ESSENTIAL DOCUMENTARIES

IN TIERS, EACH IN YEAR ORDR, WITH A LITTLE ELITE SET FIRST. I’m including some films which blur the line between reality and fiction (People on Sunday, The War Game, Letter from my Village, My Winnipeg, F for Fake), drama (Close Up, Our Hitler) or avant-garde (Sleep Has Her House. As I Was Moving Ahead..). Triumph of the Will? Monstrous, included as a warning and useful for a double bill with Night and Fog
