Irgendwie finde ich Spielfilme meistens langweilig. Im Kino penne ich meistens ein. Die Realität ist eigentlich immer interessanter. Dieser Thread soll dazu dienen, eine Sammlung interessanter Dokumentationen zu erstellen. Stellt mal ein, was ihr so findet. Ich hoffe, es ist keine Redundanz zu dem bereits bestehenden Doku-Thread gegeben. Viel Spaß beim anschauen.

WARNUNG: Einige der von mir verlinkten Filme sind nicht für Zartbesaitete. Minderjährige und Leute, die keine explizite Darstellung realer Gewalt sehen wollen/können, sollten darauf verzichten, sie anzusehen. Das insbesondere für „Death Squads“.

Night after night … all » death squads rampage through Iraq’s main cities. In Baghdad, up to a hundred bodies a day are dumped on the streets. Often they’ve been tortured with electric drills. Yet those doing the killing have little to do with al Qaeda or Sunni insurgents. The majority of the killings are carried out by Shia death squads who want to turn Iraq into a Shia state aligned to Iran.
This shocking film investigates the links between the death squads and high-ranking Shia politicians. It reveals how the Shia militia that these politicians control have systematically infiltrated and taken over police units and even entire government ministeries. It investigates how these units are closely linked to the death squads, indeed they often are the death squads. And the killers act with impunity — there’s little investigation into their activities.
The Death Squads

On December 23, 1985, two young men in Reno, Nevada put shotguns to their own heads after drinking and smoking marijuana as they listened to a record by the English rock group Judas Priest. Raymond Belknap shot himself fatally, while the other, James Vance, was grossly disfigured.
Their parents, claiming that subliminal messages in the heavy metal band’s songs mesmerized the boys into their bizarre suicide pact, filed suit against CBS Records. Centered around this non jurored trial, DREAM DECEIVERS looks at this tragedy through interviews with Vance, his and Belknap’s parents, other Reno „metalheads“, and members of Judas Priest.

„In the spring of 2003, three young Americans traveled to Africa in search of such as story. What they found was a tragedy that disgusted and inspired them. A story where children are weapons and children are the victims. The „Invisible Children: rough cut“ film exposes the effects of a 20 year-long war on the children of Northern Uganda. These children live in fear of abduction by rebel soldiers, and are being forced to fight as a part of violent army. This wonderfully reckless documentary is fast paced, with an MTV beat, and is something truly unique. To see Africa through young eyes is humorous and heart breaking, quick and informative – all in the very same breath. See this film, you will be forever changed.“

Stimmt, tolle Doku – leider um die Hälfte gekürzt, sie geht im Original, meines Wissens, 18 Std. Typische Ken Burns Doku. Von sind ist noch lobend die Dokus „Der Amerikanische Bürgerkrieg“, „West – die Eroberung des Westens“ und „Jazz“ zu nennen – „Prohibition“, „Dust Bowl“, „The War“ und „Baseball“ kenne ich leider noch nicht.
