Derek Jarman is a uniquely British outsider: a painter, film-maker and a self-appointed enfant terrible with a paradoxical affection for tradition. He makes films as a painter or poet, rather than as a conventional film-maker; his subject matter includes Shakespeare's 'Tempest', a critique of Great Britain in Jubilee year, and 'Sebastiane', an openly gay interpretation of the saint's martyrdom. The programme includes clips from all his work, including his latest film, 'The Garden'.

Kiefer is Germany's most controversial and reclusive artist. He is also its most successful. The millions his work commands in the auction houses and his popularity with collectors belies the sombreness of the subject matter - Germany's past. Through Wagnerian legend, historical conjecture, and ancient mythology, Kiefer offers a personal view of Germany today that is both an exorcism and a warning. Never before filmed, Kiefer has collaborated with Arena in an unusual portrait in which he sets out to "disinter some corpses from Germany's past."

At the end of his life he was suffering from paranoid delusions that people were watching him through walls. Alan Lewens' film charts an Ortonesque tale of post-war Britain.

A show as big as the Lone Star State. This is an epic voyage through the wildest state in the union - from the honkytonks and dancehalls to the hill country and burning deserts; from big cities to towns so tiny they're not even on the map. In a departure from the style of Arena's previous TV nights, this programme takes the form of one continuous film with three intermissions - the Potter's Wheel of the 1990s, Texas style. The guide for the evening is Texas's only Jewish retired country singer turned detective: Kinky Friedman. In the spirit of his mystery novels, he goes on a quest deep into the heart of Texas to find out what makes it so darn different from everywhere else.

Fifty years ago Orson Welles's 'Citizen Kane', his first and most astonishing movie - which Welles directed, produced and played the starring role in, all at the age of 25 - received its British premiere. Welles's collaborators, production team, and actors describe its making; Welles himself is featured in BBC interviews from 1960 and 1982; and the real life press baron William Randolph Hearst, upon whom Kane is based, is recalled in rare footage. American film critic Pauline Kael analyses Kane's enduring appeal, and film historian Robert Carringer looks at the scenes that never made it to the screen.
