The best documentary I have EVER seen

Dying to tell the Story is so engaging that I have watched it hundreds of times and have yet to be bored. While its theme is a sister seeking answers to the death of her photojournalist brother, it is so much more. Journalists who range from the Bang, Bang Club photographers who were shooting during the height of apartheid to the world-renowned and much loved Christiane Amanpour are interviewed by Amy Eldon, sister of Dan Eldon who was stoned to death in Somalia.

Amy has a desire to know why her brother had to die to tell the story. His fellow journalists try to explain their need to do what they do. Each of their quests show us why they risk their lives to make sure we get the truth at any cost. From the daily conflicts in the Middle East to the seemingly never ending confrontations in Africa, we go with Amy Eldon as she seeks her answers.

Two photographers in the video have now lost their lives covering stories since the video was released. One lost both of his legs. And yet...they continue to make sure we learn the truth and see what is happening around the world where they are literally---Dying to Tell the Story.
