Breathtaking in its subtle beauty, Harvest is an achingly romantic tale of an innocent but ever increasingly passionate affair that develops between two simple farmhands. Life on a farm is all that sullen teen Marco knows- leading a perfunctory and quiet life of working, going to school and avoiding the advances of girls. However, his self-imposed solitude ends when curly-haired Jakob, rejecting the banking world for farming, arrives to train on the farm. Although initially cautious and tentative with each other, it is soon obvious that the unspoken sexual tension is becoming increasingly hard to resist - something a spontaneous trip to Berlin. Proving that true love can blossom in even the most unlikely of places, Harvest is as rich and rewarding as it is heart-warming.

For decades, Europeans between Finland and Cyprus were united by a promise of peace and greater prosperity. But since the financial crisis of 2008, the European project has been in its worst state since World War II.

Labor rights and social standards are being increasingly eroded, fueling ethnic hatred, class struggle, and nationalism, and driving people into the arms of right-wing populists. In Christoph Schuch's documentary "Europe – A Continent as Prey," important questions are raised about the problem, foremost among them, of course: How did it come to this? And how can we get out of this dangerous situation?
