church in enormous dresses that sometimes weigh more than the bride herself. (Big fat<br />
gypsy weddings – CH4, United Kingdom) Pastor Lee was both a priest and a doctor by<br />
profession. He sought areas that had been bombed to offer comfort and heal the<br />
wounded. He built a school to rescue children who were being hauled off to war. He<br />
helped them dream of a future and brought music into their lives by creating a brass<br />
band which gave them hope and confidence. When he passed away, the Sudanese felt<br />

Science, environment<br />
The Arctic is the harshest environment on Earth: little food grows, it’s dark for months<br />
on end, and temperatures stay well below freezing for much of the year. Yet four million<br />
people manage to survive here. Human Planet tells remarkable stories of extraordinary<br />

reactions of foreign journalists based in Moscow. (Chernobyl – Four days in April – TVP,<br />
Poland) Stories of war that left deep wounds in the protagonists psyche, obsessive<br />
nightmares, anguish, suicide attempts… during four long years and changing their<br />
