Flight over paradise (Kenya, Canada, Bolivia, Madagascar)
🛩️On the wing
Flight over paradise (Kenya, Canada, Bolivia, Madagascar)
On our planet, there are places that people cannot easily reach, inaccessible spots where nature reigns supreme... places where the environment is vast and awesome, where the sense freedom is deep. In these wild decors that harken back to the dawn of our world, the plane is very often the only means of moving about. Its role is vital: it allows the inhabitants of these villages at the ends of the world to feel less isolated. In Kenya, Bolivia, Canada and Madagascar, local pilots take us up in their planes to discover exceptional sites that are still preserved and untouched... Lost places where tight communities live with a relationship to time that is far from ours...

In the heart of the mountains
⛰️ In the heart of the mountains
Snow-capped peaks in the background. Green undulating meadows filled with flowers, this is the eternal image of mountain pastures that we holds in our imagination. But the heart of our mountains is first and foremost a place where men and women live and work to maintain this vast space but also to make use its resources. Some have chosen to maintain the age old traditions, to exploit resources, yet never over-exploiting them, to take advantage of the best nature has to offer while respecting the inherent balances. They are breeders, landscapers or producers; they make their livings from these landscapes while at the same time ensuring their preservation and their future. From the Alps to Corsica, via the Pyrenees, we take you to meet these enthusiasts who carry our mountains in their hearts!

William Christie, The art of giving
🍃 William Christie, The art of giving
American, William Christie is one of the great ambassadors of French culture and the French way of “feeling art”, as he likes to say. His career as a harpsichordist, conductor, musicologist and teacher remains closely linked to France. It is at the origin of a remarkable musical adventure: his rediscovery of baroque music. This film seeks to give voice to one man’s unique point of view and to lift the veil on the path of this enormous talent, who is as lucid and charming as he is inaccessible..

The climate challenges (Germany)
🍇 Worldwide Wine Civilizations - Season 2
🇩🇪 The climate challenges (Germany)
Franconia is a small and little-known enclave of vineyards located in the heart of the German region of Bavaria, famous for its fields of hops and many breweries. Planted in Roman times on the sunniest slopes, Franconia’s vineyards grow here on particularly steep terrains and produce a powerful and mineral white wine.
Today, these vines are threatened by the effects of climate change. Erosion and drought jeopardize the unique character of the Franconian grape varieties. Winegrowers and scientists are mobilizing to safeguard this singular wine heritage.

WHEN ARABS DANCED
🎥 When arabs danced
A fundamentalist hates life. For him, it presents temptation, a moving away from God and a loss of time before the celestial paradise with its rivers flowing with milk of eternal taste, its streams of wine, its delights and its virgins. Life is the product of disobedience and this disobedience is the work of the ARTIST. The fundamentalist resents the artist, who gives life to matter and leads pure souls away from paradise with sick ideas, a devilish drawing, a bewitching song or an evil dance… The artist is, therefor, the devil and in order to be able to kill him, the fundamentalist labels him the enemy of Allah. Formerly carefree, the Arab-Muslim world has now become the epicenter of a blind and often violent fundamentalism. Pressure from the fundamentalists overwhelms that of the moderates. The voice of reason struggles to be heard. In the face of this hopeless realization that is threatening our most basic freedoms, Jawad Rhalib questions Islamic Fascism and allows the voice of reason to speak in order to break what is now: “Be an artist and shut up!”.

🦐SHELLFISH, FROM THE SEA TO OUR PLATES
In France, the annual shellfish consumption is nearly 10 kilos per person. But behind this growing trend, we know relatively little about the origins of these products: how are they caught, raised and packaged, or what's happening between the ocean and our table? We set out to meet the fishermen and fish farmers who are constantly surpassing themselves to meet the growing demand.
