Lost In Religion
A documentary by Marc Burth.
In co-production with NDR/arte, gute filme (Switzerland) and SRF.
Is there a god? Where is he? To whom does he reveal himself? And why doesn’t he reveal himself to me? Questions like these have always concerned mankind. The film “Lost in Religion” explores these questions in a humorous way by travelling around the world and meeting the most important people with distinct opinions regarding this issue.

Ice Cold Passion - Leni Riefenstahl and Arnold Fanck between Hitler and Hollywood
A Film by Annette Baumeister A Gebrueder Beetz Filmproduction
She is the most radical and controversial artist of the 20th century - Leni Riefenstahl. He is the inventor of the mountain film, camera designer and film avant-gardist of the 20s - Arnold Fanck.

It's the hitherto riskiest and most expensive film project in history.
Nelson Mandela: the myth & me
A film by Khalo Matabane
Khalo Matabane asks global thinkers, Apartheid-victims and Mandela’s entourage to classify Nelson Mandela’s achievements, thereby providing a multi-facetted approach to his myth. His recent death at the high age of 95 offers the opportunity to reflect upon his legacy beyond sainthood. Amongst others, Matabane interviews the Dalai Lama, Henry Kissinger, Colin Powell, Peter Hain, Albie Sachs and Ariel Dorfman. Critique may just as well be pronounced as approval and veneration. How do they interpret his message of freedom, forgiveness and reconciliation in the world of today?
Buddha and the Snow Leopards
A documentary by Zhou Bing
Snow leopards are one of the most endangered cat species worldwide and are strictly protected. Their habitat continuously shrinks because of environmental destruction and the local herdsmen broadening their pastures. A conflict between humans and nature. Buddhist monks try to solve this conflict with an extraordinary project: The herdsmen are given cameras to document their daily lives and rediscover their traditional understanding of nature.
New Zealand from Above (Episode 3)
New Zealand's Wild West
For millions of years the magnificent nature of New Zealand could prosper freely, undisturbed by humans. In the third episode we will explore the West Coast which unifies all the extremes the island has to offer, from incredibly beautiful to hostile and untamed. Impenetrable rainforests mix with moist swamplands. More than 70 different bird species populate the lagoons that branch out like veins deep into the landscape and an extensive and mazy cave system stretches inland, waiting to be explored.
Lost In Religion
A documentary by Marc Burth.
In co-production with NDR/arte, gute filme (Switzerland) and SRF.
After becoming a father, Marc Burth has a problem: Two children and no fitting religion for them. His father is Protestant, his mother is Jewish, and his sister a shaman. His wife’s dad is a Moslem; her mother, Catholic. Making the right choice for his children in this intersection of religions is a difficult job for the confused filmmaker! Searching for answers, Marc Burth meets people that have a relationship with God and some that consciously don’t. He talks to atheists, shamans, Jesuits, Jews, Moslems, heathens and many more. He wants to know if God exists and why religion should be important to his children. The film is a playful, crazy, slightly neurotic approach to the question many people find a hard nut to crack and humanity will always search answers for: Does God exist? And if yes, how many gods are there?
