An unsung pioneer of 1970s Texas Progressive Country, Steven Fromholz had a knack for snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. Revered by legends like Willie Nelson, Lyle Lovett & John Denver, he remained commercially unknown. He sought redemption on the Rio Grande as a river guide until a debilitating stroke erased his musical memory, stripping Fromholz of his artistic identity. With an almost obsessive persistence bolstered by newly discovered archives as well as never-before-heard recordings, this intimate and impressionistic portrayal unveils the evolution of Fromholz, and reshapes the notion of success and artistic fortitude.Echo

How many times have you called someone to fix a breakdown and found a woman at the door? Probably not many. Irantzu Varela and Andrea Momoitio are two trailblazing journalists who decide to transform a century-old bridal atelier into the city's first feminist cultural center: La Sinsorga. They aim to complete the renovation using only women and use the project to create a database of women in the heavily male-dominated construction sector.

Over the course of a year, we witness the transformation unfold through a narrative where the everyday realities of construction coexist with a performative universe, revealing their fears and desires.Nuremberg

Nuremberg
1996
star 10On 20 November 1945, in what had once been the spiritual centre of the Nazi Empire, the first Nuremberg trial opened. Nuremberg examines the first trail in detail: the scale and speed of the US-led effort to place the Third Reich's leaders in the dock; the charges brought against them; the courtroom drama; the final judgements. Of the 21 defendants, three were acquitted, seven given jail sentences and the remaining eleven sentenced to death, among them Hitler's right-hand man, Hermann Goering. This programme also explores the twelve subsequent trials against the backdrop of the emerging Cold War and the shifting allegiances of allies and enemies in the immediate post-war period.
