Documentaries

These pieces are based in fact and actuality. While they aim to probe or document a particular subject, the filmmakers can take much creative license in how they treat their topic. The films may be intended for television or feature distribution, or a more limited exhibition, but they are intended for a broader audience than a typical home movie.
