Here is the end of a touching story about the Wendy Williams documentary. It's from the Washington Post.
I need some help: what is an "EP"?!
My google-fu is weak here. The article cites it as if everybody and his grandmother knows it. Hello?
(Maybe I shouldn't add the admission that I have, or at least had, no idea who Wendy Williams is. But the article is poignant all the same.)
5 minutes? Idk if I’d call that a documentary.
Looking forward to trying it though!

Saw Blackbox Diaries tonight at a film festival tonight. This is an incredibly well-done documentary. It is more than one woman's struggle for justice in Japan. It is a real look at how individuals deal with trauma.
She even begins the movie addressing the difficult topics in the film and encouraging the audience to take care of ourselves.

The speech below, given by an Israeli on the acceptance of a prize for best documentary at this year's Berlinale for a film about the West Bank, accurately and succinctly describes the apartheid regime imposed by Israel.
He (an Israeli Jew) is being accused of Antisemitism by the entire media and political establishment in Germany.
The dissemination of specious mainstream narratives (bordering insanity in this case) is a fascinating phenomenon.

Documentary sequel "Food, Inc 2" covers a lot of ground,
from the conditions of workers to local farming initiatives,

I'm watching the Netflix documentary "Turning Point: The Bomb and the Cold War" - it's pretty good for a TV show. So far I've done three of the nine hour-long episodes.
I really appreciated how they raised the Rosenberg case (and the evidence that came to light after the fall of the Soviet Union) and tied it and McCarthyism to TFG via Roy Cohn.

OK, I'm late, but I've just watched this CNBC documentary on Norway's success with EVs (cars, but also ferries charging 3.5MW!). It's really worth watching, and also discusses the challenges, eg car vs bus, reducing incentives, charging issues.
Note how the European Union (Norway is not a member, but complies with the legislation) is mentioned several times as a key driver, e.g. easy payment systems for EV charging, battery recycling.
Lots of folks in Aotearoa NZ will know of Don McGlashan - a documentary on him is being created, and the producer is trying to fun the release. I've just made a modest contribution, because I'd love to see this! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/shirl
