I am pretty omnivorous when it comes to film. I like everything from silent movies to new releases. I am fine with foreign language films. But there's one thing that I love most of all - a well crafted documentary. The Secrets of Hillsong is a great example.
It's grounded in facts and interviews. Yet, somehow, the production team managed to keep me on the edge of my seat.
I am not going to reveal any spoilers, but several times, after a major revelation, I'd think, ok, this is obviously the end of this episode- and it never was.
Many of the interviews must have been painful. I applaud those brave souls for finding the inner strength to do them.
If you love great documentaries I suggest that you see this. To me it offers a master class in how to tell a story that is both factual and gripping.
