In an extraordinary long-term project, ‘America’s 2020’ takes you on a journey past Trumps rants and the usual headlines of the past 3 years. We hear what America really thinks and feels by shifting the focus away from politicians and commentators onto the American people. Alongside footage from the black lives matter protests and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we dive deeper than ever before. Across five episodes we follow 15-20 protagonists as they voice their fears, hopes and dreams in the build up to the 2020 US elections.

Marta, a 15-year-old Spanish student is moved to investigate what is failing in children’s education, especially in developing countries. Along with her friend Berta they use their summer holidays to travel to the island of Ibo in Mozambique, one of the poorest countries in the world. Here they find a system of sustainable education that has been running for years, a place where charity and free help are considered the worst stimulus for growth. Marta will try to understand, through interviews with relevant experts, the reasons why in such a globalized world there is still such a poor education system. Marta then travels to the world forum of education at the United Nations, where she has the opportunity to present her experiences to the international community.

Jerusalem takes audiences on an inspiring and eye-opening tour of one of the world’s oldest and most enigmatic cities. Destroyed and rebuilt countless times over 5,000 years, Jerusalem’s enduring appeal remains a mystery. What made it so important to so many different cultures? How did it become the centre of the world for three major religions? ‘Jerusalem’ attempts to answer these questions and more by following three young Jerusalemites and their families of different faiths - Jewish, Christian and Muslim.
