ANIMAL DESTINIES
It is one of the savannah's most beautiful, powerful, and feared animals, but a curse also marks it.
While everyone around him is surrounded, the leopard is desperately alone. Only during childhood does he experience real moments with others like a brother or a mother. Then, a great and true solitude settles in. The reproduction time is so short that one cannot speak of a partner.
This film looks at the daily life of this magnificent predator from this original point of view, which corresponds to its true nature.
LOVE AND SEX IN SOUTH KOREA [52’]
An episode from the series
LOVE AND SEX
South Korea is the least fertile country in the world, and its population is estimated to halve by the end of the century. The cause is an ultra-competitive society obsessed with professional success. As a result, 75% of men and 68% of women aged 20 to 44 are single.
As finding a soulmate is not easy, South Koreans have become the world's most prominent cosmetic surgery consumers, and marriage agencies abound.
Faced with these pressures and constraints, many give up: no love, marriage, or children. For this generation, life can be successful in other ways. In return, sex appears to be a less complicated pastime than love.

An episode from the series
THE INCREDIBLE AFRICAN WILDLIFE
We often think that in the savannah, there is only one law: that of the predators.
But in truth, these moments of spectacular fury are brief, with interludes of peace, harmony, and even tenderness. There are also the mothers’ infinite attention and patience, the fathers’ benevolence, the games played by the siblings, and the couples who bear witness to their mutual attachment.
This film invites us to discover another savannah that may be a little idyllic but undeniably soothing.

THE CORAL OASIS OF THE TUAMOTU [52’ or 43’]
An essential sanctuary of biodiversity

They host some of the planet’s richest wildlife, which is still resisting the upheavals of the modern world.
SPAGHETTI WESTERN: COLTS, SLAPS AND BEANIES [52’]
The inspiration for great contemporary directors
The myth of the cowboy was born in the American studios, but when we talk about Westerns, one name keeps coming up: Sergio Leone, the great architect of the so-called "spaghetti" Western, because it was made in Italy.
This genre, initially intended to be purely mercantile by producing low-cost imitations of American Westerns, facilitated the emergence of new talents.
The spaghetti western became a true genre thanks to directors such as Leone, Corbucci, and Solima, as well as the music of Ennio Morricone. It will then, in turn, influence international cinema, notably by inspiring great contemporary directors such as Quentin Tarantino.
PANDA KINGDOM [3x52’]
A unique film on the cutest of mammals
This film tells the incredible story of the giant panda’s revival in the wild.
Over seven years, the team tirelessly followed their survival, reproduction and reintroduction into their natural habitat.
An exceptional adventure marking the most extensive continuous filming project since the scientific discovery of the species 150 years ago.
BREATHE IN BREATHE OUT [10x26’]
A yoga retreat that turns into a nightmare
Sophie and Vicky are two young women who move in the same circle of friends but do not like each other. The only thing they have in common is their date of birth. For their birthday, they receive a joint gift from their friends: a "yoga healing" course in the forest. Worst of all, they have to share the same room.
The retreat takes a nightmarish turn when a participant is found dead, apparently murdered. Two policemen arrive, but one of them seems more interested in protecting the property owner's reputation than solving the crime.
Forced to stay on during what they consider to be a poorly conducted investigation, Sophie and Vicky must pool their efforts to identify the killer and save their skins before joining the list of victims.
