Square Metre of Hell / 2020
#HongKong
Hong Kong is famous for its dense skyline dominated by luxurious skyscrapers. And it’s not just the city’s high rises that soar above the clouds - rents are exorbitant. So much so that the poorest residents have no choice other than squeezing into tiny apartments known as cage houses.
They are cages - sleeping compartments in a shared room separated from neighbours by wire mesh. Cage homes cost around $300 per month - still beyond the means of many low-income Hongkongers. Watch Square Metre of Hell for more about the housing crisis in Hong Kong.

Knockout Girls / 2016

One of the world’s most recognizable buildings sits in the very heart of Moscow. Do you know what it is?
St. Basil's Cathedral was commissioned by Ivan the Terrible to commemorate his victory over the Kazan Khanate, and is veiled in enigma. There’s an old legend that Ivan blinded the architects so they could never again build anything so beautiful, others say its dazzling domes were brought from Kazan. With architectural echoes of Gothic churches and even the Taj Mahal, its officially name is ‘the Cathedral of the Intercession on the Moat’ but it’s much more widely known as St. Basil's in honor of Basil the Blessed. This revered holy figure, who it’s said performed miracles, even scared the fearless Ivan. What other secrets lie within its walls?

Abortion: America’s Divide / 2022
#USA
One in three American women lost access to abortion in their home states in 2022 after the Supreme Court decision to overturn the landmark Roe v. Wade ruling.
“I had an abortion at sixteen, so I know the pain and the heartache abortion brings to a woman later on in life,” Jerry Lynn Scott says, sharing her story of regret after taking the ‘My Body, My Choice' decision.
However, the majority of Americans believe abortion should be legal in all or most cases. They defend it by reminding us of rape victims, life-threatening pregnancies, and other cases when access to safe and legal abortion is needed.
Now that the post-Roe era has begun, the fundamental divide over abortion rights seems to be getting starker. In Abortion: America’s Divide, you can hear from all sides and make up your own mind.

Grisi Siknis / 2019
#Nicaragua
Locals call it Grisi siknis. Nicaragua’s indigenous Miskito community is gripped by a mystery ailment that strikes suddenly, causing convulsions, shaking, and breathing difficulties. Victims can become extremely strong during Grisi siknis seizures.
The mysterious phenomenon affects mostly young girls. According to locals, the fits of hysteria can be contagious. It is said that if a victim merely mentions someone’s name, that person may also suffer a Grisi siknis attack.
The affliction can’t be cured by conventional drugs, so the Miskito people turn to traditional healers, who usually concoct a remedy consisting of medicinal herbs and plants. Locals believe Grisi sikinis may stem from demonic influences, and scientists can’t find a physiological explanation.

Battle for Africa / 2023
#Africa
‘Allegedly, due to terrorist attacks carried out in Mali, Western countries came here to fight terrorism. However, the situation was deteriorating day by day: people were being killed, villages attacked, things were worsening’, says activist for cooperation between Mali and Russia Souleymane Traore. Since 2013 the French coalition tried to fight terrorism in Mali but locals saw no improvement. Africans found themselves in a desperate situation, unwilling to let the French army stay in their land. But some Malians still remember how the USSR sent them food and diesel fuel by planes and developed infrastructure during the French economic blockade in 1962.
They decided to address Russia for help and collected almost 9 million signatures of Malians requesting Russia to come to Mali and solve the problem with the terrorists. Locals say that after the French left they feel more secure and independent. Watch the Documentary to find out how Mali became the flagship of struggle for independence in Africa.
