Far-right Europe: From Electoral Success to Neo-Nazi Extremism | Java Documentary

Oct 22, 2024 | The extreme right has won the European elections in France, Italy and Belgium and has gained about a quarter of MEPs in the new parliament. The xenophobia, patriarchy, or authoritarianism that they preach are also present in the programs of parties that are not even considered ultra-right. Issues that were thought to be overcome, such as gender violence, the use of firearms or the death penalty, are being reintroduced into the debate.

The documentary Europe: The Rise of the Extreme Right has investigated the xenophobic parties of Sweden, Italy and Spain and explains the reasons for their growth. They cut freedoms, assume power, and attack the rule of law.

This documentary was produced by Corporacio Catalana De Mitjans Audiovisuals and directed by Albert Elfa, Ricard Belis. It was first released in 2019.
