BEYOND BOARDWALK - A Tale of Excess
Channel: Lena Gartner
Date: 2023-11-26

In times when one corruption case follows the next and the extent to which politics and economy are intertwined becomes apparent, disenchantment with politics is becoming greater, especially among younger people. But our social interaction is not a game in which a few people can break the rules and claim the biggest piece of the cake! 
In order to enable social participation (and empowerment), a discussion about the political “game” is needed.
The video could be used in upper secondary school to initiate discussions about responsible behaviour, social partnerships, inherited wealth, “Freunderlwirtschaft” and structural power. However, the focus of the video is on possible social participation. The aim here is not to indulge in pessimism about the future, hence the humorous and sarcastic approach to the theme.

Key words:
Play… acting and playing are the main theme of the video.
Cover… Taking cover behind your connection. Uncover the truth of corruption. 
Break…  Breaking the law. Breaking the rules. Breaking the expectations of the viewers.
