In German kitchens, over 7 billion eggs are cooked every year, more than 2.3 million tons of meat are consumed, 29 billion liters of milk are drunk and more and more fish is being eaten. But where does all this come from? Is the fish caught by a white-bearded captain with a crew of children? Does the chicken live on an idyllic farm with a rooster on the manure? And are pigs actually always happy and cows purple and colorful? The reality is different - a world full of battery hens, huge fish farms and slaughterhouses. Animals are production units - without a soul, without the right to a life. The main thing is cheap. This documentary provides unsparing insights into the depths of the factory farming industry and reveals the true origins of our food, free from suggestive advertising messages.

Generation

A chronicle project about children born on the eve of 2000. 12 episodes of 44 minutes. "In 1999, the world was preparing for the new millennium. So, to the change of epochs, generations. Many considered the change of three nines to three zeros a radical scrapping of the times. It was then, on the scrap, that the foundation of our television project was laid," says Vitaly Mansky. - Then, in 1999, we chose almost at random several dozen women living in Russia at that time and at that time preparing to become mothers. Then everyone was eager to find out what their life would be like in the new millennium, how the history of their country, city, and, of course, their families, their future children would develop.

Goering: Nazi Number One

This is the story of an incredible rise to power, the most comprehensive documentary on Hermann Goering ever made. He was a man of many faces: vain, ambitious, more brutal than any other of Hitler's minions, yet the most popular Nazi official of all, at times even more popular than Hitler himself. He embodied the jovial side of the Third Reich. Yet the same man who organised dissolute bacchanals also founded the Gestapo, set up the first concentration camps, and had his own comrades murdered in the purge of 1934. These unique personal records form the largest and most important single film find from the Nazi era in past years.

Hermitage-Niks: A Passion for the Hermitage

HERMITAGE-NIKS--the five-part, in-depth series version of THE HERMITAGE DWELLERS-- is not necessarily about the art that resides in the world renowned museum, but about the people who work in the Hermitage. These "Hermitage-Niks" all have their own very personal reasons for considering the palace of Catharine the Great their "home." For them, it is a safe haven that quite literally has managed to keep the tumultuous Russian 20th century history outside its walls: from the Revolution, the terror of Stalin, WWII, the harsh post-Soviet years - all these events have left their mark on the museum. What starts out as a playful kaleidoscope of people and events in the museum gradually unfolds into a poignant account of how the dwellers' pain is transformed by their intimate relationship with a piece of art.
