Secrets of Our Living Planet

In this series, naturalist Chris Packham reveals the natural world in a way that you’ve never seen it before. For him, what is really beautiful about nature is not the amazing animals and plants that we share the planet with but the hidden relationships between them. These relationships may sound bizarre but without them, no life would be possible. Discover previously unknown relationships, like why a tiger needs a crab; or why a gecko needs a giraffe. Each week Chris visits one of our planet's most vital and spectacular habitats and dissects it, to reveal the secrets of how our living planet works.

Bezem door de wallen

De Bezem door de Wallen is a triptych about the municipality's approach to tackling crime and decay in Amsterdam's Red Light District. The plan is to close a large number of prostitution windows and coffeeshops in the city center via Project 1012 and to consolidate the remaining ones. In the words of the municipality, these sectors are criminogenic, or susceptible to crime. Documentary filmmaker Frans Bromet follows window operators, prostitutes, and owners of coffeeshops, gambling halls, and sex theaters.

Terra X - Die Geschichte des Essens

There is hardly anything we do more frequently and with more passion than eating. Thus the history of the food is rich in anecdotes, oddities and knowledge from cultural history to hard science. The taste of humans was very different at all times. Why do we eat what we eat and how has it developed? Star cook Christian Rach goes on a journey through the cultural history of cooking and eating. It is a journey in three courses - through kitchens, gardens, bakeries, palaces and huts, to chefs, cheese makers and winegrowers, experimenters and inventors. He learns how stone age people have cooked their soup. Why Europeans once were afraid of the potato. Why there used to be coffee-policemen in Prussia. And how things like baking soda and canned food, dishwashers and table manners were invented.
