Sinopsis

Russia is a highly developed, wired, and educated nation, but endures third-world levels of corruption and a repressive, autocratic government. Many Russians explain this paradox by citing the Russian soul, a unique national mindset, born out of their turbulent history that wants dictatorship. Is that possible, or are free speech and democracy universal values?

Election campaigns and hotel beds, protest rallies and office routine, train compartments and courtrooms, night walks and police vans – you have never seen any politician so close. This is a story how a journalist assignment turns into a genuine friendship.

El judío eterno
Repugnante documental antisemita que alterna imágenes rodadas en la Polonia ocupada con diagramas animados y fotografía de personalidades judías del mundo de los negocios y la cultura, mostrando a los hebreos como una raza degenerada y diabólica, empeñada en dominar el mundo. Combina imágenes de archivo (foto fija, noticiarios, secuencias de películas de ficción) con tomas realizadas en la Polonia ocupada. En conjunto, se trata de un documento absolutamente revelador sobre el proyecto antisemita nazi, en el que unas espeluznantes imágenes del sacrificio de animales según la ley Kosher (mientras la voz en off denuncia que la crueldad sobre los animales es incompatible con la sensibilidad del pueblo alemán) dan paso a la brutal secuencia final, en la que se anuncia la destrucción de la raza judía en Europa.

Sassnitz vs. Trump: The Dispute Over Nord Stream 2
Sassnitz is a small coastal town at the Baltic Sea on the Island of Rügen. In its vicinity are the world-famous chalk cliffs, a tourist magnet. The Mukran Port is also part of the municipality. The overseas port is the starting point for the construction of Nord Stream 2, a natural gas pipeline that connects Germany directly with Russia. In 2020, the port town hit the international headlines. Even the New York Times reported and cited Mayor Frank Kracht as a staunch opponent from the northeast German province against the rumbling America of Donald Trump. The reason is the undisguised threat from Washington to ruin the international port economically if the natural gas pipeline continues to be built from there. Many jobs and the region's economic stability are at risk. Reporter Klaus Scherer documents the case, questions experts as well as those affected and looks at the behavior of national politicians towards the USA and how they react to the interference in internal affairs.

It is the history of the theater group university and, through it, the history of theater in Portugal, revealing two remarkable decades of the History of Portugal. Through the Academy of Coimbra, the documentary reproduces student life, the position of women in society, and the change in mentalities of being and being in the world. It reproduces the existing censorship and the fight against the dictatorship, the resistance to an exhausted regime, as well as the emerging contradictions of the democratic revolution.

It carries with it the possibility of the theatrical and civic formation of thinking bodies, constituting a proper ball of a possible model, generation by generation, between studies, theater, and social drama.
