Tim Fransen: Het Failliet van de Moderne Tijd(2016)

Theo Maassen: Ruwe Pit(nl)

Maassen won two of the biggest comedy contests in the Netherlands in 1990, the Groninger Studenten Cabaret Festival(GSCF), and Cameretten. The GSCF jury was not pleased with the quality of the contestants that year, and gave Maassen the first prize, remarking he was the best of the year, but still not very good. In the following years, however, Maassen fame grew steadily, especially amongst students. Maassens style was based on stand-up comedy: Alone on stage, telling jokes and stories to amuse the public, without any musical support (a thing common for most Dutch comedians up to that point).

Now, Marco retraces the route of his 1941 train journey as part of a convoy of workers sent by Franco to Hitler, in the middle of the Second World War.

Aaron Hernandez: Jailhouse Lover Tells All(en)

Aaron Hernandez was a talented, wealthy NFL football player who turned to murder. His suicide in 2017 was one of the most shocking moments in sports history, as a person who seemingly had it all: fame, wealth and family, decided he could no longer continue his life. As part of our investigation into Aaron’s death we came across Kyle Kennedy, the last person to see Aaron Hernandez alive and understand just what drove him to murder and ultimately suicide. We had to go inside the prison to talk to the one man who had the perspective into Aaron’s life that finally offered real answers to all the questions left behind. This special presentation is Kyle’s full story of where his life and Aaron's intersected, which gives a perspective that no one else had into the shocking and tragic life of the once-lauded Aaron Hernandez.
