Swearing in the car, shoving in the subway and elbowing each other when we’re together. If everyone thinks of themselves, is everyone thought of? Presenter Jan Köppen questions the naysayer theory. As the face of the brand new docutainment format MISSION FREUNDLICHKEIT – MEIN 100 TAGE EXPERIMENT, Köppen embarks on a cross-media journey to the scenes of daily disputes. The goal: to be nice to each other again. What begins as an action by one person has the chance to become something really big! Whether prominent supporters, friends, neighbors or the whole of Germany, everyone should take part and support Köppen’s mission with their own actions. Jan Köppen has given the go-ahead for MISSION FREUNDLICHKEIT, produced by UFA SHOW & FACTUAL, and filming has already started in Berlin. At the same time, a kindness community went online on Facebook(www.facebook.com/MissionFreundlichkeit). MISSION FREUNDLICHKEIT – MEIN 100 TAGE EXPERIMENT will be broadcast on the Disney Channel from October 7.

One of the first topics Köppen will address is neighborliness: the presenter is moving into his “friendliness headquarters” in Berlin. From this base, he will coordinate his first campaigns and anticipate all reactions – from surprised to annoyed. Why are some people not interested in their neighbors or roommates? And how can this be changed and communication encouraged? Jan Köppen dares to try… Köppen also takes a close look at road traffic: why is there so much honking on German roads? And do squeaky ducks help drivers to reduce stress? For MISSION FREUNDLICHKEIT, Jan Köppen reaches deep into his bag of tricks…

MISSION FREUNDLICHKEIT – MEIN 100 TAGE EXPERIMENT is an adaptation of the Danish format 100 DAYS OF BEING NICE and is produced by UFA SHOW & FACTUAL for Disney Channel Germany.
