Justice Now!

For this documentary, Britta Wauer interviewed artists, criminals and children about their understanding of justice and how they deal with its daily violation. In addition, four projects are presented in the film whose aim is to create a better world, not based on utopian fantasies but through the realistic ideas of dedicated people who prove that another world is possible. A music program from Venezuela took thousands of children off the streets and out of the drug scene. The Grameen Bank in Bangladesh, whose founder Muhammad Yunus was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize half a year after the first public screening of this film, revolutionised conventional banking by establishing micro-credit for the poor.
