A documentary that traces the lives of men and women persecuted by the Third Reich because of their sexual orientation. Beginning with the social and political context of the 1920s, when European society still "tolerated" homosexuality, it details the mechanisms of repression and brings to life the hell experienced by the victims in the concentration camps. It also recalls the long road traveled by the victims to obtain the decriminalization of homosexuality and recognition of the harm suffered during this dark period in history. While the film traces the martyrdom of homosexuals and lesbians, it does not fail to place this story in a wider perspective and to bring together in a single memory all the victims of Nazi cruelty.

Refined, often millionaires, drug trafficker lawyers evolve within a territory where law, organized crime and corruption meet. They are smugglers, the visible actors of the collusion between criminal organizations and the legal, political and financial structures of countries crushed by narco-violence. This investigation penetrates into the depths of drug trafficking through a little-known angle, that of justice, and aims to deconstruct the preconceived idea of the drug trafficker as the sole responsible for violence. "If you kill, call me" debunks the myth of drug trafficking by penetrating, through drug trafficker lawyers, into the heart of the legal system to reveal its deep complicity with organized crime.

The European Union is a constantly challenged system, starting with the question of language. With 24 languages represented, how to speak with one voice? Shielded from public view in small caulked booths, European interpreters witness on a daily basis all major current challenges in international negotiations. The Diplomats of the Shadows is a reflection of the cultural and linguistic diversity essential to the proper functioning of the European Union’s democratic system, which has no equivalent in the world. From the war in Ukraine to the energy crisis, and the migration policy, this film takes us into the current geopolitical issues through the lens of European interpreters. In this immersive experience within the European institutions, the director raises a fundamental question: in these times of upheaval, how to preserve unity in diversity, the very essence of the European construction?
