Documentary about internet pioneer Josh Harris, who had a surveillance-as-art project in 1999, which placed more than one hundred people in a human terrarium under New York City, with webcams broadcasting everything.
Following this, he broadcast his home life online leading to the breakdown of his relationship at the time.
One of my favourite documentaries of all time.

šØin-depth documentary about the US far right following three different men from before the 2020 election through to the January 6th insurrection (quite literallyāthey went and filmed there in person). the filmmakers began work on the film in 2018 and started filming in 2020. itās really interesting, and certainly very relevant today!
also. about half of the showings have Q&As moderated by other filmmakers and activists - tonightās q&a w the filmmakers (7:30 showing) will be moderated by Laura Poitras (Citizenfour, All the Beauty and the Bloodshed)
go see it! (this is in NYC, but i believe they are bringing it elsewhere)

iām sure thereās a doc iāve seen before this one where i ālearned moreā or whatever but at least in recent memory this one feels like an all-timer; the subject matter is interesting, the interviews are engaging, the found footage is immaculate, and the graphics feel so on-theme that you kinda forget that someone drew that, and that it wasnāt something akin to found footage. also just manages the tone really, really well ā the edit tells the story in a way that feels really intuitive and leaves you at the end with a sense of melancholy that you finished it because you just want it to keep going
