Big Pacific
NATURE AND ENVIRONMENT The Greedy Ocean, NZ, RC 2017
The giants of the Pacific have developed features that allow them to meet their insatiable food needs. The fact that the blue whale, the largest animal in the world, can feed on tiny crustaceans only works because it devours vast amounts of krill with its huge mouth with every bite.

How Russian is the East?
DOCUMENTATION Russia and Us, D 2020
The attempted murder of Kremlin critic Alexej Navalny rekindled a discussion: How should we deal with Putin’s Russia? How should we behave towards an increasingly aggressive neighbor in the east? Should the Nord Stream 2 Baltic Sea pipeline be completed? While many federal politicians are campaigning for a tougher course against Russia, leading East German politicians are pleading for leniency in cross-party unity. Is it true that the East Germans as a whole are more understanding towards Russia and Putin’s policy?

Putin’s Russia
PORTRAIT From Spy to President, UK 2020
–
Vladimir Putin has been shaping Russian politics for two decades. This three-part documentary sheds light on his way from a Leningrad backyard to the Moscow Kremlin. Film writer Nick Green focuses particularly on those aspects that make Putin’s presidency and his path to get there look like an espionage thriller. The first part describes how Putin first became an officer of the Soviet secret service KGB and later in Moscow director of the domestic secret service FSB as well as a close confidante of Russia’s first president Boris Yeltsin. He named him his successor.

Putin’s Russia
DOCUMENTATION Targeting opponents, GB 2020
Who is putin Many asked themselves this question when, after a steep career in the secret service, he was elected President of Russia in 2000. The second episode shows how media and PR consultants shaped the stranger into the man we know today – and who demonstrates his power by all means. In 2006 the spectacular assassination of ex-Russian agent Alexander Litvinenko hit the headlines. The Kremlin critic was poisoned with radioactive polonium. Putin’s government didn’t want to know about anything – but Litvinenko is only one of many victims.

Putin’s Russia
DOCUMENTATION The Eternal President, AR 2020
The third part shows how Vladimir Putin returned to the presidential office after a four-year forced break in 2012, despite fierce resistance. Again, allegations of corruption were raised. The “Putin system” was seen by many as a system that turned away from values such as democracy and the rule of law. Those who denigrated the government lived dangerously – including the politician Boris Nemtsov, who was shot on a bridge within sight of the Kremlin.

Germany’s cities with Harald Lesch
DOCUMENTATION Glanz und Gloria, D 2015
How did Germany’s most famous residential cities, Munich, Mannheim, Dresden and Berlin come about? In the beginning there was always the decision of a self-confident ruler to build a city. And so Munich and Berlin came into being, but also Mannheim and Dresden in no man’s land – always on a river. It was ideal cities that grew up here: planned in detail, they should embody the vision of their masters – and thereby attract wealth, power and creativity. In addition to the palaces, there were soon representative museums, universities, promenades and parks: the German royal seat, for centuries the epitome of culture and lifestyle.

Germany’s cities with Harald Lesch
DOCUMENTATION Progress and Misery, D 2015
The third episode of “Germany’s Cities” documents the dramatic history of the industrial cities and their share in the economic rise. Ruhr area, Berlin, Wolfsburg, Eisenhüttenstadt. How did Dortmund and Essen once become the engine of German prosperity? Why did the Prussian provincial metropolis Berlin attract millions of workers and become a cosmopolitan city? The stories of the rise and fall of our industrial cities are stories of the struggle for survival in the age of industrialization.

LANDSCAPE City, D 2017
The first of three new episodes “Terra X: Germany from above 4” elicits fascinating perspectives and secrets from our cities. Did our ancestors already live in densely populated places today? And do trade routes from the past still play a role? From the air, the traces of the past can be linked with those of the present and tell some of the city’s history anew.

LANDSCHAFTSBILD Land, D 2017
From a bird’s eye view, the natural beauties of Germany are presented from their most spectacular side. The second episode “Terra X: Germany from above 4” leads across the country. Untouched nature is a rarity, most natural spaces are shaped by people. The Monte Kali, for example, the highest artificial mountain in Germany, or the strict symmetry of the hop fields in the Holledau – these works unfold their own magic from above.

LANDSCAPE River, D 2017
The third and last episode shows the topic of river and sea in a very real, but also in a figurative sense: from the archaeologists who dive for stone-age pile dwellings on Lake Constance to the water police, who monitor ship traffic on the Elbe by helicopter, from the departure of the legendary Queen Mary, who every time attracts tens of thousands of onlookers to Hamburg, to monitoring the gas pipelines in the Ruhr area.

The Rhine
LANDSCAPE OF Volcanoes and Giant Rafts, D 2016
Ancient elephants on the riverbank, a tsunami in the Rhine Valley, Roman occupiers and giant rafts that go as far as Holland. The documentary tells the eventful history of the Rhine. His path leads from the Alps to the North Sea. Even in ancient times, electricity was fiercely contested. But soon it becomes the center of economy and civilization with cities like Cologne. And with the Nibelungen saga to the place of fairy tales and myths.
