Doc Suggestions From Our Viewers - Ep 1: Zeitgeist, American Movie and The Act of Killing
Introducing our new interview series “What Are You Watching?”, where we ask Doc Weekly followers to give us their top documentary recommendations.
For our first episode we met Matt, who had his mind blown by the ‘Zeitgeist’ movies as a kid, was inspired by the cult film ‘American Movie’ and reckons ‘The Greatest Movie Ever Sold’, a film about product placement that is funded by product placement, is the most “WTF” doc he’s ever seen.
Get in touch if you’re a doc-lover and would like to be next in the series and follow us on Instagram and Facebook to catch our future episodes.
