The Pope's Mysterious Army

Informações

Sinopse: É o menor e mais misterioso exército do mundo: a Guarda Suíça. O filme acompanha esses homens de fé e combate, desde o recrutamento na Suíça até o treinamento militar no coração do Vaticano. Composta por 150 homens, esse corpo de elite vive em quartéis no centro da Cidade do Vaticano. Todos devem ser cidadãos suíços e católicos devotos. Todos juraram lutar até a morte para proteger sua fé e o Santo Padre. Eles são herdeiros de uma tradição de 500 anos, na qual a proteção e segurança do Papa eram asseguradas por mercenários suíços. Treinados tanto no uso de alabardas quanto de fuzis semiautomáticos, os Guardas Suíços formam um exército único. Mas quem são eles, de fato? O que motiva esses jovens a ingressar nesse corpo militar e religioso? Um mergulho em um mundo normalmente fechado às câmeras.

Cineastas em Exílio: Do Terceiro Reich a Hollywood

Eight hundred German filmmakers (cast and crew) fled the Nazis in the 1930s. The film uses voice-overs, archival footage, and film clips to examine Berlin's vital filmmaking in the 1920s; then it follows a producer, directors, composers, editors, writers, and actors to Hollywood: some succeeded and many found no work. Among those profiled are Erich Pommer, Joseph May, Ernst Lubitsch, Fritz Lang, Billy Wilder, and Peter Lorre. Once in Hollywood, these exiles helped each other, housed new arrivals, and raised money so others could escape. Some worked on anti-Nazi films, like Casablanca. The themes and lighting of German Expressionism gave rise in Hollywood to film noir.
