- Follows an abusive man when he speaks out, positioning himself as a critic of violence.
- How can we best meet every earth citizens need for healthy food facing our limited resources? Regarding the almost 10 billion humans living on earth by 2050, we have to decide now how we want to shape the future of agriculture.
- There is a lack of basic knowledge about the menstrual cycle. However, various fields of research are beginning to take an interest in it and ask questions. Freed from myths and prejudices, the menstrual cycle is being re-evaluated and no longer seen as something weakening, but as something strengthening.
- Why do we throw away so much food? And how can we stop this kind of waste?Amazing but true: On the way from the farm to the dining-room table, more than half the food lands on the dump. Most of it before it ever reaches consumers.
- Documentary accompanies five special people in the realization of their very personal and extraordinary life plan. These visions of a different life are intended to create alternatives for themselves and for society.
- The Hambacher Forest in west Germany has been occupied by environmentalists many times, most recently in autumn 2018, when energy giant RWE tried to secure its interests and clear the area in order to expand its neighbouring lignite mine.
- In Europe, one third of working people are in a precarious employment situation. In spite of having a job, and sometimes even several, the end of the month is difficult, and housing, food and heating become delicate issues. These workers form a new social class called "precariat" by economists, a neologism born from the contraction of "precariousness" and "proletariat". The rise in food and energy prices has considerably increased the economic insecurity of large sections of society, which until now belonged to the middle class. While the upper third of society has become richer despite the crisis, the lower third has fallen further behind. Women, who occupy the most precarious jobs, are clearly more affected than men.
- How can cities be made more livable, how can the air be cleaned, how can solutions be found to cope with rising temperatures due to climate change, and how can space be created for a growing population? These are just some of the challenges faced by cities around the world. A pioneer in this field since the 1960s, Copenhagen continues to think of the city off the beaten track and off the streets saturated by cars, while alternative projects are now also multiplying in other European capitals, notably Barcelona, Berlin and Paris. Further afield, in Singapore, the city continues to grow in density, but in height and without engines.
- The German tax investigator Rudolf Schmenger discloses a case of corruption involving the German tax authorities and a bank.
- Through the stories of three prominent Ukrainian politicians, from 2013 to the present day, we witness the country's struggle for democracy, autonomy and geopolitical stability. We follow our protagonists as they evolve from activists to politicians in a fragile democratic system, to defenders of their country against the Russian invasion.
- Industrial agriculture ensures our food supply and has made vegetables, fruit and meat cheaper. But we are feeling the consequences more and more clearly: our drinking water is polluted with nitrates, insects are dying, and the soil is leaching. That's why not only environmentalists and consumers, but also the farmers themselves see that things can't go on like this. What alternatives are there to industrial agriculture? Is "organic for all" possible? Or can conventional agriculture also be made more sustainable in crucial respects? Scientists also have high hopes for the new "permaculture" method of cultivation, which is based on ecological principles. Can it make a decisive contribution to an agriculture of the future? For one year, the film accompanies farmers in Germany and France who are looking for alternatives. Sven Wilhelm from Renchtal in the Black Forest has converted his vegetable cultivation to organic. In the conversion phase, he needs staying power to survive. Michael Reber from Schwäbisch-Hall is taking an intermediate route. Instead of spending more and more money on mineral fertilizers and sprays, he is trying to increase soil fertility on his fields with special humus fertilizers. And in Normandy, Perrine and Charles Hervé-Gruyer are pursuing an experiment called "permaculture" that significantly increases productivity despite the absence of chemicals. But it also shows that without a change in the EU's subsidy rules and in consumers' buying behavior, a turnaround in agriculture cannot be achieved.

- For many farmers in Ukraine, the war not only means daily danger to their lives when they cultivate their fields. It also means that grain is rotting in their silos while there is hunger in other parts of the world. "Over our heads the missiles rush every day, the alarm does not stop. But we worry more when it gets quiet, then a missile may hit here." Nadja manages a 4,000-hectare farm near Mykolayiv, now steering her tractor through the shell casings lying in her field.
