Keepers is great. Medusa thanks for mentioning Wild, Wild Country. All I pretty much watch is docs. I start on a series and then find myself jumping back to docs.

306 Hollywood (2018)

When two siblings undertake an archaeological excavation of their late grandmother's house, they embark on a magical-realist journey in search of what life remains in the objects we leave behind.

I really can't claim this is my favorite documentary as its not been released yet nor have i saw it but I do love the concept!

The "going through" possessions of the dearly departed always creeps me out a bit! When I "go" I don't want anyone digging through my stuff or god forbid fighting over it! Perhaps that is why I have always and will always remain a minimalist!

Favy depends on topic. The one that I saw recently and still has me going... damn ... is...

Saving Capitalism ... based on Robert Reich's book of the same name.

"Robert Reich, the Former Secretary of Labor of the United States, examines America’s fragile democracy and its fight for survival; as income and wealth go to the top, more Americans are left behind. Now it’s up to those ordinary Americans to change the rules."

Here lately I have been studying Russian history. In order to better understand world happenings and the impact history has had on our national and international dynamics, my focus has been on the Russian Revolution of 1917-18 and the overthrow of the last Tsar and European autocracy.

There are, quite literally, dozens of great documentaries on YouTube regarding not only the Revolution, but also the lives of the family and executions/murders of the last of the Romanov dynasty. I would heartily recommend these to anyone who, like me, is curious about Russian culture and politics.

Default Rotten on Netflix.............

Rotten, a new documentary series about corruption in the food world, is sure to spark some strong reactions. Created by Zero Point Zero Production, the team that works with Anthony Bourdain on Parts Unknown, these six hour-long episodes feature a number of farmers, fishermen, scientists, and doctors shedding light on the surprising and at times downright disgusting ways that common foodstuffs are brought to market.

This medical documentary has to be on of my favorites. Moore has done a few others that are well worth seeing.

Default Stacey Dooley

I`m not sure how accessible world wide these documentaries are, most have been aired on BBC channels but they are definitely worth a look if you are able. I will give you a warning many are not for the faint hearted so please check out the subject topics to avoid triggers. Stacey is an investigative journalist, 31 years old, fresh faced and slight built who is by no means afraid to question and challenge people on their activities and beliefs often to a level where you can be quite afraid for her, she is quite fearless. She champions women and children's causes around the world covering subjects such as former women captives fighting ISIS, child sexual exploitation in Japan and disappearances of indigenous women in Canada. Powerful, informative and thought provoking. Highly recommended.

"What the Health?", got me back on my vegan diet + no processed foods this week and I feel so much better. More energy, no more fatigue, no more achiness.

A great film.

Is anyone watching The Final Year?

It is an account of the foreign policy team and the State Department staff inner workings in Obama's last year in office and it choked me up watching Obama and his staff.

I saw it on Monday the 21st on HBO. I checked and there are multiple showings this week.

HBO also has an upcoming documentary next Monday night on the life of John McCain.

I don't mind saying that watching the previews choked me up, too.
