  • eSports: todo o nada
    E1
    eSports: todo o nadaThere are professional video game players who are superstars with millionaire salaries. But also thousands of kids who aspire to be like them and who sacrifice their studies and their social life, often for nothing. Who are they? How much do they earn? How do you get to the top? We dig in into the figures of a sector that for many is the sport of the future, destined to rival F1, basketball or even football.
  • Nacidos bajo la boina
    E2
    Nacidos bajo la boinaEvery day we breathe in hundreds of toxic substances that, in addition to multiplying cases of cancer, strokes or heart attacks, affect our ability to reproduce. Did you know that in developed countries the semen quality has been reduced by half in the last 40 years? And that in Spain 58% of young men have an abnormal semen quality and that things are getting worse? In which region of Spain do we have the best semen?, and the worst? How serious are all these facts and statistics?
  • Madres jóvenes en un país de viejos
    E3
    Madres jóvenes en un país de viejosAlthough in Spain the age of women having their first child is only increasing, the phenomenon of teenage mothers remains and even increases in some regions. Every year more than 2,500 minors give birth in Spain; 2,680 in 2016. What profile do these girls have? How did they get to this situation? How has motherhood changed their lives?
  • La escalera del maltrato adolescente
    E4
    La escalera del maltrato adolescenteIn 2017, 51 women were killed by their partners; a dramatic figure that has been reduced since the Law on Gender Violence was passed. The paradox is that, while we managed to reduce the victims among the elderly, 27.4% of those under 29 years of age believe that gender-based violence is normal behavior within the couple. What is happening with young people? What can we do? In this chapter, 'Binary' addresses gender violence in adolescence; a staggered process that culminates in physical violence and begins with control.
  • Jóvenes y Ejército: ¿Patriotismo o estabilidad laboral?
    E5
    Jóvenes y Ejército: ¿Patriotismo o estabilidad laboral?After the abolition of the mandatory military service, the recruitment rates in Spain were on their lowest point. But the economical crisis caused many young people to see the Armed Forces as a job opportunity again. In the last 4 years almost 200,000 young people have tried to enter the Army. Who are they? What is their routine? Why do they do it? What is their main reason to join? Tradition and patriotism or the perspective of an stable job?
  • Precariedad en tiempos de economía colaborativa
    E6
    Precariedad en tiempos de economía colaborativaInnovation or precariousness? This is one of the many questions 'Binario' tries to address, portraying the lights and shadows of an industry -the 'delivery' sector- born under the protection of digital revolution and collaborative economy. For many people, this sector has changed their lives. But...what are the working conditions? What do its supporters and detractors have to say about it? What about the employees and consumers?
  • Tú a Madrid y yo a Molina de Aragón
    E7
    Tú a Madrid y yo a Molina de Aragón80% of Spaniards live in cities, while many villages become emptier year after year. It is a global trend especially pronounced in our country: empty Spain coexists with metropolitan areas, which do not stop gaining population at the expense of rural areas. Especially young people, attracted to the city in search of opportunities for both personal and professional growth that they are unable to find in their places of origin. But does it really compensate for this urban concentration? More and more people are considering whether it is worth living in Madrid or if, on the contrary, betting on the field can allow them to save more even with lower earnings. Who are these young people who go against the tide and stay in the villages? And of those who live in the capital, how many consider taking root in the asphalt?
