JO de Berlin 36, la grande illusion
IMDB 0 | Mar , 2015
In August 1936, the Olympic Games, orchestrated by Joseph Goebbels, the Third Reich's Minister of Propaganda, took place in Berlin. This was a vast charm offensive designed to present Germany as a nation that respected the Olympic principles of equality and fraternity. This documentary reveals the political strategies of the Third Reich, which benefited from the complicity of the International Olympic Committee in thwarting calls for a boycott by several countries. Once the games were over, Nazi policy intensified. How could the civilized world turn a blind eye to this "great illusion"? Gretel Bergmann, the German Jewish athlete at the center of a bargaining chip between the German authorities and the US government, and Noël Vandernotte, who won a bronze medal in rowing, share their stories.Joshua: Teenager vs. Superpower

IMDB 0 | Dec , 2015
An intimate portrait of Russian opposition leader Boris Nemtsov — once Deputy Prime Minister and “an heir of President Yeltsin”, later an uncompromising adversary of Putin — that was assassinated near the Kremlin in February 2015.

This is a story how a journalist assignment turns into a genuine friendship.The first is farce
IMDB 0 | Oct , 2023
This film is a comment on a current political scenario, where history is in Flux. In a documentary disguise, this film tries to revive faded memories of bygone public figures like Kartar Singh Thatte and other right-wing hardliners... and through the collective memoir, draws a trajectory of a political narrative to understand the 'paradox of tolerance'.Nastassja Kinski, une vie à soi
IMDB 8.5 | Aug , 2025
In the 1980s, Nastassja Kinski was an international star and a true sex symbol. In just a few films, she established herself as one of the most talented and promising actresses of her generation. Discovered at age 13 by Wim Wenders and revealed by Roman Polanski at 18, she built her career around the images that directors projected onto her, seeking to break the stereotypes that people wanted to box her into. However, after a 10-year career, Nastassja Kinski disappeared, leaving us with a mystery.24 Hours: Assault on the Capitol
