Architekten des Klangs

At the opening of the Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg, not only the spectacular architecture but also its outstanding acoustics were celebrated - and Yasuhisa Toyota became the darling of the media. Ennobled from "ZEIT" to "Dr. Sound", the likeable Japanese is one of the world's most sought-after stars among acousticians. In addition to Yasuhisa Toyota, these include above all Jürgen Reinhold and Martijn Vercammen, who made Daniel Barenboim's heart's desire for better acoustics in the magnificent building a reality in the recently reopened Berlin State Opera.

Stonewall 50: Where Next for LGBT+ Lives

The Stonewall riots were a series of spontaneous demonstrations by the LGBT+ community that began on June 28, 1969 in the Stonewall Inn, Greenwich Village. This was a turning point in the gay liberation movement and is often seen as the start of the modern fight for LGBT+ rights and freedoms in the United States. 50 years on, for many around the world this remains a dream. Filmed in Honduras, Zanzibar, Taiwan and England, the documentary provides unique access to the poignant personal stories of those facing challenges due to their sexuality or gender identity.

Abraham and Sarah II. Hosting the Gundagundo Pilgrims

The film is part of the Guardians of Productive Landscapes series and a sequel to 'Abraham and Sarah I: Creators of a productive landscape'. A Tigrean farmer and his wife, who host pilgrims to a festival at the Gundagundo monastery, have gained the biblical names Abraham and Sarah. We see Sarah and other women prepare food and drink for the pilgrims, while Abraham and other men erect a shelter. At dawn dozens of pilgrims descend the steep escarpment, eventually arriving at Gundagundo where celebrations are in full swing. We witness highlights of the festival, and the pilgrims' return to the homestead of Abraham and Sarah. Here they receive food, drink and shelter, and sing the praises of their hosts. At midnight visitors arrive with an old, sick monk. Before the guests depart next morning, a monk thanks and blesses Abraham and Sarah.

Phantom RAF - The unsolved Herrhausen case

On November 30, 1989, Alfred Herrhausen, CEO of Deutsche Bank, set off in his armored limousine for Frankfurt. At 8:34 a.m., the attack took place. Herrhausen, a top manager with threat level one, was killed instantly. Near the scene of the crime: paper with RAF emblem. Hidden in the bushes: the detonating mechanism of a bomb. An unprecedented, technically sophisticated attack. To this day, the case raises questions: Who were the perpetrators? Why was Herrhausen targeted? To what extent are international terrorist groups involved in the case?
