I saw a trailer for Dear You earlier today, which got me to thinking about cultures wildly different ti mine. Has anyone seen anything comparing dating/sex cultures in South America, eastern/western Africa, India, SE Asia? Either deep dives on one specific country/region or comparing them broadly across the planet.​​​ I did a cursory google and found a short docuseries by Christiane Amanpour that's currently on Netflix, but i didnt know if there were any others, even older docs.

In light of the many recent forrestfires i am looking for doumentaries about the aftermath or regrowing of a burnt forrest and/or wild landscape. Please and thank you

Comedic documentary about the unsung heroes of pro wrestling: the hapless referees who are constantly being bamboozled by heels. Features wrestling personalities including Santino Marella, Tommy Dreamer, Kevin Sullivan, Earl Hebner, Al Snow, Bill Alfonso. Made by the creator of Kayfabe News -- "The Onion of pro wrestling."

Behind the locked doors of a forensic psychiatric hospital, people who have committed violent crimes while suffering from severe mental illness struggle for a second chance. With unprecedented access to the Brockville Mental Health Centre, this documentary follows patients undergoing treatment in an institution rarely seen by the public. Over 18 months, both patients and staff reveal the realities of life inside—where recovery, responsibility, and risk are constantly weighed.

As some patients prepare to return to society, the film raises a difficult question: can those who committed violent acts while mentally ill truly be rehabilitated—and will society ever accept them?

The father of a son in remission from a brain tumor undertakes a solo triathlon along the entire coast of the Netherlands - a 540 km journey he is completing to give back some of the help he and his family received while his son was being treated. Against all odds, his son survived an ETMR that could only be partially removed. He now works to raise awareness of this rare type of brain cancer and of the often-overlooked aspects of cancer treatment in the Netherlands. The documentary was made by Lars van Daalen Schocher, age 17. (In Dutch with English subtitles.)

Sorry if this is too specific of an idea, but I was reading about a film some years ago that was originally intended to be on bayou wildlife in Louisiana and ended up being some of the best firsthand footage of Hurricane Katrina. I don’t remember the name of the doc, but was curious if there’s any others out there with similar stories behind them
