I feel like I've exhausted Netflix's documentaries. What do you have to recommend that I might not have seen already?

We Shall Remain


At the heart of the project is a five-part television series that shows how Native peoples valiantly resisted expulsion from their lands and fought the extinction of their culture -- from the Wampanoags of New England in the 1600s who used their alliance with the English to weaken rival tribes, to the bold new leaders of the 1970s who harnessed the momentum of the civil rights movement to forge a pan-Indian identity. WE SHALL REMAIN represents an unprecedented collaboration between Native and non-Native filmmakers and involves Native advisors and scholars at all levels of the project.




Did you watch Ken Burns Civil War, Baseball and Jazz?

Watch Genghis Blues

Documentary about Tuvan throat singing and blind blues singer who travels to Tuva(country directly north of mongolia) to learn how to do it.

Awesome if you like blues or world music or just finding out about different/weird cultures

otherwise watch King of Kong its hilarious and kind of perturbing

Did you see "Horatio's Drive" on Netflix? I really enjoyed it. I love road movies to begin with, but imagine the difficulties making the very first cross-country automobile trip in the days before reliable cars and paved roads. And then there's the story of Bud.

You see the black and white one of the guys living in the subways of NYC? It was from the late 90s I believe. Can't recall the name, but it is on netflix streaming.

Dark Days is what it was called.

I also enjoyed Mugabe and the White African and Touching the Void.
