Narrated by actor Kevin Bacon, DAD'S SECRET WAR: FRANCE 1944 focuses on two top-secret World War II organizations - the OSS (Office of Strategic Services) and the British SOE (Special Operations Executive) , American and British organizations responsible for silent, unseen, highly classified missions of critical importance to defeating the Nazis. The documentary shares the riveting, true story of an American who joined the British SOE and was parachuted into France with a small team just after D-Day to organize the French Resistance into a cohesive army. The mission was to stop Germany's most feared troops from reaching Normandy in the days after the D-Day landings of June 6, 1944. While missions such as this were classified as "Top Secret" by the American OSS and "Most, Most Secret" by Britain's SOE, some records were partially declassified in 1998, revealing the collective courage, risks, failures, and successes of the brave men and women who volunteered to be secret agents.
Narrated by actor Kyle Chandler (Friday Night Lights, Bloodline), PELELIU: WWII's MOST WELL-PRESERVED BATTLEFIELD explores the impact that World War II had on a small island in the Palau archipelago in Micronesia. The remote island of Peleliu is considered the most well-preserved battlefield in the world - a living testament to one of the Marines' most bitter and eye-opening fights in World War II. Because it is illegal to remove any relic from the island, the battlefield remains almost as it was when the fight here ended in the fall of 1944. This year marks the 80th anniversary of the Marine and Army battle, which was supposed to last three days but instead took 72 days of hard fighting to eliminate the Japanese from 500 caves on the island. While the film focuses on the island today, viewers also hear from Marines who had to battle on the ridges and in the valleys of Peleliu. It also explores how Cleared Ground Demining, a British organization working on the island today, is attempting to remove any live ordnance remaining from the fight on Peleliu. In just 10 years, the non-profit company has removed more than 60,000 bombs, hand grenades, mines, artillery shells, and other live munitions.

American Coup: Wilmington 1898 tells the little-known story of a deadly race massacre and carefully orchestrated insurrection in North Carolina's largest city in 1898 -- the only coup d'etat in the history of the US. Stoking fears of "Negro Rule," self-described white supremacists used intimidation and violence to destroy Black political and economic power and overthrow Wilmington's democratically-elected, multi-racial government. Dozens of Black residents were murdered, and thousands were banished. The story of what happened in Wilmington was suppressed for decades until descendants and scholars began to investigate. Today, many of those descendants -- Black and White -- seek the truth about this intentionally buried history.
The life of John F. Kennedy is so often defined by his death. His assassination in November 1963 came to be seen as a turning point for America, a shift from an age of innocence and hope to one of violence and change.

His personal life, including many different illnesses, was often hidden from the public. His glamorous marriage to Jackie and his meteoric rise to become a Senator and eventually President captured the imagination of the public.
