The Four Seasons:
sold-out halls
standing ovations

“An experience for the eyes and ears,” raves the Ruhr Nachrichten, and the WAZ writes: “This journey, on which the filmmaker takes the audience up close, is absolutely perfect.” Vivaldi meets Germany from Above: you have never experienced the music of the Baroque virtuoso and his famous “Four Seasons” like this before.

Our film and live concert production with the famous Leipzig Philharmonic Orchestra is already being celebrated as a visual and musical masterpiece. After its acclaimed premiere at the Konzerthaus Dortmund, the exceptional orchestra with its sensational violin soloist Holger Engelhardt is now touring from one sold-out concert hall to the next. Accompanied by opulent images of Germany from above, from the Wadden Sea to the Watzmann, on giant screens and in the best cinema quality.
Whether in Dortmund, Münster, Wiesbaden, Leipzig, or Hannover—everywhere the halls are sold out and the audience is in high spirits.

We make high-end documentaries, docu-fiction and drama, focusing on natural history, science, society, history or just on life. Our films make the invisible visible.

Russia From Above
2026 – The new
Director's Cut

Our globally successful documentary series Russia from Above will be released in 2026 in a revised version reflecting Russia’s unprovoked war against Ukraine. The original version of the television series was censored in Russia and was therefore not broadcast on state-controlled TV. Only the cinema version and the live concert version were approved.

Hollywood icon John Malkovich (photo) has once again provided the narration for the new Revisited Director’s Cut with his unmistakable voice, as he did for the original. The TV version is narrated by BBC presenter Timothy Birkett. Russia from Above broke all ratings records on ZDF’s Terra X and won the “Best Adventure” category at the leading American documentary film festival LA DOC, among others, in its cinema version.

Fire, water, earth,
air – Who owns
the energy?

Our new four-part documentary series STROM – Wem gehört die Energie? (STROM – Who owns the energy?) addresses the controversial questions: Which countries and powers control the natural resources that are indispensable for renewable and traditional energy production, energy transport, energy storage, and chip production? And: Will new renewable energies really soon replace fossil fuels such as coal, gas, and oil?

Who owns and controls the raw materials needed for energy production, including wind, solar, and hydrogen? Is nuclear energy making a comeback? Or did it never go away? Why is the US under President Trump so keen on countries like Canada and Greenland? What raw material monopolies does China already have? What role does Russia play? And what about Europe?

Our photo above: Searching for raw materials in the Greenland Alps. In pre-production. To be broadcast
in early 2027.

THE ARCTIC –
STREAMING ON BBC EARTH
AND ON NETFLIX

Our natural history series The Arctic – 66.5 Degrees North is now available on NETFLIX, as well as in selected countries on BBC EARTH, the BBC’s global streaming service.

The BBC is showing the English-language version, which we recorded in Copenhagen with Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (photo). Nik is best known for his leading role as Jaime Lannister in the global hit series Game of Thrones. He shares the narration with his wife, Nukaaka Coster-Waldau. Both acting stars are United Nations (UN) Goodwill Ambassadors for Climate Change. Nukaaka grew up in Uummannaq, Greenland. Of course, The Arctic can still be seen in the ZDF media library,
narrated by Benjamin Völz.

colourFIELD Acquires
Film Rights to
"Octopus" Novel

Das dritte Herz des Oktopus was a bestseller on the book market, reaching number 2 on the SPIEGEL bestseller list. colourFIELD will now adapt the third book in the “Oktopus” series into a film version and has acquired the film rights to do so. The production will be shot in English. The German screenplay by Ralf Hoppe and Oliver Keidel will be translated into English in Ireland. The climate thriller is set (in the novel) in locations around the world, including South Africa, Tahiti, Panama, Isla Robinson in Chile, Florida, and Schleswig-Holstein. Jenny Stead from South Africa will play one of the leading roles. The film is scheduled
for release in 2027.

Our New Channel
on YouTube:
The Lost Tapes

Our new YouTube channel is like a journey through time. Since 1994, colourFIELD and its two founders, Petra Höfer and Freddie Röckenhaus conducted countless interviews, filming hundreds of hours of footage, often in far-flung locations. THE LOST TAPES now delves into the terabyte depths of our archives.

The interviews with Al Jardine, one of the founding members of the legendary Beach Boys, are already a YouTube hit. Our interviews with fashion legend Giorgio Armani, who died in 2025, have also garnered numerous views. There is a complete interview with Donald Trump from 1999, before Trump was in politics but a New York popstar among real estate tycoons. Enjoy our conversation with Bill Wyman, bassist for the Rolling Stones for 31 years, filmed at his birthday party. Or our chat with entrepreneur, photographer and “playboy” Gunter Sachs, who passed away in 2011. There’s John Kay who with his band Steppenwolf delivered rock classics such as “Born to be Wild” . As well as Woodstock-legend Country Joe McDonald (“Gimme an F…!), who sadly passed in March 2026. Visit our channel to join the journey.

New: Highlights
from colourFIELD's
drama productions

colourFIELD has been particularly successful with high-end documentaries. However, since 2003, we have also produced a number of dramatized biographies in feature film format. These include the film adaptation of the true story of the Mutiny On The Bounty in our film “Logbook Bounty” (photo), shot in Australia, Tahiti, and Moorea, and incredibly on the replica of the historic Bounty tall ship. As well as “Hazard in the Jungle” with top South African actress Jenny Stead, who will be working with us again for the “Octopus” production.

colourFIELD often shot these feature films in remote and challenging locations, such as the remote tributaries of the Amazon, with orangutans in the Borneo rainforests, elephants in Africa, and alligators on the Rio Negro in Brazil.

EXTRABREIT and Theo: Our Favorites, Our Music Videos

The music video colourFIELD produced for our friends at Extrabreit, Vorwärts durch die Zeit (Forward Through Time) was a call out from the band to their fans during the concert-free days of the coronavirus pandemic. The new Extrabreit album accompanying the single is called Auf Ex!

Our video for THEO’s “Heart Of Soul”, the title track from his album recorded in Los Angeles, is also well worth a watch.

The Giant Cave
Wins the German
Mountain Film Award

Our movie 20,000 Meters Under the Earth – Das Riesending was awarded the prestigious German Mountain Film Prize at Lake Tegernsee in the “Audience Favorite”category. The film also won the World Premiere Award in Los Angeles, received the “World Merit Award” from the National Speleological Society USA, and was an official selection at the Kathmandu Mountain Film Festival (KIMFF). Das Riesending is by far the deepest and longest shaft cave in Germany and one of the most difficult caves in the world to explore.

Stretching almost 25 kilometres, its rocky tunnels snake 1,200 meters down into the legendary Untersberg mountain, through spectacular underground landscapes reminiscent of The Lord of the Rings or the stories of Jules Verne.

Our forests
now in cinema format
internationally

Our Forests is one of colourFIELD’s most acclaimed and successful film series. During the initial broadcast of the film series on Terra X on ZDF, colourFIELD co-founder Petra Höfer died unexpectedly on June 6, 2017. As co-writer and co-director, Petra played a key role in creating the Our Forests film series. We are presenting an edited, English-language 90-minute version in cinema format for the first time, based on the ARTE version.

The Our Forests series has won numerous awards, including the highly prestigious Georg von Holtzbrinck Prize and the German Nature Film Prize. Petra received both of these awards posthumously.
