the new president of the EU commission, and Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer her successor as defense minister. In Paris, "Notre Dame" almost becomes a victim of the flames, and the government in Austria falls over the "Ibiza video". This and more in the "Album 2019 - Pictures of a Year".
