Narrative Documentary
Narrative Documentary films, also known as 'docufiction' or 'documentary fiction', blend elements of documentary filmmaking with narrative storytelling. These films often use a combination of interviews, archival footage, and scripted reenactments to convey true events or subjects in an engaging and cinematic manner. The main focus is to present real-life stories while incorporating fictional elements or dramatic structure for an immersive and entertaining viewing experience. Popular examples include The Figo Affair: The Transfer That Changed Football, Our Father, and Close Encounters of the Fifth Kind.
