I Love Documentaries

So documentaries are for sure one of my favorite things to watch in my spare time. They have a lot to say, and can provide you with a ton of information that for the most part will always be on topic. I really enjoy Netflix documentaries, documentaries on food, and Planet Earth. My personal favorite documentary is a documentary called Life in a Day. This has been done before, but basically these people told everyone, show us your daily life. From morning wake up to going to bed, show us your day. People from all over the world sent in footage, these guys sorted it and gave us a documentary.


You can find a documentary on just about anything, and if it hasn't been made it's probably in the making! From a telling of the story of The Kings of Leon, to Woman's rights in third world countries, people have something to say about, and documentaries are a pathway for this communication. It's the next step in the interconnectedness of the world. I can speak to anyone willing to talk to me I want around the world, but like any conversation you have with people it's hard to get the whole story, to see the whole picture of what it means to be them. Documentaries give me a reference, a way to see into the life of vegetarians, warrior tribes, social activists, Siberian Leopards,  revolutionaries, cancer patients, Buddhist monks, Lions, the list goes on. In no way shape or form do documentaries make me an expert on anything, but they give me a deeper glimpse into to things that before I would be limited to a Wikipedia page. I love documentaries, because that make more information more accessible, and inspire learning.
