[00:01:42] media, Jorge Messi, Lionel Messi's father,
[00:01:46] died in hospital after a battle with a serious illness at
[00:01:49] the age of 69. Messi's father had been seriously
[00:01:53] ill for several years, and Lionel himself stated during the World Cup
[00:01:56] that Jorge was in a serious condition.
[00:01:59] Jorge had a big role in his son's career, he gave
[00:02:03] everything he had to enable him to receive therapies he had to receive
[00:02:06] in childhood due to growth problems, and during his football
[00:02:10] career he was also
[00:02:12] his manager.
[00:02:21] Tomorrow, sunny weather is expected in Bosnia and Herzegovina, with light to
[00:02:25] moderate northern and northeastern winds. Let's look at the forecast
[00:02:28] temperatures.
[00:02:47] Not far from the Catholic church, on
[00:02:55] You watched the N1 diary, more news can be found on
[00:02:58] n1info.Ba, thank you.
[00:04:02] In the town of Ratimno, everyday life is given
[00:04:05] an annual jolt of excitement when the carnival
[00:04:08] comes to town. It is the largest carnival in Crete and
[00:04:12] the second largest in the whole of
[00:04:14] Greece.
[00:04:20] Among the activities, you'll see a procession consisting of
[00:04:24] 10,000 masked marchers and over 50 special
[00:04:27] floats.
[00:04:42] The students of Rethymno are quite prominent and make up the
[00:04:45] more daring ensembles that can be seen.
[00:04:48] However, most of the floats and musical bands appearing here have been
[00:04:52] sent by other towns and
[00:04:54] villages.
[00:05:16] Just who is to blame for all the jolliness?
[00:05:19] Dionysus, the infamous Greek god of wine and
[00:05:23] unbridled merriment. The participants are certainly trying to live up
[00:05:27] to his idea of
[00:05:28] fun.
[00:05:34] Let us bid farewell to Crete, the island of snow
[00:05:37] capped peaks, olive orchards and uninhibited populace
[00:05:41] that has survived for thousands of years living their traditions to
[00:05:44] the fullest. In just a moment, we will be on the other
[00:05:48] side of the world, visiting an Indonesian village called Lamalera.
[00:06:03] The sun is slowly rising above the Java Sea.
[00:06:07] Flores is one of the 18,000 Indonesian
[00:06:10] islands, the port town of
[00:06:12] Larantuka is waking up to another busy day,
[00:06:32] just as in the times of the imperialist Portuguese and
[00:06:35] Dutch, the port is busy with goods of all
[00:06:38] sorts.
[00:06:41] Today, however, the most common commodity isn't exotic
[00:06:44] spice, it is
[00:06:46] motorcycles.
[00:06:53] Larantuka is a strategic crossroads between all the
[00:06:56] islands of the Lesser Sunda Archipelago. It
[00:07:00] is also the only place from which you can reach the island of
[00:07:03] Lambata. However, our final
[00:07:06] destination is the village of La Malera, where we are headed to
[00:07:10] observe a unique community of hunters.
[00:07:24] Compared to Lambata, Flores is very busy and
[00:07:28] lively. In the Bay of La Malera it is almost as if
[00:07:32] time stands
[00:07:33] still.
[00:07:36] Don't be misled by the sleepy ambience. The natives are about
[00:07:40] to go hunting. In this part of the
[00:07:42] world, the tradition of fishing has remained unchanged for
[00:07:46] 800 years.
[00:07:59] The natives are proud of their ancestors. Over the
[00:08:02] centuries, they have used the same ancient designs and
[00:08:05] techniques to build their whale hunting
[00:08:07] boats.
[00:08:13] As soon as the boat reaches the open sea, it is time to
[00:08:17] sharpen the blade of the harpoon, which is then tied to a rope attached to
[00:08:21] a bamboo
[00:08:21] rod.
[00:08:28] Due to the rather primitive techniques used, the hunters can only manage
[00:08:31] to catch whatever travels near the water surface. They wait
[00:08:35] for the moment when the fin of a shark, a ray, an
[00:08:38] orca, a dolphin or the most praised catch of all, a
[00:08:42] blue whale appears. It can take seemingly endless
[00:08:46] hours.
[00:08:49] The hunters will use the time to maintain their hunting gear and
[00:08:52] smoke cigarettes made from black
[00:08:54] tobacco.
