"Apathy-Rise" Niche Trio (ft. Pierre Janssen) / "Deadlines" Niche Trio

"On this view of human freedom, our place in the universe is quite distinctive"

“Apathy-Rise,” a parody of Coldplay’s Paradise by Niche Trio featuring Pierre Janssen, humorously explores existential themes from The Stranger and Antigone. It contrasts Meursault’s indifference with Antigone’s defiance, highlighting their opposing responses to absurdity and fate. Janssen’s feature adds commentary on their shared tragic outcomes, blending humor with literary insight. “Deadlines,” a parody of Drake’s Headlines, similarly examines existential struggle and inevitability in both works. Through clever wordplay and philosophical reflection, Niche Trio (Tysei Murao, Felix Janssen, Gabriel Reque Cruz) delivers an engaging and concise take on these timeless tragedies.

The War on Democracy

Set both in Latin America and the United States, the film explores the historic and current relationship of Washington with countries such as Venezuela, Bolivia and Chile. Pilger says that the film "...tells a universal story... analysing and revealing, through vivid testimony, the story of great power behind its venerable myths. It allows us to understand the true nature of the so-called "war on terror". According to Pilger, the film’s message is that the greed and power of empire is not invincible and that people power is always the "seed beneath the snow".

Control Room

A chronicle which provides a rare window into the international perception of the Iraq War, courtesy of Al Jazeera, the Arab world's most popular news outlet. Roundly criticized by Cabinet members and Pentagon officials for reporting with a pro-Iraqi bias, and strongly condemned for frequently airing civilian causalities as well as footage of American POWs, the station has revealed (and continues to show the world) everything about the Iraq War that the Bush administration did not want it to see.
