Women are twenty-seven times more likely than men to be harassed on social media. This shocking finding, published by the European Women's Lobby in 2017, suggests that cyber-violence against women is not a series of isolated acts, but a systemic scourge. Sociological studies have shown that it is mostly committed by men who, contrary to popular belief, belong to more privileged socio-economic groups. Feeling protected by the virtual nature of their actions, the perpetrators are organised and sometimes carry out "digital raids", or harassment in packs, with terrible consequences, both personal and professional, for their victims.
 
This documentary focuses on women’s testimony from all walks of life who have been victim of online abuse and examines the harm this phenomenon does to them and to democratic debate.

For decades, the middle classes were what held post-war Europe together. Confidence in the Republic and its values was a given for the French middle classes who saw the state as a force for good and believed in social mobility. That all changed with the Yellow Vest movement (2018-2019) which saw angry protests against the government. This documentary follows participants in this movement.

Stanislaw Lem is Poland's most famous sci-fi writer who predicted smartphones and virtual reality decades in advance. Yet his life is shrouded in mystery and full of paradoxes. How did he manage to survive the Holocaust? What were his true feelings towards communism? How did he manage to keep up with international science and technology with such outstanding accuracy - whilst living on the outskirts of Krakow, behind the Iron Curtain? And why did he write for the Catholic weekly “Tygodnik Powszechny”, while being openly atheist?
