Documentary examining the murder of a young French nanny, 21-year-old Sophie Lionnet, who was starved, tortured, severely beaten and murdered by the pair she was staying with; Sabrina Kouider and Ouissem Medouni. Her burned body was found in the back garden of the south London home in Southfields, borough of Wandsworth. Apparently, Sabrina Kouider believed that Sophie was conspiring with Sabrina's ex-boyfriend, Boyzone- founder Mark Walton, who Sabrina Kouider had an unhealthy obsession with after their split. Sabrina Kouider evidently tortured Sophie to confess with help from her new partner, Ouissem Medouni, while recording their interrogation. Tragically, Sophie Lionnet was murdered by the pair, who tried to cover up the burning of her body by starting a barbecue in the garden while burning Sophie's body in barrel. Featuring interviews with friends, Sophie's mother, Southfields neighbours, and Old Bailey reporters.

When blind Halifax resident Holly Bartlett was found almost a kilometer from her condo, police quickly closed her case, calling her death an accident. They concluded the 31-year-old woman, who was blind, wandered drunk and disoriented away from her building, crawling under a fence and up a cement structure beneath the McKay Bridge, where she suffered the injuries that contributed to her death. Family, friends, and colleagues have never believed it, insisting her death was suspicious. Almost a decade later, a team of investigators return to Holly’s story. Reviewing old evidence and uncovering new, this program sheds light on what really happened that frosty March evening in 2010.

Blood Business sheds light on the opaque trade of the blood plasma industry. From the impoverished streets of Cleveland Ohio to the golden shores of Switzerland's Lake Zurich, the film explores the intricacies around the business of blood. Plasma, a component of blood that is highly sought-after, now costs more per liter than petrol. Used by pharmaceutical companies to create expensive medications, this precious liquid has become a lucrative commodity. This film investigates one of the largest corporations in this flourishing market, with profits soaring over €1 billion (US$1.13 billion). Their donation centers are mostly found in poor neighborhoods in the US, and they pay donors for their blood – a practice forbidden in Europe. For impoverished Americans, blood donations have become a source of income, presenting a real risk to their health, as they lie about their conditions and donate repeatedly to make ends meet. Other donors give blood in the hope of helping others, but the reality of where their donations actually go can be somewhat different. We investigate the global trade in blood and plasma donations.
