   • Focus on spontaneity and authenticity.
3. Participatory Documentaries
   • Include the filmmaker as part of the narrative, blending their perspective with the subject matter.
4. Reflexive Documentaries
   • Examine the filmmaking process itself, focusing on the act of creation and its impact on the story.
5. Performative Documentaries
   • Combine experimental styles to emphasize the filmmaker’s personal experience and emotional response.
