From 1940 to 1944, France's Vichy government collaborated with Nazi Germany. Marcel Ophüls mixes archival footage with 1969 interviews of a German officer and of collaborators and resistance fighters from Clermont-Ferrand. They comment on the nature, details and reasons for the collaboration, from anti-Semitism, xenophobia, and fear of Bolsheviks, to simple caution. Part one, "The Collapse," includes an extended interview with Pierre Mendès-France, jailed for anti-Vichy action and later France's Prime Minister. At the heart of part two, "The Choice," is an interview with Christian de la Mazière, one of 7,000 French youth to fight on the eastern front wearing German uniforms.—

After being commissioned by the 1936 Olympic Committee to create a feature film of the Berlin Olympics, Riefenstahl shot a documentary that celebrates the human body by combining the poetry of bodies in motion with close-ups of athletes in the heat of competition. Includes the marathon, men's diving, and American track star Jesse Owen's sprint races at the 1936 Olympic games. The production tends to glorify the young male body and, some say, expresses the Nazi attitude toward athletic prowess. Includes the lighting of the torch at the stadium and Adolf Hitler looking on in amazement as Jesse Owens wins an unprecedented four Gold Medals.—Fiona Kelleghan

A chronological look at The Doors, focusing on lead singer, Jim Morrison (1943-1971), from the formation of the band in 1965, it's first gigs, and first album, to Morrison's death, after years of alcohol and drug use. Along the journey, we see archival footage of rehearsals, performances, and private moments including a Miami concert resulting in Morrison's arrest and trial for indecency. His love of the spotlight, his desire to be a poet, and his alcohol-fueled mood swings lead to a back and forth between public and private desires, successes, and failures. The band's music plays throughout.—

A depiction of modern-day anti-Semitism in four particular countries, which writer-producer-director Andrew Goldberg cites as particular examples of anti-Semitism which is either pursued as official government policy or invoked by major political movements in them:The United States: North Carolina state legislative candidate Andrew Walker, the rise of anti-Semitism as part of white supremacism and "America First" nationalism; footage of Richard Spencer and the rise of credibility of white nationalism with the election of Donald Trump.Hungary: The coming to power of Viktor Orbán as ruler in 2010 and his re-election campaign in 2016, which used Hungarian émigré George Soros as a personification of evil Jewish capitalism and capitalists out to rule the world.Great Britain: Jeremy Corbyn's opposition to Israel and its encouragement of anti-Semitism in the Labour Party, leading to a lot of Jews and Jewish sympathizers leaving the Labour Party and likely contributing to its overwhelming election defeat in December 2019, cited as an example of anti-Semitism on the Left that also afflicts the U.S. and other countries.France: A wave of terrorism against Jews largely by Muslim immigrants from France's former colonies in North Africa who are recruited by extremist Muslims into aligning with ISIS and other jihad groups and attack Jewish synagogues, schools, Kosher markets and Jews in their own homes, including an 87-year-old Holocaust survivor who was knifed to death in her apartment.
