The Celebration

Swedish artist Anna Odell invites us to a grim class reunion with a twist. What happens when old hierarchies and truths are questioned from an unexpected voice? Återträffen investigates how far, too far reality is. It traverses the border between fiction and reality with Odell playing the main character, using her own identity and life story to go into unspoken and invisible hierarchical structure. By processing the story in multiple layers, the complexity of power and exclusion is revealed and the dynamics of the group is exposed.

May 2020 marks the 75th anniversary of the victory in Europe at the end of World War II. As part of the celebration, National Geographic has produced a 60-minute special called WWII in Europe: Voices from the Front. Recent interviews with survivors from all over Europe and the United States allow viewers to look back at an important moment in history when the world united against a terrible enemy.

When the first episode of The Sky at Night was transmitted in April 1957, it was still thought that Mars could be home to advanced life, the Space Age was yet to begin, and the Big Bang was just a controversial theory. So to celebrate its 60th anniversary, this special programme looks at how our knowledge of the universe has been transformed in the last six decades - from the exploration of the solar system to the detection of black holes and planets orbiting distant stars.

Hosted by Sara Haines (of ABC’s “The View”) this one hour special keeps the celebration going following the premiere of Lifetime remake of the classic movie, “Beaches.” From a beach house in the Hamptons, Sara is joined stars Idina Menzel and Nia Long who reunite to reveal secrets from the set, talk about female friendships and meet their real-life best friends! “Beaches” co-stars Gabriella Pizzolo and Grace Capeless share their story on how their own friendship helped land them roles playing the young CC and young Hillary onscreen. A special guest also arrives to surprise everyone at the beach house.
