Nothing has spurred the search for extraterrestrial life as much as the discovery of thousands of Earth-like planets by the Kepler probe. On this basis, we can now calculate how many stars in the Milky Way could have a planet like ours: 1 billion. If we could prove extraterrestrial life, this would fundamentally change the understanding of our world, our life and our self. Shall we try to contact? Or should we hide?

Politicians, economists and the media are obsessed with economic growth. But why do we still cling to this concept? Clearly it is impossible to have infinite growth on a finite planet. In SYSTEM ERROR award-winning director Florian Opitz (“Speed, In Search of Lost Time” and “The Big Sellout”) examines the fundamentals of capitalism. He reveals unexpected correlations and lays bare the pathological nature of the current system.

Both an apocalyptic and redemptive view of the human condition

In the Ruhr district of Germany, we witness the comeback of a small river and an entire landscape. For decades, the Emscher was the most polluted river in Europe. Now, it’s being returned from an industrial sewer to a natural river system. With the help of waste water treatment plants, liberated river beds, and returning animal species, this unique natural region is blossoming.