[00:08:58] They like to improve the taste and aroma of these smokes by adding
[00:09:02] cloves.
[00:09:08] Despite the hunters' incredible patience and perseverance,
[00:09:11] today is not a lucky
[00:09:13] day.
[00:09:22] An unsuccessful hunt means dire times for the
[00:09:25] villagers. The sea is the main source of sustenance for the
[00:09:28] locals. They can only manage minimal farming as the land
[00:09:32] is infertile. Therefore, the staple of their
[00:09:35] diet is fish. Instead of
[00:09:38] wheat, they will make flat bread from cassava or manioc.
[00:09:50] Everyday life in Lamalera is plain and very simple.
[00:09:54] The natives must find creative ways of how to do such trivial things
[00:09:58] as dishwashing. Instead of soap, they use ash to
[00:10:02] wash pots and pans (strange, but
[00:10:05] effective).
[00:10:11] In the late afternoon, the fishermen meet on the beach. While
[00:10:15] sipping palm wine, they talk of times when whales were
[00:10:18] plentiful, and it was not uncommon for each man to have caught at least one
[00:10:22] whale every year.
[00:10:25] It is the equivalent of meeting your fellow workers in the local pub,
[00:10:29] but here peacefully playing children are allowed to be on the beach
[00:10:32] while the men have their
[00:10:34] meeting.
[00:10:43] The sun sets over Lamalera. At this most
[00:10:47] important part of the day, the men engage in a ritual meant to
[00:10:50] solicit the help of their ancestors in an effort to ensure a
[00:10:54] successful hunt on the following day. The
[00:10:58] palm wine is plentiful. It is used in curious interaction
[00:11:02] between Christianity and ancient ritual
[00:11:04] traditions. The ceremony begins with a bow to the
[00:11:08] portrait of the Virgin Mary.
[00:11:22] A nighttime pilgrimage through the village.
[00:12:12] The blending of two different faiths is commonplace for the
[00:12:16] natives. Here, it is not unusual to see ancestral
[00:12:19] beliefs combined with elements of
[00:12:21] Christianity.
[00:12:25] mass and thus ensures the wellbeing of the local Christian
[00:12:29] population.
[00:12:31] Christianity enjoys wide spread respect on La
[00:12:34] Malera. Legend has it that long ago Father
[00:12:37] Body, in a time of great poverty, blessed the fishing
[00:12:41] lines, and the following day the hunters returned with a
[00:12:44] big catch, and so Father Body linked the whale hunting
[00:12:48] culture with Christianity. A statue of
[00:12:51] him, honoring his perceived miracles, has been built outside the...
[00:13:09] Today the children in Lamalera have an opportunity to understand the
[00:13:13] world from a whole new perspective. The school day
[00:13:16] begins with the collective prayer and
[00:13:18] singing.
[00:13:20] This world is full of.
[00:13:30] The students are checked in by the headmaster as they greet him.
[00:13:33] Today, the headmaster and students will discuss the issue of
[00:13:37] misdemeanors by a few students. Then they
[00:13:40] learn of the day's teaching plan, but before the day
[00:13:43] goes too far, the students will water the school
[00:13:46] garden. This reinforces for the children
[00:13:49] the concept of being responsible for the
[00:13:51] environment.
[00:14:32] It seems as though the evening prayers have been answered. Dolphin will be
[00:14:36] on the menu today. Their hunting technique requires great
[00:14:40] patience and precision. As soon as the
[00:14:43] target is sighted and their harpoon is ready, the hunter hurls
[00:14:46] himself into the sea. Often, it is a matter of life or
[00:14:50] death. In stark contrast to commercial fishing where
[00:14:54] dolphins are free.
[00:15:25] In this most important endeavor, the children also lend a helping
[00:15:29] hand.
[00:15:35] The entire village plays a part in processing the dolphin. Every
[00:15:39] morsel of the animal is utilized. The meat is divided
[00:15:42] among the families according to a traditional
[00:15:45] hierarchy.
[00:15:50] Lamalera, a harmonious symphony blending life,
[00:15:54] tradition and nature from which the natives take only what they need to
[00:15:58] survive. These fundamental values are passed to the next
[00:16:01] generation so as to maintain the legacy of their
[00:16:04] ancestors.
