Sinossi

Defendant no. 9 was the youngest war criminal to be sentenced to death by hanging in the Bergen-Belsen trial in 1945. She caused a worldwide sensation because the crimes she was accused of, her brutality and cruelty and her sadism towards the prisoners stood in stark contrast to her appearance. She had many names:"Hyena of Auschwitz," "Hell's Angel" or "Queen of Belsen." And her accuser said of her at the trial: "And there is not a single atrocity that took place in this camp for which she was not known to be responsible. She regularly took part in the selection for the gas chamber, punished arbitrarily, and when she came to Belsen, she continued in exactly the same way." In this documentary, we embark on a search for clues in old files and archives and shed light on the 243 days of 1945, from the liberation of the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp to the execution of the perpetrators in Hameln. We accompany Grese through the entire trial to the gallows, look at the witness statements, read what the press wrote, discover little to hardly known facts, correct mistakes and immerse ourselves directly in the events when we follow the questioning and cross-examination of defendant no. 9.

    Journalist Josiah Bates pulls back the curtain on a crisis that continues to plague the United States in this gripping narrative. Fueled by the convergence of the COVID-19 pandemic and social unrest, gun violence has surged to unprecedented levels, devastating marginalized communities and urban areas across the nation.  
     
    Bates embarks on a heart-wrenching journey, crisscrossing the country to meet victims, perpetrators, community activists, and renowned scholars. Through their powerful stories, he unearths the hidden causes behind the escalating gun violence epidemic. From the corrosive effects of poverty to the contentious debates surrounding policing and calls to defund law enforcement, Bates fearlessly navigates the intricate web of factors influencing gun violence. Through firsthand accounts and expert analysis, he exposes the systemic failures that perpetuate this cycle of destruction and delivers a powerful clarion call for change.  
     
    Bates amplifies rarely heard voices in this debate, including both victims and perpetrators of shootings, some of whom now work tirelessly to dismantle the violence in their communities. Their stories, alongside Bates’s unflinching reporting, illuminate a path toward long-term solutions. As the nation grapples with this relentless epidemic, Bates presents a compelling case for unity and action. In These Streets is a groundbreaking investigation that uncovers the deep-rooted causes of gun violence, empowering readers with the knowledge, empathy, and inspiration needed to drive meaningful transformation. 
     
    “If you want to understand gun violence but don’t know where to start, start here. Josiah Bates brings together gripping stories, solid research, and astute analysis—all in clear, readable language. By approaching violence as a problem to be solved and not an argument to be won, Bates leaves us with something in short supply these days: hope.”—Thomas Abt, author of Bleeding Out: The Devastating Consequences of Urban Violence—and a Bold New Plan for Peace in the Streets

    Teotihuacan, known as the "City of the Gods," remains one of the most enigmatic civilizations of ancient Mesoamerica. Its origins date back to around 400 BCE, when small settlements began to emerge in the Valley of Mexico. Over the centuries, these settlements merged, gradually forming what would become the largest and most influential city of its time. The exact reasons for its rise are still debated, but archaeologists believe that a combination of favorable geography, trade opportunities, and sociopolitical factors contributed to Teotihuacan’s emergence as a dominant power. 
    The valley’s rich volcanic soil provided fertile land for agriculture, supporting crops such as maize, beans, and squash. The region was also strategically located along key trade routes, allowing early inhabitants to engage in commerce with neighboring cultures. As the population grew, so did the need for organization, leading to the development of complex social structures. Unlike other civilizations that revolved around a single ruling dynasty, Teotihuacan appears to have been governed by a collective leadership, possibly a council of elites who controlled different aspects of city life. 
    One of the most intriguing aspects of Teotihuacan’s early history is the origin of its name. The Aztecs, who discovered the abandoned ruins centuries later, named it "Teotihuacan," meaning "the place where gods were born." This suggests that even in ancient times, the city held a sense of divine significance. Mythology and spiritual beliefs were deeply intertwined with its development, as seen in its grand temples and pyramids, which were aligned with celestial movements.
