The documentary is about much more than just Taylor Swift’s life, as it brings light to many different topics and problems in today’s society. It carries so much emotion, which makes it touch your heart and stay in your mind. The documentary highlights some struggles that Taylor is having/has had in the past, and how she got/ is getting through them.

The Dawn Wall (2017) Netflix
Mountaineers too often put their personal goals above all, so Tommy shines because he acts like a decent human being in The Dawn Wall, going beyond what might be acceptable within the climbing ethic a documentary about an amazing achievement; the other also a documentary about amazing achievement, with a human story of Tommy. What I got was an incredibly exciting and inspirational story of perseverance, love, fraternity, and integrity. I could not turn it off even for a few minutes. An amazing documentary that shows the reality of life and struggle in its raw form, without any pretense of drama to make it more inspirational. Down to earth and organic. A must watch.
Man on Wire (2012) Prime Vid
In 1974, a week before his 24th birthday, high-wire artist Philippe Petit stunned the typically cynical denizens of New York City when he walked on a wire between the towers of the World Trade Center. balancing himself over 1,000 feet in the air, Petit made eight passes between the skyscrapers over 45 minutes before his arrest by the NYPD. James Marsh’s Man on Wire uses archival footage of Petit’s training and performance—as well as staged scenes of Petit and his crew setting up the wires, constructed like a heist film—to show the artist as he planned and executed a death-defying stunt. It is also a portrait of the Twin Towers, which loomed large over New York City for nearly 30 years before the terrorist attack on September 11, 2001.
Life, Animated (2016)
Based on Ron Suskind's book about his son, this Oscar-nominated film depicts Owen Suskind who, after being diagnosed with autism at 3 years old, withdrew into a nearly silent state of being. With Suskind and his wife on the verge of losing hope that their son would have a meaningful life and the ability to connect with others, they discovered he responded intensely to the world of animated films—particularly those produced by Walt Disney—giving him a new chance to understand the confounding world around him.
Sound and Fury (2000)
This Oscar-nominated film follows the Artinians, who across three generations have deaf and hearing members in their extended family. When brothers Peter (who is deaf) and Chris (who is hearing) both had deaf children and considered giving them cochlear implants, they opened up a debate within their family—one that also exists within the deaf culture at large. Sound and Fury is a powerful look at how we create communities based on shared experience, abilities, and language, and the importance we place on where we stand within—or outside of—mainstream culture
