The podcast show Aktivkohle works in a similar way to the filtering substance of the same name: as a recipe for digestive problems relating to the topic of diversity. Aktivkohle is aimed at all people who are interested in exciting personalities, diversity and real stories and who want to listen with an open heart and mind. This time, host Annabelle Mandeng talks to documentary film author and director Loraine Blumenthal about her life and her new film Changing Sides.
