La Gestapo, l'arme absolue d'Hitler
La Geheime Staatspolizei, créée par Hermann Goering en 1933, n’est à l’origine qu’une sous-division de la police judiciaire, issue de la police politique mise en place sous la République de Weimar. Après 1933, la Gestapo émerge très vite comme l’instrument de répression privilégié du nouveau régime : dès le 27 février 1933, deux jours après l’incendie du Reichstag, commencent les épurations.

⭐ 6.0Shark Attack Experiment Live
Are sharks really out to get us? Are these predators mindless man eaters demonized by the popular media and movies like "Jaws"? That's the driving question behind this high-adrenaline, two-hour live National Geographic event. Shark Attack Experiment: LIVE! will beam from the world's most shark-infested location off the coast of South Africa. Here, a team of free-diving shark junkies and conservationists put their own safety on the line to run a series of hi-tech tests to separate shark attack myths from realities. Also on location during Shark Attack Experiment: LIVE! are shark attack survivors willing to tell their stories and enter the water, some for the first time since their traumatic encounters. Their objective is no stunt; their goal is to raise public awareness that the world's shark species are being destroyed by over-fishing.

⭐ 7.2Shangku Shelter
Le Zanskar est un royaume isolé du nord-ouest de l'Himalaya indien, où la population locale est enneigée six mois par an. Environ 10 000 Zanskaris vivent dans la vallée isolée. En hiver, les cols de montagne sont bloqués, la route de Jeep d'été ferme et les bus s'arrêtent. Il y a deux décennies, trois amis ont fondé une école de ski - pour permettre les voyages hivernaux dans la vallée, améliorer la qualité de vie et encourager les jeunes à rester au Zanskar en aidant à établir une culture des sports de montagne. Le film raconte l'histoire de cette amitié, de l'école de ski et du développement du ski dans la région. En cours de route, une question plus importante est soulevée. Plus récemment, le gouvernement fédéral a annoncé un important projet de construction de routes qui offrira un accès toute l'année au Zanskar. Comment la nature sauvage du Zanskar peut-elle être préservée? Ce n'est qu'une question de temps avant que la route d'hiver ne soit terminée.
⭐ 7.0The Endless Summer Revisited
A documentary mostly edited together from unused footage from The Endless Summer and The Endless Summer II, this documentary gives further insight into the making and success of the original classic surf documentary. It is written, produced and directed by Dana Brown, son of the director of the first two films, Bruce Brown (who executive produced this film). This film likely will appeal only to hardcore fans of the Endless Summer films, but it does feature more of the gorgeous cinematography for which the earlier films are famous.
