10 Most Disturbing Documentaries of All Time, Ranked

Documentaries should educate, inform, expose, or provoke thought, and some of the best ones do all of those things at once. A documentary doesn’t have to be objective to be a great documentary, especially if the intention is more to argue a point or show something from a particular point of view. If a movie captures some kind of reality or events of a more ordinary nature (compared to say blockbusters) and without actors, then it’s probably a documentary.
