Panorama is the first word for landscape in Greek. It was about [how today] we see everything, we get to see everything, everything is shown to you whether you want it or not, but all of the time you only see fragments of reality. The big picture we really don't see; it's kind of hard to make it up.

We see everything, we see what's going on in Syria, we see what's going on with the refugees. What can you do about it? And we have to do something.
