Vast, wild, yet extremely fragile. The coldest place on our planet is also one of the most affected by global warming and needs to be protected. The expedition focuses on exploring, documenting, and surfing in the South Shetland Islands and the Antarctic Peninsula, in the area known as Domain 1, which is being pushed for Marine Protected Area (MPA) status. Protected areas are very important for mitigating climate change and, in this case, also for regulating human activities such as concentrated fishing. This film helps us understand the importance of this area and the threats affecting it.

Specialized dating sites exist, avoiding any reference to sex, even though it is an important part of the relationship. With courage, these five women candidly describe what their lives as "sugar babies" are like.

When it doesn't matter where this war is going or if there is an enemy at all. And the war has been going on since the creation of the world. And it multiplies. And her name is "Bitch".

The 1001 Faces of Palmyra

Apr 17, 2021

Two thousand years ago, it was a flourishing city in the middle of what is now a Syrian desert. At the crossroads of trade routes, Palmyra attracted caravanners from Mesopotamia, India and China. In what remains of its ruins, rediscovered by Europeans in the 17th century, its numerous necropolises bear witness to a prosperous past. Carved in limestone in the first centuries of our era, the faces of the representatives - men, women and children - of its greatest families adorn the walls of its tombs. Since 2012, Danish archaeologist Rubina Raja has been leading a long-term project to find, document and retrace the family trees and daily life of these Palmyrenians.