[00:16:15] In today's episode we discovered two entirely different cultures
[00:16:19] from two different parts of the world, but
[00:16:22] Crete and Lamalera do have one thing in common: Throughout
[00:16:26] millennia, both cultures their
[00:16:29] ancestors.
[00:16:31] Next time we will visit the Arabian peninsula where we will traverse the
[00:16:35] holy land, including the mystic city of
[00:16:38] Jerusalem. Afterwards we will go to the Persian
[00:16:42] Gulf to Bahrain, the tiny kingdom rich in
[00:16:45] history, traditions and considerable mineral wealth.
[00:17:01] Hesperonim Protect 100 mg is recommended for people with
[00:17:04] high and very high risk of cardiovascular
[00:17:08] diseases to reduce the risk of acute heart and brain attack.
[00:17:12] Before use, carefully read the drug leaflet for information on indications and precautions, adverse effects of the drug.
[00:17:15] Consult your doctor or pharmacist. Bayer,
[00:17:19] I
[00:17:21] would have done it
[00:17:24] better, I would have done it better.
[00:17:27] Ožujsko beer, like everything else here, originated
[00:17:31] from the "I would do it better" mentality. Again, they made
[00:17:34] a great commercial. I would...
[00:18:12] Your ice cream destination, Tropik, Moj Market and Crvena
[00:18:16] Jabuka.
[00:18:20] Aspirin Protect 100 mg is recommended for people with
[00:18:24] high and very high risk of cardiovascular diseases to
[00:18:28] reduce the risk of acute heart attack or stroke. Before
[00:18:31] use, carefully read the leaflet for information on indications, precautions and side effects of the medicine.
[00:18:35] Consult your doctor or pharmacist. Bayer.
[00:18:54] Bosnia and Herzegovina,
[00:18:58] and its beauties from another
[00:19:00] perspective.
[00:19:11] Heaven and
[00:19:12] Earth.
[00:19:20] Hidden among the hills, by the river Tešanjka, lies a town with
[00:19:23] great cultural and historical
[00:19:25] wealth.
[00:19:28] Today we are flying above
[00:19:29] Tešanj.
[00:19:35] Its name is mentioned for the first time in 1461.
[00:19:39] One assumption is that the name is of Celtic
[00:19:42] origin, where the word Tesen means a small
[00:19:45] court, while another legend says that a ban had
[00:19:49] an only daughter who loved cherries, and because of his love
[00:19:53] for her, he ordered all his subjects to plant
[00:19:56] a cherry
[00:19:57] orchard.
[00:20:04] So in spring, the city is white with cherry blossoms, and
[00:20:07] people named the city
[00:20:09] Trešanj (Cherry).
[00:20:13] Throughout history, Turkish and Austrian rule alternated, and
[00:20:17] thus this city developed and
[00:20:20] was built.
[00:20:26] Based on extremely fertile soil, due to both its geographical
[00:20:30] position and climatic conditions, this city becomes
[00:20:34] significant for its agricultural development, especially in terms of
[00:20:37] fruit growing as one of the most represented branches of economy
[00:20:41] in this
[00:20:42] area.
[00:20:51] The old town of Tešanj, built on top of a rocky hill, is among
[00:20:55] the three largest fortresses in Bosnia and
[00:20:57] Herzegovina.
[00:21:02] As archaeological excavations showed, the fortress
[00:21:05] existed in prehistoric times, and was later upgraded
[00:21:09] by the Romans, Slavs and
[00:21:11] Turks.
[00:21:14] It served to defend the city and was mainly inhabited by
[00:21:18] the army.
[00:21:22] It is located in the city center, due to its accessibility
[00:21:25] and preservation, it is very often used as a place for various
[00:21:29] events and concerts.
[00:21:47] With the development of the bazaar in Tešanj, there was also a need for
[00:21:50] a clock tower, which was a gift to the city from Fehim-beg
[00:21:54] Smailbegović.
[00:21:58] on which the fortress lies, and is even 18.5
[00:22:01] m high.
[00:22:07] From the fortress, there is a view of the entire city, from where one can
[00:22:11] notice how the city resembles a small
[00:22:14] Kasaba.
[00:22:20] However, among the many houses of traditional Bosnian
[00:22:24] construction, it is impossible not to notice the Eminagić
[00:22:27] house.
