The Unknown Known
Why this pick
Another controlled encounter between Morris and a key architect of the Iraq War, built around evasive language, power, and the gaps between official narratives and accountability.

The Act of Killing
Why this pick
Its formally daring confrontation with perpetrators and self-serving memory carries a similarly chilling concern with complicity, representation, and the stories violence leaves behind.
05
Zero Days
Why this pick
