Margaret Thatcher: The Iron Lady Who Changed Britain Forever (Documentary, 2012)

The major film The Iron Lady features a critically acclaimed performance by Meryl Streep as British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher – The Iron Lady of the Western World. From her humble beginnings as a Grocer’s daughter from Grantham, Margaret Thatcher fought her way through the murky world of politics, the sexist prejudices of the Conservative Party elite and the scepticism of the British electorate to become the greatest British Prime Minister since Winston Churchill. Although Margaret Thatcher broke down the barriers and became a pathfinder for a new generation of women in politics, she was not averse to using her good looks and sexuality to help convince other leaders that hers was the right course of action. It was not for nothing that French Premier Francois Mitterrand said that she had ‘the eyes of Caligula and the mouth of Marilyn Monroe’. But most of all Margaret Thatcher was a conviction politician. Never scared of criticism or negative opinion polls, she fought for what she believed was right and just: whether that was fighting against the Argentine invasion of the Falklands

Life After Chernobyl and Fukushima | Full Documentary

Thirty years after Chernobyl and five years after Fukushima, millions of people continue to live on lands quietly marked by radioactive contamination. This documentary enters the “grey zones” of Belarus, Norway, and Japan, where the consequences of nuclear disaster are not only historical, but part of everyday life. After Chernobyl, the scientific program Ethos was launched with support from France and the European Union to work directly with communities in contaminated territories, helping residents identify daily risks, adapt their behaviors, and continue living in affected areas. In central Norway, heavy fallout from Chernobyl deeply disrupted the lives of the Sami people, whose traditional reindeer herding practices were severely impacted by radioactivity. Decades later, Japan faced similar questions after Fukushima, where Ethos-inspired meetings brought together people from Belarus, Norway, and Japan to share experiences, fears, knowledge, and survival strategies. Through rare personal testimony and unique encounters across three countries, the film asks urgent human questions: What does it mean to live in a contaminated territory? What risks remain invisible? And how do communities rebuild daily life in the long shadow of
