FEATURED POST

 

 

“WAKE UP!” BELLOWS THE TRUTH-SEEKING DOCUMENTARY. Another poignant documentary has managed to weave together crucial information and discarded details that were obscured by neglect, or shame, or greed. As the narratives corroborated by empathetic facts and figures flow, the emotions that were safely contained by the viewers begin to flow. That is the power of a transformative documentary. 

Individuals are often compelled to dogmatically fulfill the many responsibilities demanded of them to maintain or elevate their standard of living. Society is tempted to solely focus on excelling at these responsibilities at the expense of pausing to gain awareness of the actual realities of our lives. Documentaries challenge the aspects of our lives that are mindlessly accepted and expected. Documentaries wonder aloud why our lives are the way they are and whether it is in our best interest. Documentaries tell stories about the misrepresented, observe who or what has been disregarded, speak for those rendered voiceless, educate on stigmatized topics that others avoid, and share information that many in bad faith endeavor to keep hidden. Documentaries invite viewers along as they embark on courageous journeys to investigate the truth. Documentaries range from uncovering social injustices to celebrating remarkable yet overlooked people, events, or places. Novelty Sense is dedicated to offering in-depth insights into how particular documentaries challenge the many forces that activate and operate our world. We will unabashedly offer input to the questions from documentaries that many are too timid to confront. Welcome to Documentary Commentary!
