In creating The Breach I began to think of the symbiotic agreement Native Peoples had with salmon for millennia and how that has been compromised. There are hopeful restoration projects for repairing salmon runs - including the largest dam removal in US history on the Elwha River. But in thinking of what remains, my mind turned to Bristol Bay Alaska - where I'd spent those college summers 20 years before. Bristol Bay still has a perfect, healthy fishery, where 30-60 million wild salmon return each summer. They feed the land, animals and people of Bristol Bay, as they have for time immemorial. And they feed the world. Half the world's sockeye salmon supply comes from Bristol Bay. In the middle of all this, a Canadian mining company is attempting to construct North America's largest open-pit copper mine in the heart of Bristol Bay. I sought out tribal leaders, scientists, policy makers, fishermen, artists, authors and chefs - all with a shared knowledge and passion for wild salmon as cultural treasure, mystery from the sea and food for the planet. Many spoke of salmon surviving ice ages and earthquakes for millennia. Our shared journey is in asking if wild salmon have a chance of surviving us.

Twenty Five people are convicted of murder and fourteen of them are sentenced to hang, one lawyer is assassinated and the other chooses exile in this dramatic story behind a notorious murder trial that marks South Africa's transition from the apartheid era to a new South Africa. Told through the perspectives of defense lawyer, Andrea Durbach, The Independent journalist, John Carlin, and the accused themselves, the story unfolds to reveal a landmark victory in legal history's biggest case on extenuation. A timeless and inspirational story about the fight for justice in a country where injustice was enshrined in law.

Award-winning director Saul Landau embarks on an in-depth exploration of Miami-Havana politics through the story of the Cuban 5, a group of spies sent by the Castro government to infiltrate right-wing terrorist organizations in Miami. When the spies turned over evidence of US-based terrorism to the FBI, they themselves were arrested, tried, and convicted in Florida courts while the confessed anti-Castro terrorists live freely in Florida.

Niels Deboos is fed up to the back teeth. Eurobonds, bankruptcy, corruption and reinless capitalism. The whole misery goes against the grain for Niels. He decides, to turn his back on the Federal Republic of Germany. Admittedly, without leaving the country. Instead, he succeeds to bring his weird plan to life. Together with Christian Darre and a handful of allies he founds his own state. Right outside of Berlin. The self organized society does not stay undiscovered for very long. But not only from the outside, also from the inside it starts to ferment. The collapse is beyond remedy. And a surprising breakthrough.

With exceptional access over a twelve month filming period, Haryun follows the children of three migrant worker families in Guangzhou, China, during their final year at an unofficial 'Minban' primary school. The country's 'hukou' (household registration) system excludes migrant children from public education in its cities, relegating them to second-class citizenship. As Haryun captures the children's passions, struggles, frustrations and dreams she also observes the life-changing decisions they must take at this tender age - to return to their hometowns for further education, struggle to continue their studies in the city or enter the underground child workforce aged only fourteen.
