Description

Sylvia and Michel kick off the episode from San Sebastian, Spain, reflecting on their exhausting journey, unexpected Airbnb passport checks, and broader concerns about privacy and surveillance. They dive into their documentary work, recounting a chaotic but revealing interview, a relative who recognized a person in an old photo and mentioned a nobleman named Von Trotha. Later, they speak with “Jura”, a former KGB intelligence officer, who contrasts traditional espionage with modern surveillance. The episode delves into the challenges of filming, language barriers, and high-profile connections, revealing how Medy Roc was more than a social hub—it was a crossroads of power, politics, and espionage.
