This year's DOC NYC festival streams online so you can binge-watch the newest, most insightful films from the comfort of your own couch. Usually, documentaries explore a niche area that most people don't know about and often delve far deeper than the average news source. So far in the fest, I’ve come up with these capsule write ups to convey a good sense of a flick without giving away the good stuff. I’ll be bringing a similar, follow-up piece for the remainder of the films I’ve seen. The 2020 DOC NYC festival runs from November 11-19.
