- The Tara is a small river on the outskirts of Taranto, a town founded 3000 years ago on the Italian shores of the Mediterranean Sea. It takes its name from Taras, the mythical son of the sea god Poseidon. The river's waters are much appreciated by the locals, who credit them with magical healing powers. Starting from these idyllic images, the film takes us to a city and land that have been sacrificed in the name of progress. The steel plant just a few kilometres away has claimed many lives and created deep fractures within Taranto's social fabric. Despite this dark presence, several of the city's inhabitants are fighting to keep up the hopes of a city that used to be known as "the Pearl of the Mediterranean". Directors Volker Sattel and Francesca Bettin reject the dynamics of the investigation, instead adopting for their film the form of an open conversation with the people who are struggling daily for the well-being of this territory and its people. In this improvised journey, the camera captures moments in which traditions and myth clash with economic development, mistaken for progress. With attention and empathy, TARA thus captures the contrasts and the subtle hues of a betrayed yet defiant place.

- An ugly moment in a Berlin bar knocks Yasmina from her usual path and launches us into a series of encounters in a precarious world, beyond the neon and the billboards. Inspired by Schnitzler's scandalous 19th century play, Reigen, ATOMEN is a story set in contemporary Berlin, exploring the longing for love and connection, and the alienation of modern life. Using the structure of Schnitzler's play, we explore the inadequacy of language, the devastation of our societies, and the epic in the everyday. Our characters stumble through life, looking for meaning, in a world where we are told everything is available, but people are often lost and lonely. Their dilemmas are small, but reflect the ripples of seismic decisions made in a boardroom somewhere by someone.

- The world out there on stages is a man's world. Or is that just what they want us to believe? What if the true King of Rock and Roll is a Queen? Listen closely and you hear Memphis Minnie's guitar in Chuck Berry and Eric Clapton, Sister Rosetta's unbridled spirit in Jerry Lee Lewis, Big Mama Thornton's growl in Elvis. Still the fact that women rocked the stages from the1950s on has been successfully pushed out of the collective memory. Time to pull out the roots and tell the other side of the story. The women we meet on our journey devote their life's to rock music, each of them is an icebreaker and they are as inspiring as different. 'You have to be like a man. But I can do it, I am a woman with balls', is Linda Gail Lewis' Credo, while Kathy Valentine of The Go-Go's considers herself a 'rare bird'.

