The German documentary crew that did that OSA documentary I have mentioned on this board are looking for somebody to translate the video into english from german.

A link to the german version (with it's new section on Scientology in Russia) is here:

They asked me to put out the word. Hope somebody can help!

t's been uploaded twice with English subtitles, but taken down by YouTube due to copyright claim by Südwestfunk TV. Markus needs to deal with them.

There are two versions of this documentary - which one are you talking about Smurf?

This is the older version, and it still seems to be up also including the subtitles (there are a couple of seconds missing at the beginning)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mFcrF3mLwyU

The version AGP linked is the newer edit of the documentary with added segments on Greece and Russia - as of yet unsubtitled (I think?)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=14G3fduLeWs
The new segment starts at 52:20.
Didn't the involved news team do their own subtitles last time?
Whoever did it last time did a very good job, that much is certain. :flower:

You were lucky to find a mirrored copy that YouTube hasn't taken down. The other one was: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCX5-ty ... r_embedded

Interesting indeed!

I was under the impression the team behind the documentary was responsible for creating the subtitles and uploading it to youtube in the first place - and now the TV station they work for is taking it down.
Seems a little inconsistent?

I hope they realize that this is an important piece of investigative journalism that should best be distributed as widely as possible... (and besides, they are part of the public broadcasting network too)

I asked documentarian Frank Nordhausen what happened:

Quote:
Hi Pope,

the problem is as follows: the Scientologists found some minor mistakes in the ARTE documentary - and since we corrected them in the new version, they went to ARTE and other channels and told them: "look, the documentary is wrong". Result: ARTE obeyed them and stopped distributing the film - and they asked Youtube to take it down.

Result: The Scientologists won.

At present the Scientologists try to do the same with the new version. So if you have the possibility to save the version and in case it is also taken down from Youtube let it show up again it could be a real "win" for all critics.

But I also hope that this time we will be tougher.

Best

Frank

Thanks AGB!
That explains it... I found some reports on the swr/ard websites that were comparably soft and was beginning to think there must be some kind of lobbying going on within the network.
But it also makes sense that Scientology is just actively scanning all the reports on them for things they can claim to be "false".

I am wondering if there is a way to save a video from youtube including the subtitles...

The subtitled one is still up. It was mirrored knowing that YT would probably yank the original.
