Deuxième plus grand pays d'Afrique, ex Zaïre, la République Démocratique du Congo (RDC) a une particularité : c'est l'un des pays les plus pauvres de la planète, qui compte le plus grand nombre de millionnaires. Ils sont six cents alors que 70 % de la population vit avec moins d'un dollar par jour.
Hommes d'affaires, artistes, ex-chefs rebelles ou évangélistes, beaucoup ont fait fortune en plein chaos. Ravagée par plusieurs guerres et rongée par la dictature, la RDC détient d'énormes richesses dans son sous-sol. De l'or, des diamants, mais aussi du coltan et du cobalt, des minerais qui entrent dans la fabrication de nos téléphones portables et de nos batteries de voitures électriques.
À Kinshasa, la capitale, la plupart de ces nouveaux riches ont leur résidence au cœur d'enclaves ultrasécurisées et hyper luxueuses, dignes de Beverly Hills. Parmi eux, Fally Ipupa. Star internationale de la chanson, il aurait pu choisir de vivre à Londres ou à Miami, mais il a préféré rester dans son pays pour encourager son renouveau.
With a staggering 1112 episodes across seven seasons, 'RE: European Stories' is not your average TV series; it's an immersive experience that takes viewers on a captivating tour of Europe. This reportage magazine showcases different aspects of the continent - from focusing on significant political events such as elections to painting detailed portraits of individual countries or highlighting the efforts of single persons driving small-scale European projects.
The series starts powerfully with episode 1 focusing on the right-wing populist 'Party for Freedom' (PVV) which could become the strongest force in the Dutch elections held on March 15, 2017. It portrays how this development becomes a nightmare for migrants and Muslims in the country, demonstrating how rigid positions in this once liberal flagship democracy are. The high-emotional election campaign is shown to change society significantly.
Moving further into Eastern Europe, episode 2 sheds light on Poland's growing fear of Russian invasion since the Ukraine crisis. It shows tens of thousands of men and women trading their everyday outfits for olive-green combat attire to train for defending their homeland. Even Polish education is seen embracing militarization trends with over 30,000 students attending uniform classes where they receive military training using real weapons.
