Yeah, I was going to embed him the trailer, but I'd rather let him discover it by himself, as that's a weird documental in itself.

But that is a theatrical documentary those get a bit more respecet then televison documentaries the Acadamey Awards has two documentary categories long and short documentary.  The Emmy's don't have a category for television documentaries as far as I know Ken Burns is the only person that ever won an Emmy for a television documentary.
