“Every film is a documentary.” – Bill Nichols
I love that definition because I agree with it so deeply. I feel as every film that has been made and is going to get made is either a: 1) documentaries of wish-fulfillment (fictions) or 2) documentaries of social representation (non-fictions). Therefore, what I am going to say is greatly related to this course:
If anybody are looking for autobiographical film, Trip by Jhene Aiko (the singer), is a must watch film. This film lasts for a total for 23 or so minutes and goes into there journey that she went through after the death of her brother. Her and her brother had a very close relationship and his death (due to cancer) affected her greatly, specifically musically, emotionally, and future relationships with her boyfriends.
This short film is an emotional rollercoaster and serves as a perfect segue for her new album with the same title. If you have anytime, check it out.
