- Robert De Niro is famous for his award-winning portrayals of gangsters, criminals and socially disturbed men who show surprising traces of vulnerability. By analyzing his astonishing roles in iconic films through the years, the documentary reveals the complex actor behind these extreme characters. Because the public knows little about the man who is largely silent about his own life and emotions, this film tries to unwrap one of the most fascinating and enigmatic American actors of all time for the audience. For this the filmmakers use clips from his feature films, archive footage of his sparse interviews and probe into his background to illustrate De Niro's methods for becoming the characters he plays and the reasons he's able to do so. All of this culminates in a rare exposé of the genesis of the hidden pain that enables the masterful actor to bring such intensity to the big screen.

The two Hitchcock were inseparable, engineering the unquestionable masterpieces together. Their genuine collaboration never stopped from the day they met until the end of their lives.

- By 2030, it is estimated that half of the planet will be obese or overweight, leading to an explosion of diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and certain cancers. How can we explain this global epidemic, which no country has yet managed to curb? While obesity carries its own set of clichés, from all-powerful genes to failing individual wills, and while industrialists and public authorities continue to point the finger at the lack of physical activity, could this scourge not be the result of a collective failure cooked up on our plates? At the end of the 1970s, the fight against fat, designated as responsible for cardiovascular diseases, made cereals, rich in carbohydrates and massively subsidized, the new basis of our diet.
