In the last couple of months I had the honour of filming a number of old (as in 75 to 3-digit years) people. I always enter the room with great respect for what they have been through. They have suffered at least one world war, built up the countries and are now at despair to the route politicians are taking Europe. Money – not people’s best interests – seem to rule the world.

We should listen more to old people and less to Excel sheets.
