The creator of the documentary presented the subject of the film with such a masterful distancing. For most of the documentary, I felt a lack of the creator's opinion on the piece which allowed me to really invest in the story being told as opposed to mindless being spoon fed by someone who is trying to figure out what was witnessed just as much as I am. The blunt frankness of the living conditions made me actively uncomfortable. It felt like a call to action without the actual call, which was very effective. The allowance of storytelling from the source as opposed to through a medium made viewing the documentary much more important.
