For three decades now, Qatar, this small desert kingdom, has not stopped being talked about; because of its financial power and the secrecy that surrounds it, the royal family that runs it fascinates as much as it frightens.

Since the 1990s, total insect biomass has declined by 75 percent. The rapid decline affects all food chains: fish and birds can no longer find enough to eat and are becoming fewer and fewer. Studies show that neonicotinoids used in pesticides aren't just destroying the insect popualtion, but also affect human health.

Between 2013 and 2015, three princes became the leaders of the Persian Gulf's main oil monarchies: Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. This new generation of sovereigns, some of the richest and most powerful on the planet, has imposed a new way to govern, between violence, repression and ego wars.

On February 28, 2026, the US and Israel launched massive strikes on Iran, claiming an imminent nuclear threat. This film traces how the world reached this point after more than three decades of shadow war over “the bomb”. Israel has tried to block Tehran’s nuclear drive with sabotage, assassinations and cyberwar – from the Stuxnet virus wrecking Natanz centrifuges to the AI-assisted killing of nuclear programme “father” Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, and a commando raid stealing 1.5 tonnes of secret nuclear archive files. Iran insists uranium enrichment is its sovereign right and key to national identity and regional power. As Israel pounded Iran’s nuclear facilities in June 2025 and systematically weakened its allies in Gaza, Lebanon, Syria and Yemen, nuclear talks continued in Geneva. Iran was edging towards diluting weapons-grade uranium – but Israel wasn’t prepared to wait, and pulled Washington into open war whose global consequences are only now beginning to unfold.

Protection for animals, loss for people. Nature reserves in Africa are cutting off access to forests and rivers for Indigenous communities, threatening their livelihoods. To ensure the protection of rhinos, lions, and gorillas, African governments are increasingly ceding territories to NGOs like WWF, African Parks, and the Northern Rangelands Trust, to the detriment of Indigenous peoples.
