Documentaries are audiovisual media productions
typically based on real people and events. They
often aim to provide accurate information instead of
invented narratives.
There are many types of documentaries; some of
them portray moments in a way that is not always
linear and can present characters and conflicts that
are complementary to the main narrative; others can

Read the text and write in your notebook two pieces of
information you consider important about documentaries.

A documentary is a type of film that aims to present important

aspects of our reality. They typically use a variety of storytelling
techniques, including interviews, archival footage, and reenactments
of moments. Documentaries can cover a wide variety of subjects,
situations, and themes, from current events to historical figures and
personal stories, what makes them a powerful way to inform,
educate, and tell different stories. Some of them can be funny,
others are dramatic and thought-provoking, helping us understand
the world around us and see things from different perspectives.
