Oscars 2021: Best Documentary Short Film Nominees Reviewed
Shaun Munro reviews 2021’s Oscar-nominated documentary short films…
The final instalment of our three-part series delving into this year’s short-form Oscar nominees tackles the Best Documentary Short field. Of the three short film categories, this collective is by far the most pervasively upsetting and difficult-to-watch, but their journalistic, humanistic value absolutely speaks for itself.
Several of the shorts are content-rich enough that they could easily have been expanded into fully-formed features without losing any of their impact, though this bite-sized presentation also has many positives of its own, ensuring under-represented global issues are given concise, accessible platforms.

When Respawn Entertainment and Oculus Studio created 2020’s
Medal of Honor: Above and Beyond it wasn’t just a wall-to-wall WWII first-person shooter, the studios wanted to honour those that fought by helping to create several short documentaries. One of those was Colette, which has received an Oscar nomination. If you’ve not played the videogame, this week sees the arrival of
Colette on Oculus TV so you don’t need to.
Directed by filmmaker Anthony Giacchino and producer Alice Doyard,
Colette follows one of the last surviving members of the French resistance, 92-year-old Colette Marin-Catherine. “As a young girl, Colette Marin-Catherine fought the Nazis as a member of the French Resistance. Since 1945, she has refused to set foot in Germany. That changes when a history student named Lucie enters her life and encourages her to visit the concentration camp where the Nazis killed her brother,” explains the synopsis.
