- In 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.

- Apostrophes is a French literary television program produced and hosted by Bernard Pivot, broadcast live on Antenne 2 between January 10, 1975, and June 22, 1990, every Friday evening at 9:40 p.m. Defined by Bernard Pivot as a "magazine of ideas based on books", the program is gradually becoming a cultural magazine devoted to editorial news, if not to literature taken in its broadest sense. The program offered open discussions between four or five authors around a common subject, but also individual interviews (called "Grands Entretiens") with a single author when the latter had acquired an important place in the academic or literary field. In fifteen years of existence, Apostrophes has become the emblematic literary program of French television at this time, almost in reverse of the initial project. It owes this to a combination of favorable factors: advantageous programming at prime time, continuous support from the directors of the Antenne 27 channel, and an almost new French audiovisual landscape when the program was created. The personality of its presenter, the initial choice of the format of the program (debate around a theme that changes each week), and the heterogeneity of its speakers also play a preponderant role in the recognition of Apostrophes with the general public, book professionals but also literary "all-Paris".

The two of them begin to grow close and then, without realizing it, they come to love each other immensely.

- Coronado: The New Evidence explores one of the longest-standing archaeological mysteries in the United States-the land route taken by famed explorer Francisco Vazquez de Coronado who from 1539-1542 was attempting to find vast wealth and fame while traveling north from Mexico. Through the intrepid and tireless work of Arizona-based Dr. Deni Seymour, we now know where Coronado's expedition first crossed into what would later become the continental United States. The filmmakers have exclusive access to the Coronado archeological site where our cameras have been rolling for two years as Dr. Seymour unearthed hundreds of Coronado artifacts including a breathtaking 15th-century "wall gun" that is the first firearm to enter what is now the United States. This discovery has dire, catastrophic far-reaching implications-not only for US history-but for the indigenous people, the Sobaipuri, and their descendants, the Wa:k O'odham, who first encountered Coronado. The Wa:k O'odham soberly and thoughtfully share their reaction and meaning of this breakthrough discovery by Seymour. Coronado was not exempt from the well-known litany of crimes committed by white Europeans against American Indigenous peoples. Dr. Seymour also discovered evidence of a Sobapuri revolt pre-dating the American Revolution, making it the first real American Revolution in what is now the U.S. This single battle kept white explorers out of the region for another 150+ years. Perhaps the biggest discovery by Seymour is that this Coronado site is the first established Spanish colony in the Southwest United States. This villa/town pre-dates San Agustín and Roanoke. Deni J. Seymour, Ph.D., has research affiliations with the University of Colorado Boulder and the University of Arizona and at Jornada Research Institute. She is the author of Where the Earth and Sky Are Sewn Together: Sobaipuri- O'odham Contexts of Contact and Colonialism (The University of Utah Press, 2011), as well as other books.
