The documentary films that I watched are nonfictional motion pictures intended to document the reality of world war II in order to instruct or maintain a historical record. Moreover "documentary" has been described as a filmmaking practrice, a cinematic tradition, and mode of audience reception that is without clear boundaries. Therefore, those documentary films (Triumph of the will, Night and Fog...) enable me to revive the horror moments of the war. In addition, we learned from the documentaries the level of cruelty of the Nazi. For instance concentration camps were places where any kind of experiences were performed on humans and more than eight million people lost their lives. But these crimes were predictable because Hitler had in his agenda to extinguish jews' existence. Hitler accused bankers (majority jews) for being responsible for Germans' economic crises and taking out jews would be part of the solution.
However, fictional narrative films tell a fictional story, event or narrative. In this style of film, believable narratives and characters help convince the audience that the unfolding fiction is real. That's why movies like "A Trip to the Moon in 1902" was able to explain the main idea of Nihilists (want to escape the real world). Also actors must deliver dialogue and action in a believable way, so as to persuade the audience that the film is real life.
