This documentary is a patchwork of material that gives insight into the mind of filmmaker, poet, and writer Thomas Brasch, who died twenty years ago. Material from his personal video diary, spliced with filmed interviews and archive footage of his plays, add up to a portrait of a Brasch who is strange, creative, and challenging.

We seldom speak about young people who choose to stay in rural areas. For them, living in the city is synonymous with stress and superficiality. The less they go, they better off they are. Journalist Camélia set off to the French countryside to meet with Jérôme, Guyliane and Mélanie – three young people who opened up about their daily lives, far from all clichés.

We often speak about young people leaving rural areas, but what about those who choose to stay?

They tell us about what it’s like to live with that label each day, and the preconceived ideas it invites. Which of these are true and which are false?

When you think urban gardens and vegetable patches, you might think locally produced food and self-sufficient cities, but feeding a whole city with just a few rooftop vegetable gardens was never going to be likely. So why are more and more of them springing up? Could these green spaces also be used for education, therapy and social integration? Laetitia Limmois investigates.

Urban gardens are unlikely to feed a city, but could they be used for education and social integration too?

One hundred years ago, on February 2nd 1922, James Joyce’s Ulysses was published by Sylvia Beach in a small bookshop in Paris. The book, which consumed 7 years of Joyce’s life, years in which his family’s circumstances were very difficult, would have a profound and unprecedented impact on the literature and culture of the century to follow. 

Though Ulysses was banned initially in the US and UK, Joyce’s epic was soon celebrated as a masterpiece of modernism.
