STARZPLAY unveils hidden secrets with top-rated documentaries streaming NOW!

The generation’s content consumption habits have changed as can be seen from the emerging rise of documentary filmmaking. This could stem from a generation’s obsession with reality television, a need for non-fictional content to improve their bank of knowledge, or just the simple telling of a true story! At a glance, Documentaries can offer a world view on human psyche and behaviour that fictional storylines could miss out on and an opportunity to live a real person’s journey as opposed to a character. It could open a pathway to hidden gems and stories that wouldn’t have seen the light of the day unless a filmmaker chose to pick up the mantle.
