America Who Are You?
DocumentaryWar & Politics
250 years on from the country’s Declaration of Independence, the image of the United States has become tarnished. By drawing parallels between cowboys and populism, Thanksgiving and Charlie Kirk, this documentary demonstrates that Trump’s politics differ from those of his predecessors and are not in line with the values upon which the history of the American nation was founded.

011. Freedom and Religion
To mark the 250th anniversary of US independence, this documentary examines the values upon which the American nation is founded – a nation now in the midst of Trump’s second presidential term – and is structured around four main themes: the ideal of freedom, the prominence of religion, the American dream and love of country.
022. Capitalism and Superpower
Linked to the principle of freedom and the concept of divine blessing, the figure of the self-made man contributes to the development of American-style capitalism: the state must guarantee fundamental rights, but must not interfere in the economy.
