Documentary journalism

Documentary journalism is a form of storytelling that uses film, video, or photography to explore real-world issues, events, or individuals. It involves thorough research, interviews, and footage collection to present an accurate, in-depth view of topics often beyond the scope of traditional news reports. The goal is to inform and raise awareness, providing viewers with a nuanced understanding of complex subjects. Unlike scripted films, documentaries aim for factual integrity and often advocate for social change by uncovering truths and giving voice to overlooked perspectives.
