Violates Ethics of Documentary Filmmaking
SoftStcks171728 January 2023
Severely biased. All of the interviewees that form the narrative for this piece are on the same side of the aisle. The interviewees treat Obama's handling of the invasion of Crimea as a small mistake and quickly move passed it. The section on former president Trump is a total beat down, even though he's the only president in this piece under who's watch Russia hasn't invaded another country. The filmmakers then quickly skip over Biden's handling of the withdrawal from Afghanistan, which seems like an extremely relevant topic to cover. I'm no fan of Trump but what I am a fan of his the responsibility documentary filmmakers have in upholding democracy. Start interviewing people with differing perspectives and let the viewer decide.
