Victoria por el dominio aéreo
This is a unique film in Disney Production's history. This film is essentially a propaganda film selling Major Alexander de Seversky's theories about the practical uses of long range strategic bombing. Using a combination of animation humorously telling about the development of air warfare, the film switches to the Major illustrating his ideas could win the war for the allies.

Under the Sun
Durante un año esta película sigue la vida de una familia normal de Pyongyang cuya hija es elegida para formar parte de la "Unión de Niños". Las explosiones ritualizadas de color y alegría contrastan marcadamente con la pálida realidad cotidiana, que no es particularmente terrible, sino bastante surrealista, como una vida típica vista "a través de un espejo".
Una Obra del Pueblo
Una mirada, desde el asombro y la admiración, por quienes construyeron el AIFA.
The Wall
Like the best USIA films, The Wall distills political events into an emotionally clear and compelling ideological "story". In 1962 Walter de Hoog gathered footage from U.S. and German newsreel sources and crafted this taut short film about the first year of the Berlin Wall. Straightforward, keenly balanced narration portrays Berliners as "accepting the wall but never resigned to it". The extraordinary footage of the first escapes was propaganda enough-- His challenge was to make the politics human.
Bwana Kitoko
Bwana Kitoko (swa. 'handsome young man') is a 1955 Belgian documentary directed by André Cauvin. It shows the official visit of king Baudouin of Belgium to the Congo and Ruanda-Urundi.

Las Hurdes
Cortometraje documental que hace un retrato de Las Hurdes (Cáceres), una de las regiones más pobres y menos desarrolladas de la España de 1932. La insalubridad, la miseria y la falta de oportunidades provocan la emigración de los jóvenes y la soledad de quienes se quedan en esta desolada región extremeña.
Railway Station
Kieslowski’s later film Dworzec (Station, 1980) portrays the atmosphere at Central Station in Warsaw after the rush hour.
Here Is Germany
A "know-your-enemy" propaganda film similar to "Know Your Enemy: Japan" and "My Japan", films about Japan with the same objective. It contains a history of the prelude to WW II, the death camps and other Nazi war crimes, and commentary on the character of the German people. Directed by Frank Capra, this film is in essentially the same format as his "Why We Fight" series. It was intended to be shown to American troops participating in the invasion and occupation of Germany. But by the time it was ready, events had overtaken it -- Germany was already well on its way to falling -- so the film was shelved. Although it is readily available for public-domain viewing on the Internet, it has never been widely distributed or shown.

A Hero's Death
It was the biggest escape in the history of the Berlin Wall: in one historic night of October 1964, 57 East-Berliners try their luck through a tunnel into West Berlin. Just before the last few reach the other side, the East German border guards notice the escape and open fire. Remarkably, all the refugees and their escape agents make it out of the tunnel unscathed, but one border guard is dead: 21-year-old officer Egon Schultz.

Die Bauten Adolf Hitlers
Nazi Third Reich propaganda film that used architecture as a statement about "racial accomplishment," and so called "racial superiority." Hitler claimed that between 1934 and 1940, the Nazi rule of Germany had produced architectural uniqueness, and this film was produced to shown to attempt to validate that. The opening montage gives a survey of earlier Gothic and Baroque structures in the country as an example of "architectural superiority" that the German race was said to be the sole inventor of; then moves on to deride the recent construction of the Bauhaus school (with a racially motivated score of Jazz music) and an example of German "architectural decay." Then proceeds to show off buildings constructed by the Nazi and an architectural revival, to "last 1000 years," Film also spends a great of time dwelling on massive and "busy" monuments that had been erected all over the county.
