“The purpose of a documentary is twofold: to educate and to entertain. The news media ideally is primarily looking to educate. A documentary fits into that. But there is a sense of film and a sense of going to see a movie and cinema that you should pursue when you are making a documentary. You want to make it beautiful, engaging and you want to make a really great story while also telling an honest story about an important issue,” he says.