- "Portavoce" (Megaphone) traces back the evolution of a culture of protest in Romania, developing in recent years, through the voices and opinions of key actors involved in social mobilization, in direct actions and in the development of a cultural scene favorable to political involvement. Throughout the movie, we placed an emphasis on interviews with activists and "affiliates" of the "alternative scene" in Bucharest. Three main protest waves were presented and critically put in context, through interviews and protest footage. At the end of January 2017, mass protests against a government ordinance emerged in Romania and soon became the biggest protest wave this country had seen in over 25 years. These protests highlighted a trend of discontentment of the young generation, discovering an interest in politics and demanding its share in political decision-making. This movie's starting aim was to find out if the perceived simultaneity of cultural consumption within an urban "alternative" scene, and the processes of politicization associated with, is at the core of social mobilization in Romania. As we understood it, the events of 2017 were the climax of a development characterized by a succession of protests, during the last four years, parallel to an increasing consumption of non-mainstream culture. In 2013, an environmental campaign against the 'Rosia Montana' mining project, marked the moment when the collective identity of this group was shaped, a collective identity further strengthened during the protests of November 2015, following a fire that killed 65 people and destroyed the Bucharest alternative concert venue 'Colectiv'. The movie offers a dynamic composition of in depth analytical discussions of highly relevant societal trends, lifestyle elements and fast moving imagery of protests and artistic events (music and performance art).
- Nearly 3,600 years ago, the eastern Mediterranean was shaken by the eruption of the Santorini volcano, north of Crete, which destroyed several port cities and covered the entire region in a thick layer of ash. This cataclysm, long considered the trigger for the collapse of Minoan civilization, still raises many questions, which a vast international deep-sea drilling project is attempting to answer. Prepared over a period of six years, Expedition 398 brought together a team of scientists from eight countries aboard a research vessel equipped with state-of-the-art technology. Its aim: to take samples from the Santorini caldera in order to establish the age, history and dangerousness of the volcano.
- Es ist die Geschichte eines historischen Verrats und seiner blutigen Folgen: Der filigran bestickte Teppich von Bayeux zeigt minuziös das Geschehen, das 1066 zur Schlacht bei Hastings führt, bei der der normannische Herzog Wilhelm den angelsächsischen König Harald II. besiegt und den englischen Thron erobert. Bestsellerautor Ken Follett, der den Teppich für seine historischen Romane eingehend studiert hat, sieht in der lebendigen Darstellung den ersten Zeichentrickfilm der Geschichte - entstanden in einer Zeit, als in Europa die Königreiche der Ritter erblühten. Der bald tausend Jahre alten textilen Geschichtsstunde - eine National-Ikone Frankreichs - werden zusehends fast magische Qualitäten zugesprochen: Schon Napoleon wollte seinen Generälen anhand des Teppichs beweisen, dass die Eroberung Englands weiterhin möglich sei. Weitgehend unbekannt hingegen ist, dass die Nazis es auf den Teppich abgesehen hatten, nachdem Hitlers Armee 1940 Frankreich besetzt hatte. Für sie galt Wilhelm der Eroberer als Verkörperung des eigenen Heldenideals. Der D-Day der Alliierten im Juni 1944 vereitelte in letzter Sekunde den Plan, den Teppich nach Deutschland zu entführen. Der vor dem neusten Stand der Wissenschaft mit aufwendigen Spielszenen und neu entdecktem Archivmaterial realisierte Film des preisgekrönten Dokumentarfilmers Wilfried Hauke spielt über Ort und Zeit verteilt: in der Normandie zur Zeit Wilhelms und seiner Frau Mathilde von Flandern, auf dem Schlachtfeld von Hastings 1066, in der napoleonischen Ära und im Zweiten Weltkrieg, als sich in Frankreich das Ende von Hitler-Deutschland anbahnt.
- Based on Schiller's play of the same name, Don Carlos was written for the Paris Opéra in 1865-66 in the tradition of a French grand opera. Repeatedly revised and performed in Italian as Don Carlo, the opera is seen here in the version that Verdi prepared for Modena in 1886. In many respects, this is Verdi's most ambitious and most forward-looking work.

- Sie ist eine der drei südeuropäischen Halbinseln und 500.000 Quadratkilometer groß: die Balkanhalbinsel. Poetisch gesehen bildet sie die geografische Grenze zwischen dem Okzident und dem Orient. Lang verschmähte, unbekannte Schöne. Vielen nicht bewusst, umspülen fünf Meere ihre zerklüfteten Gestade: Das Schwarze-, Marmara-, Ägäische-, Ionische- und Adriatische Meer. Ihr Name verweist auf ihren natürlichen Reichtum: BALKAN - "Berge mit vielen Wäldern". Tatsächlich ist die Balkanhalbinsel eine Schatzkammer ökologischer Vielfalt. Der Balkan ist allerdings nicht nur ein Faltengebirge. Vor allem besticht er durch seine unbekannte Seite: voller versteckter und unberührter Naturschönheiten, eine geheimnisvoll-archaische Welt. Noch ist der Balkan touristisch marginal erschlossen. Sein Reichtum an ungezähmter Natur ist ein Erbe, welches bis zum Zerfall Jugoslawiens nie geplündert wurde. Weder durch wirtschaftliches Wachstum noch Ausbeutung. Erst seit Ende des Bürgerkriegs im ehemaligen Balkanstaat müssen sich die Länder in der Region vermehrt um Schadenbegrenzung bemühen. Denn der Balkan will Brücke sein. Eine GRÜNES BAND EUROPAS, ein Naturkorridor zwischen den ehemals verfeindeten Staaten im europäischen Gefüge. Eine filmische Reise zum noch wilden Teil Europas - über Alpen, Seen und Meere. Gedreht in 4K. Als 6-teilige Reihe entwickelt, konzipiert und umgesetzt von Jeremy JP Fekete.
