About
You may appreciate this if you want a hard-hitting, conversation-starting documentary about violence, accountability, and social change; Not for you if you avoid deeply distressing real-world stories or want a more balanced, wide-ranging investigation like The Act of Killing.
Pros: urgent social questions; powerful, unsettling interviews; sparks debate | Cons: very distressing subject; uneven expert commentary; limited narrative balance
