The documentary movement

The documentary movement is a style of filmmaking focused on real-life events, issues, and stories. Its goal is to inform, educate, or raise awareness by presenting authentic footage and stories without fiction. Documentaries aim to explore topics like social justice, history, or science, often prompting viewers to think critically or take action. They rely on factual accuracy, research, and storytelling techniques to engage audiences while maintaining credibility. This movement has evolved with technology, making documentary filmmaking more accessible and diverse, ultimately fostering a deeper understanding of the world around us.
