Dr. Svensmark has not produced any documentaries, only this original research.

"It was long thought that clouds were caused by climate change, but now we see that climate change is driven by clouds."

xxx.lanl.gov - abstract of CLOUD study proposal

The CLOUD collaboration will replicate Svenmark's cloud chamber experiment at the CERN Proton Synchroton using a man-made source of ionizing radiation - a few-GeV hadron beam comprising protons and pions - that "closely duplicates the composition and energy of the cosmic rays and hadronic showers found in the upper atmosphere."

arxiv.org - on the Antarctic climate anomaly

If changes in cloudiness play a part in climate change, their effect changes sign in Antarctica.

The albedo is already very high in Antarctica (regardless of cloud cover), so wrt influence of cloud cover on climate, greenhouse effect dominates there, whereas reflective effect is greater than greenhouse effect for rest of the globe.
