Are you both located in Germany? Perhaps it is filtered to German IP addresses (US sites do that all the time).

Endless "connecting to server" here as well. Even when I'm using a German proxy.

Same here.
I´m located in Austria - but can watch all the other videos on the arte website. Only Gursky doesn´t work.
But i´ve already seen it on TV ;)

They´ll show it again on 13th September, 11:25 MET.

I just called them up to ask them why it does not work. Only Germans and French have the right to see it! It's q question of rights, I was told (before the person just hang up on me).

I can't see the video, either, but it's probably copyrighted with limited usage rights, so sharing it would likely break laws in most jurisdictions. The mere fact that they have blocked non-German IPs (assuming here) shows that they don't want it spread outside - in the hopes of licensing the documentary abroad.

Ironic to see such a request on a photography forum, as pro photographers rely on copyright for their income as much as documentary producers.

I'm located in Switzerland and didn't use any trick to watch it. If it's not a technical issue then they might restrict to countries where ARTE can be watched on TV set. A workaround would be to try to use a german or french proxy.

I am based in London and I could not watch the documentary either , but after searching on it on you tube I could find all 4 parts and watch it. I highly recommend it , it's a fascinating film. I am rather intrigued what kind of software and workstation his retoucher used to puzzle the final image together ? Loved the final result !

Watched it on youtube as the above link does not work anymore. Below are the links from part1 to part 4 for your ease. Wonderful work of Gursky!! Laudable Man!!!

Interesting to see how large and mid-format with digital enhancement with Paintbox is made to work to create some historic pictures. I am still a bit conservative about extreme post-processing. ;-) Does not make me feel comfortable to claim a post-processed images as "my photographs" and they do not serve the historical objectives of photography besides artistic. Call me 'conservative'!!! ;-)
