I love documentaries. There are so many amazing ones and I regret that they don't get as much attention as the biggest fiction films, even though I love those too.
Here are two documentaries that immediately spring to mind because they made a big impression on me:
Dark Days (2000)
The Act of Killing (2012)
If you can stomach it...The Act of Killing is an amazing documentary. Harrowing stuff.
Absolutely! If you haven't watched it yet, Dark Days is also harrowing, if not as much as The Act of Killing.
