The Four Seasons:
sold-out halls
standing ovations

“A feast for the eyes and ears,” raves the Ruhr Nachrichten, while the WAZ writes: “The filmmaker brings the audience right up close on a journey that feels absolutely perfect.” Vivaldi meets Germany from Above: you’ve 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.

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 POWER – Who Owns Energy? tackles some explosive questions. Who owns and controls the raw materials needed to produce energy, including wind, solar and hydrogen? Is nuclear power making a comeback, or did it never really go away? Why is the US under President Trump so eager to get its hands on countries like Canada and Greenland? Which raw-material monopolies does China already hold? What role does Russia play, and what about Europe? Which countries and powers are sitting on the mineral resources that are indispensable for renewable and conventional energy production, energy transmission, energy storage and chip manufacturing? And when will new renewable energies truly replace the fossil fuels coal, gas and oil?

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, have conducted countless interviews and shot hundreds of hours of footage, often in remote corners of the world. THE LOST TAPES now dives into the terabyte depths of our archives. Our interviews with Al Jardine, one of the founding members of the legendary Beach Boys, are already a YouTube hit. Just as popular are our interviews with fashion legend Giorgio Armani, who died in 2025. Bill Wyman of the Rolling Stones. Entrepreneur, photographer, “playboy” and former husband of Brigitte Bardot, Gunter Sachs. Acting legend Mario Adorf. You’ll also find reportages such as Truckstop Geiselwind, Counterstrike and Behind the Scenes at Borussia Dortmund.

New: Highlights
from colourFIELD's
drama productions

colourFIELD is best known for its high-end documentaries. Since 2003, however, we have also produced many docudramas in feature-film format. One of these is our film Logbuch Bounty (pictured), which tells the true story of the mutiny on the Bounty. It was shot in Australia, Tahiti and Moorea, and all aboard a replica of the historic Bounty. Another is Hazard in the Jungle, starring leading South African actress Jenny Stead, who is working with us again in 2026 on our Oktopus production. colourFIELD has often shot these films in remote and challenging locations: on distant tributaries of the Amazon, with orangutans in the rainforest of Borneo, with elephants in Africa, and with caimans on the Rio Negro in Brazil.

EXTRABREIT and
Theo: Music Videos
by colourFIELD

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

Almost 25 kilometres of rocky passages wind their way 1,200 metres down into the legendary Untersberg mountain, through spectacular underground landscapes reminiscent of The Lord of the Rings or the stories of Jules Verne. Our feature film 20,000 Metres Below Ground – The Riesending won the Audience Award at the renowned Tegernsee Mountain Film Festival. The film also took a prize at the World Premiere Awards in Los Angeles, received the World Merit Award from the National Speleological Society (USA), and was an Official Selection at the Kathmandu International Mountain Film Festival (KIMFF). The Riesending is by far the deepest and longest shaft cave in Germany, and one of the most difficult caves in the world to climb.

Our forests
now in cinema format
internationally

Our Forests is one of colourFIELD’s most successful and most highly awarded film series. During the series’ original broadcast on ZDF’s Terra X, colourFIELD co-founder Petra Höfer died unexpectedly on 6 June 2017. As co-writer and co-director, Petra played a decisive role in creating the series. We are now presenting, for the first time, an edited 90-minute English-language version in cinema format, based on the ARTE version. Our Forests has received numerous awards, including the highly prestigious Georg von Holtzbrinck Prize and the German Nature Film Award. Petra received both awards posthumously.
