The geniuses of the world studied

1 The billionaires who made our world

Canvas VRT 9:20pm – 10:10pm

If we believed ten years ago that the interests of the world were at the heart of the new rich people, our view of Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk has changed a lot. This documentary series takes a close look at them, starting with Microsoft founder Gates.

2 The legend of the model

NPO 3 9:10pm – 9:55pm

Another four-part documentary series, and here also a great one is rejected: the Dutch documentary maker Nadiah Shah shines a light on the dark side of the modeling life. In the first episode she finds out what the industry does to the psyche of the models who are often very young.

3 A dog loves

Canvas VRT 10:10pm – 12:40am

The debut of the Mexican Alejandro González Iñarritu (A bird man, Babel) direct hit: the director was hailed as the Latino Tarantino. A dog loves is a powerful, gray mosaic story of three broken lives in a throbbing Mexico City.

4 The woman in the lake

Available to watch on Apple TV+

Natalie Portman’s first episode is a hit on television: a murder investigation is an excuse to explore racism, sexism and class relations. And all in a magnificent view. Our reviewer loved it.
