Sagrada Familia, le rêve achevé de Gaudi poster
8.0

North of Barcelona’s Old Town, in the Eixample district, the organically shaped towers of the Sagrada Família soar into the sky. Inside, visitors are immersed in a floral and botanical world, as if carved in stone. In February 2026, the cross was placed atop the most recently completed main tower—and since then, the Sagrada Família has been the tallest church in the world. Why has it taken over a century to complete Gaudis life’s work? What inspired him during the design phase, and above all: How does one complete a work without its creator? To explore these questions, the film delves into the world’s oldest active construction site and traces its history as well as the most recent architectural decisions. Experts in history and architecture discuss Gaudí and his work. The film also highlights the challenges associated with continuing construction and how the Catalan master’s successors interpreted and implemented this visionary project.

Eiffel's Race to the Top poster
7.4

Behind the iconic Eiffel Tower lies the story of an incredible challenge to erect a thousand-foot tower that went far beyond a design competition, and marked a major turning point in engineering history. It was the beginning of radical transformation where iron was pitted against stone, engineering against architecture, and modern design against ancients. Press campaigns, lobbying, public conferences, denigration of opposing projects, bragging about big names - all participants engaged in a fierce battle without concession. Using 3D recreations, official sources (reports, letters, drawings...) and intimate archives obtained from their descendants, this film will bring to life this vertical race through a fresh and visual way to mark the centenary of Eiffel death.

Louis Pasteur and Robert Koch: great scientists, national icons, opponents in the service of research. One is a Frenchman and chemist and is already in the second half of his life. He is honored worldwide with numerous prizes for his discovery of the rabies vaccine. The other was a still unknown German country doctor in his 30s, whose discovery of the tuberculosis bacillus was later awarded the Nobel Prize for Medicine. From 1881, the two were bitter rivals. Their 20-year rivalry resulted in spectacular progress in the fight against deadly epidemics.

Chambord: The Castle, the King and the Architect poster
7.8

Chambord, the most impressive castle in the Loire Valley, in France, a truly Renaissance treasure, has always been an enigma to generations of historians. Why did King Francis I (1494-1547), who commissioned it, embark on this epic project in the heart of the marshlands in 1519? What significance did he want the castle to have? What role did his friend, Italian genius Leonardo Da Vinci (1452-1519) play? Was he the architect or who was?

Chile: A Troublesome Legacy poster
8.0

The rejection of the project for a new, more socially just constitution by the Chilean people in 2022 has reignited the conflicts that have plagued the country for five decades. On September 11, 1973, in a bloody military coup, General Pinochet ended the socialist revolution launched by President Salvador Allende, legitimately elected in a democratic election. The subsequent dictatorial regime with fascist features brought great violence and terror to the Chilean people. The accompanying neo-liberal economic system, which made the country one of the richest in the region, led to an ever-widening social gap in society, which in turn fell into a kind of passivity. In 2019, long after the dictator was voted out of office and the democratization that followed, a new social movement is shaking the prevailing order. From Allende's socialism to Pinochet's fascism, this historical fresco in documentary form returns to the origins of the rupture.
