Filmová dráma Amen. splieta dva príbehy: skutočné postavy - poručíka SS Kurta Gersteina, ktorý na vlastné oči, ako jeden z prvých videl vyhladzovanie Židov v koncentračných táboroch Belzec a Treblinka, a teatrálny svet temných tieňov Vatikánu a ich diplomatických hier. Tieto dva príbehy sú spojené fiktívnou postavou mladého jezuitského kňaza Fontana, ktorý sa snaží sprostredkovať poznatky a svedectvo Vatikánu tak, aby mohol Svätý Otec verejne deklarovať postoj cirkvi k židovskej genocíde.

Mal právo zostať v tieni svojej neutrality v snahe chrániť ich? Jedna z hlavných postáv filmu dáva kľúč k tejto záhade: "Pred vojnou sme mali pápeža vojny (Pius XII.). Po jeho smrti sme zvolili pápeža mieru, ale začala vojna! "

Charlemagne, le prince à cheval is a 1993 television miniseries about the life of Charlemagne. It consists of five episodes and covers the period from the death of his father, Pepin the Short in AD 768 until Charlemagne's corronation as the first Holy Roman Emperor on Christmas Day, AD 800.
