Data Sources is a series of investigations conducted using open source databases, a new frontier of investigation.
By involving the viewer in all stages of its investigations, Sources explores the flaws within major European balances and goes beyond official versions: human rights violations, institutional failures, state affairs, abuse of power, or criminal exploitation of the planet. This magazine aims to expose the mechanics of misinformation that OSINT (Open Source Intelligence), a new and fruitful resource for investigative journalism, combats with its own tools.
By utilizing social networks, freely accessible online databases, satellite imagery, and boat or plane tracking tools, Open Source Intelligence reclaims an Internet widely exploited for deceptive purposes. By adapting it for the first time to a unique video format with pedagogy and rigor, ARTE aims to both dismantle the manipulation of facts and combat the growing distrust towards the media.
An immersive journey into the heart of Europe’s rail network.
On board the trains and in the bustle of the workshops, the film takes us alongside the women and men of Rail Logistics Europe, from Portugal’s Atlantic coast to the eastern borders. Here, every day, they build far more than logistical flows: they connect regions, bring economies closer together, and accelerate the transition toward more sustainable transport.
Conceived as a living manifesto, the film embodies the Group’s values — “We Care, We Connect, We Deliver” — and reveals what makes it strong: expertise, collective commitment, and the ability to transform European logistics through the most low-carbon solutions on the market, across the entire value chain.
The web series “Sur les sentiers de transitions” explores the pathways of ecological transitions across territories, told through the experiences of women and men, offering a different perspective on public policies and the POPSU Transitions research-action projects that document them.
The Rouen Normandy Metropolis, a millennia-old urban core shaped by the Seine, is now reinventing its relationship with the river, balancing its industrial heritage with the challenges of adapting to climate change. In this territory of 500,000 inhabitants, initiatives led by cultural actors, associations, and citizens are multiplying, aiming to reclaim and inhabit the river through a cultural Seine. The renewed proximity to water reflects contemporary social expectations, from the search for coolness to flood risk management and the revival of social bonds.
This film highlights the ecological, cultural, and social challenges of a river-based metropolis in transition.
On behalf of the communication agency Angie, CAPA Pictures produced a series of employee portraits for Castorama’s internal magazine.
The employees were photographed in their working environment—in-store, in front of the shop, or in storage areas— with a focus on highlighting each subject.
The shoots were carried out in around ten regional stores (Grenoble, Toulon, Besançon, etc.) by local photographers, working independently with lightweight lighting setups, to capture spontaneous, smiling and authentic portraits.
For each portrait, 20 edited and retouched images were delivered.
In the aftermath of the November 13, 2015 attacks, a group of terrorists is on the run and preparing to strike again. A woman will help the police locate and stop them. Sonia — not her real name — recounts those crucial days.
Through her courage, this mother saved lives but was forced to change her identity to escape Islamist retaliation.
November 13th, Sonia’s Choice blends documentary and fiction to bring to life this extraordinary story.
To expand its image library, Air Liquide entrusted CAPA Pictures with the production of a photo report in South Korea, focusing on industrial activities and hydrogen end-use applications.
The shoot covered operations at the Daesan hydrogen filling center, with an extension to end-user activities at a refueling station and on the road. We have also produced pictures illustrating the activities of the new ALAM Molybdenum plant in Hwaseong.
Conducted over three shooting days, combining ground and drone photography with a local photographer and his assistant, the project resulted in the delivery of approximately 400 images.
In recent years, professional rugby has seen an alarming number of players forced to end their careers early. The reason: the lasting effects of concussions. The taboo is starting to break. Medical teams are growing, concussion protocols are becoming routine, and players are finally speaking out.
But far from the big budgets of the Top 14, far from video referees and giant screens, are amateur players truly aware of the danger? Every weekend, 360,000 of them take to the pitch with passion — and just as many risk damaging their brains.
My name is Lucie, and I started playing rugby when I was 13. I’ve had my share of injuries. I treated them, then got back on the field. But after the four concussions I suffered, I always returned far too soon. I never saw a doctor. I never worried. Today, I have no lasting effects. I’m lucky.
I’m a journalist, and I want to tell you how many of us underestimate head trauma. I want to tell you the stories of those who weren’t so lucky — those who took a second hit, one right after another. I want to tell you about the hesitant progress, the collective denial, and the culture of sacrifice that still puts our brains on the line.
To bring a new energy to its visual communication, EDF called on the expertise of CAPA Pictures to produce a shoot centered on a more human, embodied and emotional universe.
Through strong lifestyle imagery drawn from everyday life scenes, the project aimed to capture expression, gesture and spontaneity, in order to showcase authentic and credible moments.
This ambition resulted in an expressive, fresh, pop and accessible aesthetic, echoing EDF’s mission to support everyone towards a more sustainable electric world.
The project involved an extensive pre-production phase, including location casting, casting of 8 actors, artistic direction and scene breakdown, followed by one full shooting day with a complete on-site team: art director, photographer, assistant, stylist, prop stylist, make-up artist, production manager and project director.
In total, 250 images were delivered, with 55 selected by the client.
Between 1979 and 1987, a far-left group set France ablaze. Armed robberies, bombings, assassinations. They struck hard and vanished in a cloud of explosives, leaflets scattered to the wind, and relentless ideological claims. Their war name? Action Directe.
More than 80 attacks, 26 injured, and 12 dead in less than ten years. Stunned, the French discovered plastered everywhere the portraits of these young women and men who looked like ordinary people, yet seemed unstoppable. Thus began a long and intense manhunt that would end with the arrest of the group’s leadership.
The French Revolution changed the history of the western world, with its radical new ideas of democracy and equality. Danton, Robespierre, Saint-Just, Marat, Camille Desmoulins, Mirabeau, Rouget de L’Isle…. It’s official: the Revolution was a male affair. But what about Pauline Léon, Claire Lacombe, Olympe de Gouge or Théroigne de Méricourt? Their stories have long been forgotten, but a new generation of French researchers has brought these fascinating revolutionaries to light. Told in their own words, with beautiful animation, our film delves into the French Revolution with a feminine twist – a fascinating new look at one of history’s most monumental turning points.
