in some ways we are telling that story to a new generation. but we are also hopefully exploring it through point of view and what it means for her to be kind of. so associated with some of the worst times like. the documentary tina gives a chronological overview of all the ups and downs in the life of the woman who was born as anna mae public while it offers few new insights it is thrilling to watch. this next film could not be more different in anime says 2 filmmakers meet stefan who is in prison for having murdered a woman in order to interview him. and his response of his story are retold by 2 puppet tears. next time i'm talk to we want to. look sometimes looks really threatening sometimes also really child larg but you know all the time the person is a performance you know it's always an interpretation of the way that we use the the way the tears react to what they're performing a moment. the directors try to avoid a supposedly objective point of view because their film gradually reveals that there are at least 2 truths but the justice system requires an unambiguous account of events because only then can it declare the accused guilty or innocent this is an exceptionally intelligent film but also an uncomfortable one raising more questions than it can or wants to answer. multiple questions indeed and to answer them joining me from bonn is our film expert scott roxboro a scot's 2 very different documentaries 15 there obviously with different subjects but also very different approaches is the documentary as a form being taken apart or deconstructed in a way. yeah definitely with one of these films i mean it tina is a fairly conventional music documentary albeit by about a very unconventional music star but the crime doc am a nice this is really doing something different i mean typically in a true crime documentary you expect the filmmakers to find out the truth and tell it to you but the way the filmmakers here in am nice is where the way they construct the movie by using these puppets by putting themselves into the film and showing you exactly how they are building the film they really undermine that and they sort of question. whether or not they can ever find the truth and that this is really just their interpretation of events and by doing so they also question the basis of the criminal justice system which claims to be able to find out a motive that is to say why a killer murdered someone they say in this film that's ultimately unknowable. interesting now another film from germany is this have a man and his class why did you like this one so much. yeah this is also a different style of documentary it's the fly on the wall dog and this follows mr bachman was a teacher at elementary school and with his class but this is a small village in germany with around 70 percent migrant or 'd market children or children of immigrants and it's very simple documentary basically we just spent time in the classroom watching the kids watching the teacher very very simple story but i found it incredibly moving and very very emotional so what did we learn from the film actually that's seem so interesting. yeah i mean what i found so interesting is we hear a lot about these kids kids like this i should say we hear a lot about them in the german news there is often talked about very hysterical manner that these are kids not learning german that they're not integrating that they might be dangerous political extremists but we almost never get to hear the kids themselves to hear them talk about their own lives their dreams and their hopes and i know anyone who is who thinks they have an opinion about children like this i would recommend they watch this movie because i think it could really change your mind. ok so that's that's certainly an interesting viewpoint documentaries are booming right now scott what do you suppose this year's crop at the ballot tells us about where nonfiction film is actually going in the future. i mean berlin i mean this year the the the documentaries and i mean they span the entire spectrum from very conventional to completely experimental but what i think they all show is that documentary filmmakers right now despite the success or maybe because of the success of documentary films are struggling struggling not only with what stories they want to tell but also how they want to tell them and and even what role documentary film should play i think with chris wright the one of the directors and he said it best he said a lot of people may watch a documentary they think they're watching reality but we should remind them that documentaries are a film form and that this is made by subjective filmmakers with a subjective view of the world and they should even try to be depicting the truth ok that's very interesting and we have a tiny little bit more time scott so i'm going to sneak in another question what would from what you've seen so far your favorite thus far as that as a tip for our audience. well back when i thought was great as a documentary that would be my pick if you want something on the fiction side memory box which is a lebanese film but sort of mixes based on a real story sort of mixes documentary and fiction that's my favorite of the things i've seen so far thanks very much for those couple of tips insightful as always documentary films taking taking the cake in many instances at the belly nala thanks very much scott roxboro for that analysis we'll see you again tomorrow. all this week in the lead up to international women's day on
