Out of Many, One
"E Pluribus Unum" is the national motto of the United States, which means, in Latin, "out of many, one". It is a reference to the 13 independent colonies that united to form the country, but it can also be linked to the fact that the US has been, since its creation, a nation of immigrants who have come from all over the world (such as England, Italy, France...). In this original 34-minute Netflix documentary, not only is this origin analyzed, but also the stories of immigrants who today go to the country in search of a dream or fleeing a harsh reality.
Documentary
Dorival Caymmi - Um Homem de Afetos
An irresistible journey through the universe of the singer and composer that revolutionized the song in Brazil and influenced generations of musicians, paving the way for movements such as Bossa Nova and Tropicália.
The Falling Sky
Documentary about Indigenous peoples’ profound connection to nature and their struggle against deforestation, a grave threat to their way of life and the ecosystem they call home.
Edita
Edita - Receiving a special mention from the jury at the FICIQQ, Chile, in 2022, this biographical documentary delves into the life of a rebel, feminist and single mother, whose story had been hidden by both her family and official history. It tells the intriguing story of Edita, a Trotskyist woman, Bauhaus student and persecuted by Nazism, in the context of the military dictatorship in Chile during the 1980s.
What Jennifer Did
Netflix's true crime documentaries are as successful as they are predictable: a case is presented, something doesn't add up, a new revelation emerges, controversy or shock ensues. The same goes for What Jennifer Did, a documentary that delves into the controversial case of Jennifer Pan in Canada during 2010. If you remember it from the news, you already know what the story is about. And if not, you'll soon find out: the documentary follows the same true crime formula, so expect twists and surprises in the narrative.
