Enhanced – Die Dopingspiele: Zwischen Medizin, Moral und Milliarden

The controversial Enhanced Games challenge the foundations of modern sport by allowing athletes to use performance-enhancing drugs in pursuit of world records and prize money. As investors, athletes, scientists, and anti-doping officials clash over the project's ambitions, questions emerge about human enhancement, medical risks, commercial interests, and the future of elite competition. Between technological progress, ethical boundaries, and billion-dollar business opportunities, the debate raises a fundamental question: if doping becomes the norm, what remains of sport?

The Girl

Director Alfred Hitchcock is revered as one of the greatest creative minds in the history of cinema. Known for his psychological thrillers, Hitchcock’s leading ladies were cool, beautiful and preferably blonde. One such actress was Tippi Hedren, an unknown fashion model given her big break when Hitchcock’s wife saw her on a TV commercial. Brought to Universal Studios, Hedren was shocked when the director, at the peak of his career, quickly cast her to star in his next feature, 1963’s The Birds. Little did Hedren know that as ambitious and terrifying as the production would be to shoot, the most daunting aspect of the film ended up coming from behind the camera.

Duerers Heritage

Dammbeck, himself an alumnus of the Leipzig Academy for Graphic and Book Design, presents the origins of the new German realism developed by the so-called Leipzig School, which took place in the context of socialist-realist dogma in the GDR before the Wall was built in 1961. After the Wall came down in 1989, what happened to the major Leipzig School painters Werner Tübke and Bernhard Heisig, who had been called “Dürer’s red heirs” by West German journalists in the 1970s? In the film, Tübke, Heisig, and former GDR officials who were involved with the cultural scene in Leipzig at the time talk about modernism, conformism, political pressure, party discipline, personal claims, and fading memory. The documentary paints an insightful, often critical picture of early East German art history.
