Saint Demetrios the Myrrh-Streamer

The film presents the power of a steel, completely sinful Rome and at the same time, the courageous attitude and varied Christian action and mental superiority of the qualified military leader of Thessaloniki. Dimitrios' fiery deception and persecution of the faithful propose evangelical truth and morality, sacrificing everything for the faith, mainly leading young people to it. The patron saint of Thessaloniki remains a role model.

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".
