El paisaje del olivar
The landscape of the olive grove is the protagonist of the Mediterranean territory and is shown in this documentary at ground level and from a bird's eye view, in different unique locations of the Iberian Peninsula. From the Somontano de Barbastro in Aragón, to the south of Andalusia, with a sea of olive trees, in the mountain ranges or in the fertile plains and riverbanks. A humanized territory that, for centuries, has been sculpting history and this, not only giving a characteristic identity to our landscape, but also outlining the gastronomic tradition and culture of the Mediterranean.

Fraude alimentaire, un crime organisé ?
All food can be adulterated. More discreet than a drug cartel, more elusive than arms dealers, criminals have taken over food. Olive oil, fish, meat, spices, no department escapes their juicy traffic. A jackpot estimated in Europe at 30 billion euros enriches a new kind of mafia every year. Organized crime is selling altered products in restaurants, supermarkets and all food shops in the European Union. Their secret is to replace an ingredient with a cheaper one. Who are these new traffickers? What are their methods of operation?

Le camembert nous ouvre sa boîte
Affectionately known as claquos or calendos, Camembert is one of France's favorite cheeses. Almost 500 million Camemberts are sold in France every year. While this historic monument to French gastronomy retains its artisanal image, the reality is very different. From AOP to made-in-Normandy to 100% Norman milk, confusion reigns from market stalls to supermarket shelves. The "real" Camembert de Normandie, with its PDO label, accounts for less than 5% of sales. Investigate one of the jewels in the crown of French cheeseboards.
