    About 2020s Documentary Movies

    The 2020s

    The 2020s opened with theatrical exhibition in crisis and streaming absorbing much of the mid-budget film. What's emerged is a split market: event spectacle in cinemas, and almost everything else finding its audience at home.

    Documentary

    Documentary covers everything from observational vérité to essay film and true crime. The form's best work argues rather than merely records, and the last two decades of streaming demand have made it a commercial genre as much as an artistic one.
