Contenders Documentary Kicks Off Today With 8 Nonfiction Films In The Awards-Season Race
Deadline’s Contenders Film: Documentary serves as an essential guide to navigating a diverse and dynamic field of Academy Award hopefuls.
In this humorous and poignant road movie from independent production company Nexiko Films, director Filip Hammar takes his aging father Lars on a trip to France, hoping to revive his dad’s flagging spirits. Am I Racist?, from DailyWire+, also amounts to a road movie, documenting conservative commentator Matt Walsh as he goes around the country on a mission to expose what he and director Justin Folk consider “race hustlers” — authors, educators, seminar-holders and others engaged in promoting Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. Boat Rocker Studios and Anonymous Content bring us War Game, a bracing documentary that takes viewers inside an exercise meant to test what would happen if this scenario unfolded: a losing presidential candidate enlists elements of the U.S. military and paramilitary groups to help him grab power.
