Documentary films are non-fictional motion pictures that document reality for the purposes of instruction, education, or maintaining a historical record. They explore real-life events, people, and phenomena through various storytelling techniques, employing interviews, archival footage, observations, and the filmmaker’s personal perspective. Unlike fictional films, which prioritize narrative and characters created by screenwriters, documentaries aim to portray actual events and experiences, often highlighting social issues, cultural phenomena, or personal stories.
