In half a century, Dubai has transformed from a small pearl-fishing port into one of the most prosperous and futuristic cities on the planet, rivaling New York, London, or Paris. With the war waged by the United States and Israel against Iran, this new Eldorado now faces the gravest crisis of its existence. Will the city of the future withstand this new threat?

Behind the skyscrapers and the glamour, the city operates like a private company, ruled without checks or balances by its emir. A capitalism without democracy, where millions of foreigners have no right but to work.
The film delves into the inner workings of this autocratic regime, held up as a global model, and questions its viability at a time when Dubai is cited as an example for the reconstruction of Gaza.

Greenland’s strategic location and mineral wealth have made it a geopolitical hotspot, drawing interest from the U.S., Europe, Russia, and China. As tensions rise under Trump’s second presidency, Greenland is worried. How far will he go, and how will Europe respond?

Greenland is the land of all paradoxes. The largest island in the world, with its 2.2 million square kilometers covered 80% by ice, is also one of the least densely populated territories on Earth, with barely 57,000 inhabitants. Mainly living off fishing, tourism, and Danish subsidies, yet sitting on a potential treasure of... We are talking about 25% of the world's hydrocarbon reserves, the third-largest uranium reserves, and 20% of rare earths... An icy Eldorado that today sparks all sorts of ambitions. Greenland has become one of the hotspots where the future of our multipolar world is being shaped. This is what the film will explore, addressing both its economic and commercial challenges, as well as its geo-ecological and military implications.
 

First there was Big Tobacco, now it’s time for Big Food. The first lawsuits were filed a couple months ago. Children are at the heart of the matter since it has been revealed that the junk food industry targeted them with dangerously global sophisticated marketing methods.

After Big Tobacco, it is Big Food's turn now. In the United States, the first lawsuits are being filed, and they show a global reality: for more than thirty years, the giants of the food industry have been secretly tightening their grip on children. 
 
From North America to the Southern Hemisphere, all the way to Europe, a whole generation grew up under the grip of the junk food industry. Child malnutrition is no longer defined by thinness but by obesity. It is a quiet pandemic, fueled by increasingly sophisticated and intrusive marketing campaigns, from chemical conditioning to social media addiction.
 
Lawyers have unearthed previously unpublished documents that expose the industry's methods in every detail. Secret archives and eyewitness accounts form the backbone of this documentary and shed light on three decades of struggle. 

Massive pollution, labor exploitation, corruption, privatization of public land and the destruction of marine ecosystems, a two-part, 45-minute investigation into this secretive and extremely powerful industry, which welcomes 30 million passengers each year and generates $75 billion in revenue.

From corporate headquarters in Miami to the power circles of Washington, D.C., and across the Caribbean, Europe, and Asia, this documentary thriller traces the hidden networks where law firms, exotic flags, and offshore companies intertwine in a meticulously orchestrated web. While passengers disembark in the Caribbean or Northern Europe, workers speak out about grueling schedules and constant pressure, and experts reveal the extent of the environmental impacts caused by major cruise lines—a lucrative and rapidly growing industry.

A dive into the world’s biggest cocaine-producing country, this investigation reveals the underground networks ruling a country on edge and the dynamics behind a chaos fueled by growing global demand.

Through a thrilling investigation that takes us into the impenetrable world of drug trafficking in Colombia, we follow the main sources of world cocaine production, which have poisoned the country for more than 50 years. Thanks to exclusive sources (go-fast crew members, journalists, politicians, incarcerated drug lords…), the investigation reveals the inner workings of a business that is thriving more than ever. A sprawling system that is once again leading Colombia towards instability while the United States are strengthening their presence and influence in the region.

China maintains that it is a peaceful power and neutral in other countries’ conflicts. But the country has a long history of aggressive expansion and has also suffered from the belligerence of European powers.

Dès son retour à la Maison Blanche, Donald Trump a confié les rênes de son ministère de la santé à un homme ouvertement vaccino-secptique : Robert Kennedy Jr, neveu de l’ancien président JFK.

Leur alliance politique scellée durant la campagne de 2024 a donné naissance au mouvement “MAHA” - Make Amerca Healthy Again -, petite sœur du mouvement MAGA de Donald Trump, censé rendre l’Amérique saine à nouveau.
Poussé par un sentiment anti-vaccin de plus en plus répandu au sein de sa base électorale depuis la pandémie de Covid 19, Donald Trump a confié à RFK Jr la mission de réformer la politique vaccinale des Etats-Unis. Depuis un an, ce dernier a réduit les recommandations vaccinales et les programmes de recherche sur de nouveaux vaccins mais il a aussi lancé une purge au sein des agences de santé publique tout en accusant les vaccins ARN Messager d’être dangereux pour la santé.
Face à cette révolution MAHA de nombreux scientifiques traditionnels, marginalisés par le nouveau ministre de la Santé américain, sonnent l’alarme. Ils craignent le retour de maladies contagieuses mortelles disparues depuis des décennies. C’est particulièrement le cas dans les États républicains comme la Floride qui se veut un laboratoire MAHA, galvanisé par un discours anti-vaccin désormais poussé jusqu’au sommet de Maison Blanche.

In Mariupol, 1300 kilometres from Moscow and in Ukrainian territories occupied by Russia for four years, people pay in roubles and their passports are now Russian. The Kremlin is rebuilding the city at break-neck speed as part of the Russian federation with no room for Ukrainian culture.
