- DirectorDaniel LeconteStarsElisabeth BadinterFrançois BayrouChristophe BigotWhen twelve cartoons depicting the Prophet Muhammad were published by Denmark's largest newspaper in 2005, European muslim groups denounced the cartoons as insulting and sacrilegious. To everyone's surprise, the protests against the Muhammad drawings took a worldwide scale, even leading to violent demonstrations in several Muslim countries. In France, the satirical news magazine Charlie Hebdo joined the conversation and reprinted the controversial cartoons, causing an uproar among the country's growing Muslim population. Months later, the Great Mosque of Paris, the World Muslim League and the Union of Islamic Organizations of France took Charlie Hebdo's editor Philippe Val to court for defamation and incitement of hatred. Tough Being Loved by Jerks offers a real-time account of the ensuing trial, arguably one most divisive and heated legal proceedings in recent French history. The film features lawyers, witnesses, journalists, editorial conferences, demonstrations of support, as well as the reactions of the prosecutors and Muslim leaders around the world. Given new relevance after the January 7, 2015, attacks at the Charlie Hebdo offices, which left 12 dead and 11 wounded, Tough Being Loved by Jerks also features candid interviews (and rarely seen behind-the-scenes moments) with acclaimed Charlie Hebdo cartoonists, such as Cabu, Charb, Tignous and Wolinski, who were killed on January 7, 2015. As such, the film offers a unique perspective into the current debate around France's founding ideals and its current realities.

- StarsEstelle GalarmeCédric TourbeFrom the Gilded Age to the present day, the history of modern America has been one of wealth and power concentrated in the hands of a few families with enormous fortunes. 120 years ago, a capitalist Eldorado emerged in the USA, paving the way for personalities like Warren Buffett, Jeff Bezos and Bill Gates. How did the power of the super-rich consolidate itself, especially during the economic crisis after 1929 or during Ronald Reagan's policy of deregulation and tax cuts in the 1980s? Using extensive archive footage, this three-part documentary mini-series explores this question and tells in detail the history of American capitalism over a period of 150 years: from Rockefeller to today's plutocrats like Elon Musk or Mark Zuckerberg, to the Wall Street crash of 1929 that triggered the Great Depression to the global financial crisis of 2007/2008.
