- DirectorSolène Chalvon-FioritiAgainst the stereotypes that present them as eternal victims, four generations of Afghan women tell their stories. They name their torturers, put into words their hopes and their struggles. If their word has been confiscated since the Taliban fundamentalists took over, it was used long before them. From the Soviets to NATO, from the Mujahideen to the short-lived Republic that collapsed in 2021, Afghan women have always been confined to political propaganda, even by their supposed liberators.

- DirectorEtienne de ClerckAre the expiration dates on food packaging reliable, or even credible? When the "best before" (or "use-by") date stamped on the box, wrapper or bottle is exceeded, some choose to throw the product in the trash, others hasten to eat it to avoid waste, thereby defying health restrictions. These two different reactions, however, have the same result: a return to the store to restock. Have these indications, supposed to protect the consumer, become a means of pushing the purchase and accelerating the expenditure cycle? How are these dates defined? What do they reveal about current health anxieties?

- DirectorXavier DeleuJean-Baptiste MaletThe world's most consumed fruit has an untold story. The industrialization of the humble tomato preceded the globalized economy that was to follow. It is now as much of a commodity as wheat, rice, or petrol. The tomato's ability to create strongly identifiable products, such as ketchup, pizza sauce, soups, sauces, drinks or frozen dishes is unbeatable. As early as 1897, ten years before Ford started to mass produce cars, Heinz was already converting tomatoes into standardized cans of puree. They were one of the first companies to understand the power of branding. They banned unions, imposed uniform standards of production and established genetic laboratories that ensured identical tomato plantations all around the world. Today, wherever you are in the world, you can eat the same tomatoes. This film will trace the journey of tomato paste from Africa, Italy, China and America to show the consequences of this global business.
- DirectorÉdouard BergeonEvery year, 600 to 800 French farmers end their lives, because they have debts and no longer see a way out. Christian Bergeon was one of them: in 1999 he committed suicide, 45 years of age. His son Edouard made a documentary about the family trauma and followed Sébastien Itard, an equally affected farmer. This confrontational film, at the same time homage, mourning and prosecution, breaks the rural silence about an unprecedented social drama. During the 1,5 year recording period, Itard committed a suicide attempt, which underlines the urgency of the documentery

- DirectorJean-Christophe KlotzStarsVictor BarbatYves BeigbederAxel FischerIn the summer of 1945, the American authorities instructed two young soldiers, Budd and Stuart Schulberg, to gather visual evidence attesting to Nazi crimes, with a view to the trial against twenty-four dignitaries of the Third Reich which was preparing for Nuremberg. The sons of an eminent producer, already experienced in the cinema business, they must (under the aegis of filmmaker John Ford, head of the Office of Strategic Services, OSS) support the accusation of chief prosecutor Robert Jackson. In four months of high-risk investigation across devastated Europe, the Schulbergs manage to save hundreds of hours of footage, much of it taken by the Nazis, from destruction. Their editing team then worked tirelessly to complete before the opening of the trial on November 21, 1945, films exposing the atrocities perpetrated after Hitler's seizure of power, from the first pogroms to the concentration camp system, and their premeditated nature. Without the help of his brother, who has resumed his work as a screenwriter in the United States, Stuart Schulberg is then responsible, alongside the Soviet Roman Karmen, for filming the main stages of the procedure, a first in the history of justice. . They are only allowed to shoot thirty-five hours of rushes over more than ten months of hearings, but the sound recordings of the entire proceedings will allow Stuart to produce Nuremberg: its Lesson for Today, a documentary that the American authorities, facing to Cold War emergencies, finally decide to bury in 1948.
