According to Giorgio Vasari, the first art historian, the Renaissance was centred on a revival of interest in classical art that began and flourished in Italy. Waldemar disagrees, and accuses Vasari of errant jingoism. In fact, the most significant early developments in Renaissance art took place not in Italy, but in the ‘barbarian’ lands of Flanders and Germany. Instead of understanding the Renaissance as a return to classical models, we should see it as a climax of medieval values - an epoch of huge religious passions and powerful human emotions. The series will celebrate material that is new to television. Waldemar will include art that is not usually thought of as Renaissance art. This will involve 're-classifying' what is sometimes called Late Gothic, and showing it off as a marvellous and native artistic tradition, particularly in the remarkable field of polychrome sculpture. On top of all the new art to be introduced, Waldemar will also look from fresh and intriguing angles at many of the established Renaissance giants, including Michelangelo in the Vatican, Leonardo in the Louvre, Botticelli in the Uffizi and Van Eyck in Ghent.

I ask no favors for my sex… All I ask of our brethren is that they will take their feet from off our necks. —Sarah Moore Grimké, activist for women’s suffrage, 1837 As the United States Supreme Court leans increasingly to the right, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s vigorous dissenting opinions and ferocious 20-push-up workouts have earned this tiny, soft-spoken, intellectual giant the status of rock star and the title “Notorious RBG.” What many don’t know is Ginsburg’s strategic, trailblazing role in defining gender-discrimination law. Intent on systematically releasing women from second-class status, she argued six pivotal gender-bias cases in the 1970s before an all-male Supreme Court blind to sexism. Now 84, and still inspired by the lawyers who defended free speech during the Red Scare, Ginsburg refuses to relinquish her passionate duty, steadily fighting for equal rights for all citizens under the law. Through intimate interviews and unprecedented access to Ginsburg’s life outside the court, RBG tells the electric story of Ginsburg’s consuming love affairs with both the Constitution and her beloved husband Marty—and of a life’s work that led her to become an icon of justice in the highest court in the land.

该片由著名摄影师和纪录片导演焦波担任总导演，此前他的《俺爹俺娘》和《亲吻春天——俺和俺的地震孤儿》系列曾在中国社会引起巨大反响，尤其是《俺爹俺娘》系列曾感动了无数儿女。 这一次《乡村里的中国》焦波仍然把镜头对准了其老家——山东淄博，不过拍的不再是自己出生的村庄，而是沂蒙山革命老区沂源县杓峪村。影片以一个小村庄为切入点，展现了中国农村的巨大变迁、环境保护、农民的精神追求和物质追求等诸多社会现实话题，既生动有趣，又深刻感人。 焦波在接受记者采访时透露，拍摄这部纪录片，他和他的摄制组在杓峪村里呆了整整373天：“村里一共有167户人家，我们去了之后是第168户。”而焦波的摄制组，除了他一个人年龄较大（接近60岁），其它四名主创的平均年龄只有20出头：“所以我们这个片子展现的不仅是中国农村的社会现实，而且是站在年轻人的角度去展现的，我相信也会受到年轻人喜欢。” 最373天时间里，《乡村里的中国》摄制组和当地村民一起吃、一起住，成了一家人拍摄了近1000个小时的素材，最终剪辑出大约两个小时的精华。 曾多次执导央视春晚的金越认为，《乡村里的中国》直观鲜活地呈现了中国农民不同个体的喜怒哀乐、家庭关系和民俗民风，人物形象鲜明生动，影片结构充满张力，故事复杂，线索清晰，画面朴实，剪辑流畅，同期声音录制完美，“是这个时代有记录意义的、不可多得的中国农村生活标本。”
