English term or phrase: feature

What does "feature" mean in a film script? Is it translated into German?

The script is about the Rolex Middle Sea Race, and the corresponding commentary seems to be a sort of excursion:

"Sailing has been in the Ripards’ blood for generations and this maritime clan has won the Middle Sea race five times.
John Ripard Sr. was one of the founders of the race along with his brother Paul.
Paul’s son Christian is a professional sailor currently onboard Moneypenny.
John Ripard Jr. is helming onboard Strait Dealer while his sons 19 year-old Sebastian and 16-year old Tom are on Artie."

Feature / (Kurz)porträt

Explanation:
Da hier der "Familienclan" vorgestellt wird, vermute ich stark, es geht in Richtung (Kurz)porträt oder (denglisch) Feature.

Die Definition unter http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feature_(Medien) scheint hier nicht ganz zu passen.

Wobei ein Feature auch ein Spielfilm sein kann, aber das können wir bei dieser Inhaltsangabe wohl ausschliessen.
