the documentary is MEANT to be a slanted thing.

the discovery channel, the history channel, A&E, etc. have changed what a lot of people think the word means, but the lost art of old-school documentaries seems to be mounting a comeback after an absence of 20 years or so.

impartial documentary is an oxymoron. you're shooting 40 degrees by 30 degrees, pointing at exactly what the filmmaker wants you to see. he is going to use that slanted view to make a point to you.
