On IFC
A high-spirited anthology of documentary parodies that celebrates the form itself through affectionate, technically precise spoofs of iconic nonfiction styles.
Loving parodies of some of the world's best-known documentaries. Each episode is shot in a different style of documentary filmmaking, and honors some of the most important stories that didn't actually happen.
