Documentary films have the power to incite social justice movements, capture an individual's passion on film and highlight some of the most important happenings around the world. Filmmakers that pursue careers in this field are often social justice warriors at heart and most doc filmmakers have the ability to see a story's trajectory before it has even fully unfolded.
