I don't think there's a right way or a wrong way to make a documentary. There are many ways to tell a story. But what I think they should all have in common is that they inform you of something you weren't already aware of, or expand your knowledge in some way. But perhaps more important is that they make you feel something, and hopefully it is something powerful.
