- StarsMichael WoodJohn ChadwickColin RenfrewOver six hour-long programs, Michael Wood marshals the disparate strands of evidence to present as fully rounded a portrait as possible of both the historical and the legendary city of Troy, its central place in Western culture, and the Mycenaean Age itself. From Schliemann's initial cavalier bulldozing of the mound at Hisarlik, to Homer's epics, the Hittite Empire, and the role of slave women, Wood journeys back and forth across the Aegean and elsewhere, from a pre-unification Berlin to Liverpool, to illuminate the dawn of Western literature, myth, and history. Did the Trojan war ever happen, or was the city destroyed by natural causes? Wood doesn't claim to find a definitive answer, of course, but for the viewer it's rewarding enough simply to accompany him on this fascinating journey.

- Waldemar returns to Italy to trace the Italian Renaissance from its perceived origins with Giotto and takes a look at the importance of religious narrative in Italian art. While there were certainly a few aesthetic influences from classical art, the majority of Italian painting and sculpture in the 14th and 15th centuries was created to inspire devotion.

- StarsWaldemar JanuszczakThe sunny landscapes and shimmering portraits of the 19th century impressionists adorn candy boxes and designer T-shirts. But as critic Waldemar Januszczak reveals in this four-part documentary, the artistic movement didn't always enjoy the widespread popularity it has today. In their time, impressionists were artistic rebels who threw out the rules set by Paris's prestigious art salons. As Januszczak visits the studios, hot spots, and rustic vistas that inspired the artists, he sheds light on a motley collection of personalities, from Jean-Frederic Bazille, a gifted, nearly seven-foot-tall painter who helped bankroll his fellow artists, to Claude Monet, whose obsession with water compelled him to build a floating studio. When they banded together for eight legendary exhibitions between 1874 and 1886, they forever expanded the boundaries of art.

- DirectorJohan von MirbachStarsRuja IgnatovaAsdis Ran GunnardottirNikolay StoyanovThe OneCoin scam is one of the biggest financial scandals in history. The cryptocurrency fraud functioned like a gigantic snowball system, designed by a glamorous German-Bulgarian with lots of criminal energy and good connections. The film tells the incredible story of Ruja Ignatova's meteoric rise to become the shining star of the investment world - and her spectacular downfall. On 25 October 2017, she disappeared without a trace. FBI and Interpol are looking for her. Yet there is no trace of her and the money. Ruja Ignatova was a master of self-promotion: at mass events she always appeared in glittering dresses and with shining red lipstick. She promised her gullible followers that she would break the power of the banks - a modern-day Robin Hood. Hear weapon: the cryptocurrency OneCoin. Soon, she promised, OneCoin would make them all rich. But that day never came. Using her extensive network of contacts, she made sure that the scam could continue for three years. Her fans believed in OneCoin like cult members. And some still do because OneCoin is still being sold. Anyone who wishes to do so can invest their life-savings - and lose them. The film shows how easy it is to trick people with the promise of easy money. Or, as the Romans, said: "For greed all nature is too little". A dark, sometimes funny and often absurd fairy tale about greed, avarice and vanity.
