Cetățeanul patru 2014
Documentar
În Iunie 2013, Laura Poitras și reporterul Glenn Greenwald au zburat la Hong Kong pentru prima din numeroasele întâlniri cu Edward Snowden. Ea și-a adus camera video cu ea. Filmul care a rezultat din această serie de întâlniri tensionate este absolut sui generis (de genul său) în istoria cinemaului: un emoționator 100% din viața reală desfășurându-se minut cu minut înaintea ochilor tăi. Poitras este un făcătoare de filme grozavă și curajoasă, dar ea este de asemenea și o povestitoare iscusită: ea strânge multe zile de întrebări, așteptare, confirmare, privind reacția lumii și agonizând pentru următoarea mișcare, intr-un studiul al caracterului lui Snowden și o poveste care te va lăsa la marginea scaunului tău în timp ce merge implacabil către concluzia lui.

Omul grizzly 2005
Documentar
Un documentar de exceptie al regizorului Werner Herzog, care investigheaza viata in salbaticie si moartea lui Timothy Treadwell, un impatimit al ursilor Grizzly. Filmul se bazeaza pe jurnalul video al lui Treadwell, montat de Herzog in combinatie cu propriul material - interviuri cu diverse persoane din anturajul lui Treadwell, filmari in locatiile vizitate de acesta si un monolog-naratiune care apartine chiar regizorului. Un documentar intens care impresioneaza, care pune omul fata in fata cu salbaticia si forteaza granitele dintre cele doua tabere. Legile salbaticiei sunt nescrise, dar cand Treadwell le incalca, fraudarea lor nu scapa nepedepsita.
