- Following a catastrophe on Earth, the planet is covered in a toxic fog. The crew in the space station, must decide whether to risk their lives to get home and search for survivors, or stay safe in the station's "algae symbiosis system".
- They are Moscow's stray shadows: a "pack" of dogs and humans, claiming their territory where the city is crumbling and yet reveals a magical landscape.
- Erik/Erika Schinegger - the ski sensation that became media sensation. As Erika she was celebrated. As newly discovered Erik repudiated and accused of fraud. A true story about the injustice of nature, the taboo topics in Austria in the 1970s.
- An opulent cinematic journey through one of the world's most beautiful countries. From the icy, snowy world of the high mountains with their mighty glaciers, thunderous waterfalls, and raging mountain streams; through the last primeval forests to the warm steppe lake, this documentary follows the trail of water--the element that has shaped this country's diverse nature like no other. Water is not only the basis of all life, it has also given Austria some of Europe's most spectacular natural wonders. In deep forests, ducklings jump from tall trees to learn how to swim; in inaccessible gorges a prototype of trout has survived; and in raging wild rivers, the world's oldest vertebrate has survived for millions of years. All this is captured in intoxicating images that bring the audience at home up close to the experience of nature and wildlife.
- Everyone knows the "Harrinator". A tough ice-hockey crack, famously witty, irresistible with the ladies, as cool as they come. At least that is what he thinks. Everyone else would disagree. His hockey career has been over for years. His hairline is receding as fast as his gut is growing. And to top it off, his long-time girl-friend Ina kicks him out of their apartment. Harri is in a deep slump.
- The Alps, the so called "Roof of Europe", stand for wild mountains, extreme lives, but also a magical world. This majestic mountain range connects eight countries and reaches heights of up to 4,000 metres above sea level. At a length of 1,200 kilometres, the Alps form both a connecting bridge between western and eastern Europe and a high barrier between southern and central Europe. The mountains act as a mighty water reservoir and continental watershed, feeding innumerable rivers that flow into three different big seas. Many peaks steeped in legend and history, such as the Matterhorn, the Grossglockner or the highest of them all, the Mount Blanc, tower above a sea of snow and ice-covered heights. Vast river valleys and huge forests cover giant areas, and craggy summits and rugged canyons dot the landscape. Despite extreme local weather conditions and the rapidly changing climatic circumstances at different times of the year, a diverse animal world was able to develop, which has adapted perfectly to its habitat. Eurasian lynx, griffon vulture, ibex and marmot are exposed to extreme seasonal fluctuations, from fleeting thunderstorms and landslides in summer to avalanches and frozen winter temperatures. The 2-part nature documentary provides insights into their lives in impressive images and shows the unbelievable variety of landscapes, flora and fauna that make the Alps a unique natural treasure in the heart of Europe.
- The first episode focuses on the warm months of the year and opens near the sun-soaked Mediterranean coast. Here, in the western foothills of the Alps in Italy and France, the Mediterranean flora and fauna meets the animals and plants of the alpine environment. When lizards in the low-lying olive groves begin seeking out mates in spring, the marmots are still hibernating in their burrows in the snow-covered higher elevations. But the time of the big rodents will come when the temperature gets warmer and the snow melts, because after a long hibernation they will dominate the high alpine meadows again. In one of the deepest Alpine river canyons, Verdon Gorge, the griffon vultures have already begun to reproduce and rear their young. Meanwhile, higher up, a golden eagle continues to circle above its still-frozen realm. He's looking for prey. One reason why the marmots have to be on their guard at all times. Frogs that have spent the cold season underground now re-appear and begin their courtship in the Alpine ponds and lakes. Warm spring winds drive away the final patches of snow from the mountain pastures. Millions of crocuses and other harbingers of spring that were biding their time now cover the slopes in a sea of colour. Meanwhile, the forests resound with the distinctive mating calls of the western capercaillies. Spring and summer are a time for courtship, mating, feasting, giving birth and rearing offspring - for everyone who lives and thrives in this extraordinary environment.
- The second episode examines the cold, icy seasons and the many hardships and dangers that accompany life during an Alpine winter. Rocks and ice, freezing cold, winter storms, deep snow, deadly avalanches and scarcity - there's no end to difficulties for the locals. And yet, every year, the survival strategies that have developed throughout the ages are successful, and life continues to endure in the inhospitable world of the Alps in winter.
