Maidan Massacre is an investigative documentary into the shootings which occurred on February 20th, 2014, when nearly 50 people were gunned down on the streets of Kyiv's Independence square. The massacre was the result of a massive three month long protest against the former Government of Viktor Yanukovich and his decision to reject a trade deal with the EU. Although no thorough investigation had been conducted, the blame was immediately placed on the officers who served under Yanukovich. This program investigates the scene of the crime, interviewing those who were there when the shootings occurred, and seeks to answer the questions as to who really was shooting that day on Kyiv's Independence square - a place known to the people of Ukraine, as Maidan.—John Beck Hofmann close

40 years of space exploration is not only successful and unsuccessful launches, flights, landings on the moon or attempts of expeditions to distant worlds. It is also a fierce battle for space supremacy between two superpowers, the Soviet Union and the United States. The battle was not just to prove that capitalism or socialism was better. Both sides were preparing for a real war in space and came up with, at first glance, absolutely fantastic things, many of which, due to secrecy, become known only after many years. Star Wars: Adult Games is a secret space movie. A space that has almost never been in the newspapers for 40 years. close

It is a strange coincidence that almost all unusual stories, whether they are biblical miracles or, for example, paranormal phenomena, contain one thing in common. At the crucial moment, people either fall asleep or wake up. Perhaps behind this lies one phenomenon, which quite unnoticed for us had a huge impact on the entire history and culture of human civilization. A phenomenon that almost no one knows about.
The film “The Phase” is a completely new look at how the paranormal abilities of a person work. Viewers are invited to reflect on such mystical phenomena as lucid dreams or astral projection, which had a large-scale, albeit hidden, influence on what is happening in society, acting as instruments of religious institutions and powerful powers.
After following the thoughts of the authors of the film “Phase”, find out how close modern people came to revealing their dormant abilities. close
