I grew up thinking that documentaries were just like those crappy CNN docs where they interview the family of somebody famous who died... BORING!! This doc really showed me that there can be creative direction in this medium. Shoutout to all those suicidal penguins - u so sexy aha
super cool - bleakly answers the question of ”what” a pseudo-influencer does. obvi an extreme example & guy’s a character but def captures a crazy moment in time
here are some favorites off the top of my head.. Zabardast: i'm partial to climbing/expedition docs, but this one is especially good. a travel diary of a group of voyagers exploring the remote lands of Pakistan to freeride ski down its mountains. Night Fog: very heartbreaking look at WWII concentration camps Dark Days: documents the lives of the homeless people living in the tunnels underneath New York City, without being intrusive or voyeuristic Don't Look Back: self-explanatory (Minnesota's sweetheart)
