21:15 Guatemala – Against Forgetting

The civil war in Guatemala, which lasted from 1960 to 1996, resulted in the death or disappearance of more than 200,000 people. In 2012, a group of families of the victims took the state of Guatemala to the Inter-American Court of Human Rights about it - and won.
Among the reparations imposed on the Guatemalan government was a stipulation that it should finance the production of a film about the victims. "Guatemala: Against Forgetting†is no ordinary documentary film, because its genesis is closely intertwined with the violence it describes: the horrors of the Guatemalan civil war which claimed more than 200,000 lives. For the first time a group made up of families of the victims succeeded in having a state found guilty in a court of law. Even though only 26 of the 45,000 crimes could be prosecuted, the plaintiffs still won their case. Among the various forms of reparations was the production of a documentary film to be financed by the state, but the state has refused to accept the court’s judgement down to this day.
In the end the families took matters into their own hands. And this is their film. They joined director Claudio Zulian and a group of politically active artists in an intense debate about how the horrors of a civil war which lasted for 36 years should be portrayed, even though few traces of it remain. The question was: should the violence be recorded on film for future generations and, if so, in what form and to what degree? "Guatemala: Against Forgetting†is an impressive and painful documentary film that probes the boundaries between dealing with the past, remembrance, and justice.

Valletta was the first modern city to be designed entirely on the drawing board. The foundation stone was laid on 28 March 1566 by Jean de la Valette, the Grand Master of the Knights of St. John. The film tells the story of this city, which is inextricably linked with the history of the Order
In 1530, the island was granted to the knights as a fief by the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V. Only 35 years later, Ottoman Turks laid siege to the island. But in spite of the overwhelming strength of the attackers, the Christian knights managed to hold on to Malta and force the Turks to withdraw. Out of sheer gratitude to the "saviors of the Christian West," Pope Pius IV helped them to secure the cliffs, and the Knights’ Grandmaster Valette laid the foundation stone for the city that was to be named after him in March 1566. Over the decades, the knights built a gigantic fortress that was to deter would-be attackers for hundreds of years. The film tells the story of Valletta, the first city of the modern age, designed entirely on the drawing board

It’s a ticking bomb for the environment: After the end of the Second World War, the Allies sank their surplus munitions off the coasts of Europe - 1.6 million tons in German waters alone. And in addition to conventional explosives, there are also highly toxic substances on the seabed, including Sarin, a mustard gas containing arsenic.
After 1945, the Allies disposed of their surplus munitions off the coasts of Europe. Other countries where wars have occurred - especially Vietnam - face the same problem. It is still not really clear how much environmental damage has actually been caused in those countries. The documentary shows in an astonishing manner how much military pollution the wars of the 20th Century have left behind. Although it could create enormous problems for humans and the environment, the problem has yet to be fully scientifically investigated.

Sergey Zimov is a Russian geophysicist. He and his son Nikita want to stop the thawing of the Siberian permafrost due to climate warming. The frozen soil in Siberia not only contains the bones of ancient mammoths, but microbes that - when aroused from tens of thousands of years of dormancy - could push the global climate to an irreversible tipping point.
Zimov is an internationally renowned scientist with links to Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts. He and his son Nikita have long warned about the drastic consequences of thawing permafrost. It is a vicious circle: the current climate warming is causing more and more of the soil to thaw. This releases the microbial metabolic products COâ‚‚ and methane gas, which cause still more global warming. The two men are hoping to defuse this ticking Ice Age time bomb with their Pleistocene Park. The idea behind it is to recreate the conditions that existed 20,000 years ago, using reindeer, bison and muskoxen to turn the tundra into a subarctic steppe. And if the geneticists at Harvard can manage it, the nature reserve might even feature a giant herd of mammoths.

Eva Braun was Adolf Hitler's secret mistress for more than 13 years. To this day she is viewed as a naïve, apolitical appendage to the dictator and mass murderer. She only became publicly known after her death in 1945, when she and Hitler committed suicide in a bunker in Berlin. This two-part documentary calls into question the image of the vapid young woman at the Führer's side.
Eva Braun met Hitler in 1929 and became his lover when she was just 17 years old. During the years of their relationship, she evolved from an average middle class girl to the uncompromising partner of the mass murderer. She remained true to Hitler until death. On 30 April 1945 Hitler and Eva Braun committed suicide in the bunker beneath the Reich Chancellery in Berlin. A day earlier, the dictator had married her. But who was this 'bride of evil' really? Hitler's architect Albert Speer referred to her after the war as one of the "disappointments of history". Kept out of the public eye, she spent most of her time in Munich or at Hitler's Berghof residence in the Alps. There she lived officially as the dictator's private secretary. Historian Heike Görtemaker has tracked down and assembled the puzzle pieces of Eva Braun's life in a groundbreaking biography. Behind the assumed gaiety, the author finds a resolute woman who pursued her goals with tremendous toughness right up to her death. For this documentary, filmmaker Michael Kloft conducted detailed interviews with Görtemaker and evaluated the many private films made by Eva Braun as well as the countless photo albums she compiled.
