An ambitious scientific quest is underway to recreate the power of the Sun here on Earth. This fascinating documentary takes viewers inside one of the most complex engineering projects ever attempted: the construction of the world's largest nuclear fusion reactor. Bringing together thousands of scientists, engineers, and technicians from dozens of countries, the project seeks to harness the same process that powers the stars and transform it into a virtually limitless source of clean energy for future generations. With unprecedented access to the massive ITER facility in southern France, the documentary reveals the extraordinary challenges of building a machine capable of containing plasma hotter than the Sun itself. Through stunning visuals, cutting-edge technology, and firsthand accounts from the people making it possible, the film explores the race to unlock fusion energy, the scientific breakthroughs required to achieve it, and the potential to revolutionize humanity's energy future if this historic experiment succeeds.
In the final two episodes, the documentary investigates the immense geological forces that continue to reshape our planet. Scientists and adventurers travel to Guatemala's Volcán de Fuego, one of the most active volcanoes on Earth, capturing spectacular eruptions, rivers of lava, and towering ash clouds from astonishingly close range. Along the way, the series reveals how volcanoes are formed, how tectonic plates trigger earthquakes and tsunamis, and how volcanic activity can even create entirely new islands in the middle of the ocean. The journey then turns to one of nature's most breathtaking displays: the Aurora Borealis. In the frozen landscapes of northern Sweden, scientists uncover how powerful storms on the Sun send streams of charged particles towards Earth, illuminating the night sky with vast curtains of color. Combining stunning footage with cutting-edge research, the documentary explores solar activity, space weather, eclipses, and the remarkable connection between our planet and the forces that originate far beyond its atmosphere.
France, 17th Century. For more than three decades, a mysterious prisoner was moved from fortress to fortress under extraordinary secrecy, his identity concealed behind a mask and known only to a handful of powerful men. Ordered into confinement by the minister of Louis XIV in 1669, he would remain locked away until his death in 1703 — alive, but erased. Why was he hidden so carefully? What secret was so dangerous that it demanded absolute silence? Drawing on archival research, expert analysis, and the turbulent politics of the Sun King’s reign, this gripping historical investigation revisits one of France’s greatest unsolved enigmas. From theories of royal bloodlines and forbidden romances to diplomatic conspiracies and mistaken identities, the film explores the many faces behind the mask and the fragile power structures of absolutist France. A tale of intrigue, paranoia, and state secrecy that continues to fascinate more than 350 years later.
In 1532, Francisco de Pizarro led fewer than two hundred men into the heart of the Inca Empire and brought a civilization of millions to its knees. What drove this man—from humble beginnings in Spain—to defy impossible odds and confront Atahualpa’s army of 30,000 warriors? Through striking reenactments and expert insight, the film explores how faith, greed, and unyielding ambition collided in one of history’s most shocking encounters, forever changing the fate of two worlds. Beyond the conquest, it delves into the man himself—visionary and tyrant, believer and betrayer—revealing how his thirst for glory became a symbol of both human courage and moral ruin. Set against the breathtaking landscapes of the Andes, this journey exposes the hidden cost of empire: the blood spilled, the cultures erased, and the myths that still echo through the ruins of Cuzco.
Narrated by Morgan Freeman, this ambitious documentary series unfolds the extraordinary story of the universe across millions of years, weaving together its deep connection to life on Earth. In the first part of the series, we offer the first three episodes, beginning with an intense exploration of the sun as a life-giving force, following one cheetah’s hunt for survival across the vast plains of the Serengeti. From there, we witness the steady pulse of the universe through the eyes of a chimpanzee, tracing life’s path from birth to a final moment of calm. Finally, we immerse ourselves in the challenging year of an Alaskan brown bear as it endures the harsh winter, emerging into the warmth and renewal of summer. Each scene offers a breathtaking glimpse into the delicate and awe-inspiring rhythms of life, nature, and the cosmos.
Friendship, love, peace and freedom-these ideals drew young hearts from around the globe to Nova's EDM music festival in the South of Israel.
