A documentary television channel that celebrated its first anniversary in the summer of 2024, continues its mission in 2026 to bring viewers all-day broadcasting of inspiring and diverse documentaries from around the world, primarily in the Slovak language.
The program selection includes a wide range of original Slovak titles as well as exclusive international acquisitions from renowned creators. The content covers all documentary genres – from historic and political events, through portraits of important personalities, to music and social phenomena – and is designed to appeal to a wide range of viewers.
The year 2026 will bring a collection of powerful and emotional stories. A special title is the four-part series A Tale of Two Sisters, which uses parallel destinies to introduce exceptional female personalities: Anne Frank and Eve Schloss, Amelia Earhart and her sister Muriel, Jackie Kennedy and Lee Radziwill, and British princesses Elizabeth II and Margaret. Each of these stories is a unique testimony to courage, determination, and the various forms of sisterhood.
Strong emotions will also be evoked by the two-part miniseries Rock Legends, which commemorates John Lennon – a musical visionary, poet, and symbol of a generation – as well as Freddie Mercury and the legendary band Queen, who forever changed the face of world music.
Fans of historical and political documentaries can look forward to exclusive premieres: John Fitzgerald Kennedy: The Road to the White House, the story of the charismatic US president who managed to appeal to the masses; and Martin Luther King in the FBI’s sights, a portrait of the preacher and civil rights activist who inspired millions but also aroused the fears of the government.
Music as the voice of generations comes to life in the documentary Protest songs, which charts the most iconic songs associated with courage, civic stance, and the desire for change.
In 2026, JOJ Svet continues to bring you documentaries that are not only a reflection of history and the present, but also a challenge to think about values, freedom, and the power of human stories.
