A fact check. What can be seen in the video?

Rarely have we received so many requests for a video that is also incredibly difficult to rate. But in short: It has now turned out that this video shows footage from a satirical shoot.

Short description: This is the following video in which a camera team is observed recreating an AfD stand and playing demo scenes. Several people appear in stereotypical representation.

At the same time, these observed scenes are commented on by AfD politicians.

Correctiv did some research

The colleagues from Correctiv have revealed the secret: these recordings are from the filming of a video by the Bohemian Browser Ballet. The Corrective writes:

At the request of EchtNow, SWR company spokesman Wolfgang Utz confirmed “that this was filming by the responsible production company for the satirical radio format 'Bohemian Browser Ballet'”.

The Correctiv also found a selfie from the filming location on the Instagram account of one of the actresses. The photo can be found here .

MIMIKAMA

The Correctiv also has information that this shoot was approved. At the same time, the video shoot was announced on a notice board. This means that it was possible to see on site what was being shot.

We therefore strongly assume that this entire video will be published shortly on the Bohemian Browser Ballet channel, namely on this Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/bohemianbrowserballett/

Update September 17, 2018

You can now watch the finished video. The scene above can be found at 0:56.

We don't have to reinvent the wheel at this point, but rather refer to the very detailed and thorough article at Correctiv:
