Yes, some of the docs by Arte are great! I actually watched one with my mother a few weeks back regarding proxy wars and oil and she was blown away by connecting the dots on so much news from when she was ~20-30. (She is 70+ today and has lived in northern Europe all her life.)

Other docs on Arte feel like emotional eco-drivel “back to nature” blah blah, very German IMHO, but it can be somewhat enlightening to hear that point of view too. I am very pro nature/environment, but do not want to dismantle capitalism and remove all forms of mass-production that some Arte stuff advocates.
