Abstract:

Nowadays, with the development of the women's rights movement and raised awareness of the importance of gender equality, feminist documentaries have more diversified forms of expression and more inclusive themes, focusing more on the living conditions and spiritual world of women groups. It is of great research value and significance to see how contemporary documentaries portray the image of women and reflect the current state of women's spirits and social status. The main objective of this research is to analyze how contemporary feminist documentaries convey their messages of empowering women

Abstract:

This article examines three digital-era social-issue documentaries – Sin by Silence, Playground, and Semper Fi – to reveal elements of cultural and narrative influence that contributed to legislative change in the United States. Expanding the coalition model of documentary’s political impact through case studies and in-depth interviews with policy subnetworks shaped for each film – policymakers and legislative staffers, advocacy group leaders, and documentary directors – this study finds that social-issue documentaries are influential for U.S. policy engagement when they are perceived as emoti

Abstract:

Introduction: The 2024 Indonesian presidential election will see significant Generation Z participation, yet unverified political information may affect their understanding. The documentary ‘Dirty Vote’ has the potential to enhance political knowledge and influence voting decisions, particularly regarding election fraud--a key concern for Generation Z voters who are active digitally but vulnerable to misinformation. Using the Elaboration Likelihood Model (ELM), this study examines how the documentary influences political knowledge, mediates voting decisions, and affects political engagement. T

In the new century, with the rapid development of digital technology, Chinese documentaries become more and more diversified.

This paper examines the distinctive power of documentaries compared to fiction films, emphasizing their authenticity.

However, the author draws on multiple scholarly perspectives to argue that the truthfulness of documentaries can be subjective, much like that of fiction films.

As a powerful supporter of mass media communication, documentary films bear a deeper social or historical responsibility than fictional images. However, historical documentaries run the risk of not being able to take on too much responsibility due to the spatial and temporal interval, for example, the comments under the documentaries on some platforms will reveal that the Hsiung-nu documentaries have not fully succeeded in guiding spectators to think about historical events with a dialectical attitude.

Abstract:

Abstract Sports have played a dual role in the Cuban Revolution. International sport competitions symbolize the revolution’s success and compose a strategy for creating social cohesion. This essay explores how Cuban sports documentaries (as well as documentaries on Cuban sports made by foreign filmmakers) represent and problematize these complementary roles. It argues that Cuban sport documentaries offer insights about the Cuban Revolution over time and provide occasions to explore the sociocultural, economic, and political challenges that Cubans have faced in the revolution’s socialist and po

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Subtitling and audiovisual translation (AVT) in general, as language practices, play a crucial role in shaping social imaginary and contributing to the construction of identities. But far too little attention has been paid to the translation of documentaries, especially those produced in the so-called “global” South and translated into other languages, such as English.
