Восточный Берлин, ноябрь 1984 года. За пять лет до своего низвержения восточно-германское правительство обеспечивает свои притязания на власть беспощадной системой контроля и сыска. Преданный партиец капитан Герд Вислер надеется подняться по служебной лестнице, выполняя работу по сбору улик против драматурга Георга Дрaймана и его подруги - знаменитой театральной актрисы Кристы-Марии Зиланд.
Однако он не ожидал, что погружение в мир объекта наблюдения меняет и самого сыскного агента. Погружение в жизнь других - в любовь, литературу, свободу мысли и слова - приводит Вислера к острому осознанию скудости его собственного существования и открывает ему совершенно новый образ жизни, противостоять которому становится всё сложнее. Но когда система уже запущена, она не может быть остановлена. Опасная игра началась…

Борьба венгров за независимость и жестокость, с которой их восстание было подавлено советскими войсками, вызывают в душах юных школьников протест.

Tommy Robinson goes on the offensive by documenting how his own “hit piece” on his character was being constructed by the taxpayer-funded BBC for their popular investigative news special “Panorama.” In the film he manages to capture footage of the blackmailing of his former employees to invent stories, along with an organization—known as “Hope not Hate”—on set with the BBC, intimidating ex-employees of Robinson during interviews. The host of “Panorama” at the time of filming is caught on camera casually using racist and homophobic slurs during a £220 champagne lunch with the same ex-employee they had planned to coach for a fake interview in which the BBC would possibly edit in which to make it appear as, “a gender, a sexual thing against Tommy Robinson,” according to the host. Within 24 hours of releasing the film, social media giant Facebook made a public statement of their own and removed Tommy Robinson’s accounts permanently.

Lauded as the most influential thinker of the Western world, psychology professor Jordan Peterson has become a polarizing paradox. After sparking both outrage and support for his stand against Canadian human rights legislation in late 2016, Peterson quickly transformed into a famous public intellectual and internationally best-selling author. SHUT HIM DOWN offers an intimate look into the controversy that started over alternate gender pronouns and left us with two stories about Peterson: Is he a heroic cultural warrior who pushes boundaries and transforms people's lives for the better? Or is he a bigoted peddler of regressive ideas that cause harm?

In the realm of contemporary music, Adam “Nergal” Darski surely needs no further introduction. Yet the guitarist and singer has even made inroads into general pop culture and shaped social discourse, all the while not moving away an iota from the underground ethos his ongoing career is based on. Rising from his humble beginnings in Cold-war Poland to global fame with his band Behemoth, striving for musical excellence throughout the ignominies of life-threatening illness and dubious legal battles, staying deeply spiritual and focused during even the most casual appearances in mundane limelight, it is safe to say the 1977-born has many faces, the sum of which defies categorization. Satanist or dexterous money spinner? Academically certified historian or shallow media figure? Inspired and inspiring spokesperson of a generation or mere agent provocateur? Make your guesses...
