IWTW note: The opinions in the video don’t necessarily represent those of IWTW. The goal of IWTW ‘Explore’ is to inform its audience about interesting developments around the world through a selection of short and long documentaries. IWTW considers those documentaries as great starting points for further discussion. I strive to update the selection of content should ‘better’ documentaries emerge over time.
