Documentary Unit: Hero Documentaries

I wanted to look at the types of hero documentaries there have been in the past.

I already knew of one show which was a Mockumentary  called We Can Be Heroes by Chris Lilley. It is one of my favourite shows and is an interesting take on heroes in the community and very funny.


Another documentary is a typical documentary approach that i found on youtube called 9/11: Heroes of the 88th floor. It is about the rescue attempts in the north tower.


Another documentary i found was called My Boyfriend the War Hero. This tells the story of a 16 year old girl who got engaged to her 18 year old boyfriend during a rest and recuperation period after his first tour of Afghanistan. 3 weeks later he was hit by a wire detonated bomb and lost both his legs and an arm.


Another look at hero's is to take a person and have them tell the story if their own hero. In this documentary Miranda Hart tells us about her Hero, Eric Morecambe.


Stay Safe,

Helen
