World history is in the making when EU chief negotiator Robert Cooper has to settle an agreement on stable co-existence between Kosovo and Serbia. Stakes are high but in spite of the seriousness of the negotiations, they turn out to be surprisingly funny and carried out with style and charm by these three fantastic characters. It's the last territorial conflict of Europe and it's crucial for the EU to prove its ability to make peace in its own backyard. This is diplomacy behind the scenes.

Following the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Japanese Empire rapidly surged out into south-east Asia and the Central Pacific. Triumph & Defeat '41 - '45 tells the story of the initial Japanese successes and then the relentless fight back by the Allies across the vast distances of the Pacific. Allied Air Force & Navy aircraft supported the advance through the Solomon, Gilbert, Marshall and Philippine Island groups.

Mataderos é um populoso bairro de Buenos Aires, e este documentário narra uma passagem famosa de sua história. Em outubro de 1981, o público cantou a Marcha Peronista em um jogo de futebol entre Chicago e Defensores, e por isso foi espancado e detido pela polícia. Mas como não havia veículos suficientes para levar a multidão, o chefe da operação os fez "trotar" até a delegacia.
Mataderos is a neighbourhood in the City of Buenos Aires, and this documentary tells a famous incident in its history. On October 1981, the crowd sang the Peronist march during a soccer game between Chicago and Defensores, and for this they were beaten and arrested by the police. But there were not enough vehicles to transport all the detainees, so the chief of the operation made them trot up to the police station.

At the Nuremberg Trials, Albert Speer was convicted of 'war crimes' and 'crimes against humanity' and sentenced to 20 years' imprisonment. His expressions of regret and acceptance of responsibility for his part in the German war effort, allowed him to narrowly avoid the hangman. However, he has created much historical controversy, claiming total ignorance of the excesses of the Nazi regime, while at the same time being one of the most influential men in the Third Reich. Was he really the 'Good Nazi' as he portrayed himself?

In a deeply personal exploration of post-Soviet Russia, filmmaker Olga Darfy reflects on the Moscow rave scene and the friends from her youth that were at the forefront of the subculture. In 1991, the collapse of the USSR effectively ushered a new era for Russia. Eager to find a means of self-expression given their new-found freedom, punks, rebels, avant-garde artists and squats join at the first Gagarin Party just weeks after the collapse of the USSR, marking the birth of a new nightlife subculture. With rare archival footage and photographs, Darfy recalls the momentous night celebrating with the heart and soul of the rave scene, Vanya Salmaksov. But in 1998, Vanya mysteriously disappeared without a trace. 20 years later, Darfy embarks on an odyssey in search of Vanya, collecting testimonies along the way from friends, DJs, promoters, and avant-garde artists, including Oleg Kulik (The Dog Man), and Afrika (real name Sergei Bugaev). Filled with bittersweet nostalgia, I am Gagarin is an intimate portrait of a time and youth movement that could have only exist during the post-Soviet transition in Russia.
