Arts news and reviews with Kirsty Lang. Danny Robins offers some tips for a cultural detox.
Presented by Kirsty Lang.
Archaeologist Neil Oliver talks to Kirsty about the new ten-part series A History of Scotland, in which he discusses the myths and characters of Scotland's past and examines the birth of a Scottish identity.
Kirsty visits the Futurism 100! exhibition by Luca Buvoli. Together with critic Richard Cork, Buvoli discusses the art movement which wanted to trumpet the new and happily dismissed the past. He explains how his new multi-media installations aim to explore the themes at the heart of Futurism.
Historian David Cesarani, who specialises in Jewish history, reviews the film Defiance, which stars Daniel Craig as one of the leaders of a group of Jewish resistance fighters who battled the Nazis from their base in the forests of Belarus. David also offers his verdict on a new TV adaptation of the Diary of Anne Frank.