[00:22:31] Whoever steps into it has the opportunity to go back in time and
[00:22:35] experience the culture of living from the 19th
[00:22:37] century. This is a traditional Bosnian house
[00:22:41] which passed from the Eminagić family into the
[00:22:44] ownership of the municipality of
[00:22:45] Tešanj.
[00:22:50] Although this city does not have an extremely large population, somewhere
[00:22:54] around 43,000, it is considered one of the stronger
[00:22:58] economic centers of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
[00:23:11] Diversity, tradition and culture are what adorn this
[00:23:15] bazaar.
[00:23:20] At the very entrance to the Tešanj bazaar is the Catholic
[00:23:23] Church of Saints Peter and Paul, in whose restoration Muslims and
[00:23:27] Catholics
[00:23:28] participated together.
[00:23:37] a small elevation, is the Temple of the Intercession of the Most Holy
[00:23:41] Theotokos,
[00:23:46] which contains one of the four most valuable collections of icons and paintings
[00:23:50] in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
[00:24:09] In the center of the bazaar is Ferhad Bey's
[00:24:11] Mosque.
[00:24:16] One of the four Ferhadija mosques in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
[00:24:20] Its minaret was demolished in 2017,
[00:24:23] due to a strong wind that hit
[00:24:25] Tešanj.
[00:24:31] The river Tešanjka runs through the city center, on whose banks
[00:24:35] the people of Tešanj built a city park. Next to
[00:24:39] the park is the Dibekhana
[00:24:40] Mosque.
[00:24:53] And the building of Šareni Mekteb.
[00:25:08] An interesting fact is that the first theatrical performance in Bosnia and
[00:25:11] Herzegovina was held precisely in this city
[00:25:15] 150
[00:25:16] years ago.
[00:25:25] The people of Tešanj are very proud of their rich history
[00:25:29] and cultural heritage, and their love for theater has been
[00:25:33] woven into them to this day.
[00:25:46] The fact that Tešanj is a place of culture and literature is also confirmed by the
[00:25:50] fact that Musa Ćazim Ćatić lived in Tešanj
[00:25:53] for many years, where he was the first editor of Bosniak
[00:25:56] magazines, Behara Biser. Although the poet was
[00:25:59] born in Odžak, his mother was from Tešanj. So
[00:26:03] he also spends a lot of his time in this
[00:26:06] city.
[00:26:14] He experienced Tešanj as the highest sanctuary of his youth
[00:26:17] and poetic life. This great
[00:26:20] Bosnian-Herzegovinian poet dies in Tešanj,
[00:26:24] where his grave is located
[00:26:25] today.
[00:26:31] This city can also boast great natural riches,
[00:26:35] given that there are many sources of mineral
[00:26:38] water here, whose quality is recognized even outside the borders of this
[00:26:42] country. A special magic in this city
[00:26:45] can be experienced in winter when the white blanket falls
[00:26:49] over the old town and takes on the appearance of a fairytale
[00:26:52] castle.
[00:27:01] Surrounded by old houses, the sight
[00:27:04] of warm homes, children warming themselves by the stove and enjoying
[00:27:08] the smell of roasted
[00:27:09] chestnuts.
[00:27:12] We are sure that it was the same this weekend when we
[00:27:16] flew over
[00:27:17] Tešanj.
[00:27:22] This is one of the few cities in Bosnia and Herzegovina where
[00:27:26] the employment rate is growing by 55%
[00:27:30] compared to the previous five years. Last
[00:27:33] year, the number of jobs jumped to
[00:27:36] 14,000, and just five years ago, the number
[00:27:39] of employed was
[00:27:41] 9,000. Once, the people of Tešanj were engaged in
[00:27:45] shoemaking, in which they were extremely good
[00:27:48] craftsmen.
[00:27:52] And today they have one of the largest and
[00:27:54] most recognizable business zones in Bosnia and
[00:27:56] Herzegovina.
[00:27:59] Among the hundred most successful companies from Bosnia and Herzegovina,
[00:28:03] as many as 23 are from Tešanj
[00:28:07] which, thanks to the results of their operations, have become
[00:28:10] leaders in certain economic sectors.
[00:28:32] Bosnia and Herzegovina
[00:28:36] and its beauties from another perspective.
[00:28:50] Heaven and
[00:28:50] Earth.
